First of all, heres the list I have been running:

Lord- MoK, Axe BF, Juggernaut, AoDG
Spawn-x5
CSM-x10, 2 Plasmaguns, Powerfist
Rhino- Dirgecaster, Dozerblade
CSM-x10, 2 Plasmaguns, Powerfist
Rhino- Dirgecaster, Dozerblade
Cultists-x10
Havocs-x4 Autocannons

This list leaves me with 35pts to spare, and I have just been switching it out each game, I can't really settle on what to do with it, but thats not the issue.
My issue is that I have been playing alot of Nids and Tau. I feel that at low point games, the CSM really lacks if you try and do a mixed, take all comers list. I don't have enought close combat guys to take on the Tau, or even get across the board for that matter. With the nids, I kill more, but I just get completely swamped.

I want to keep the lord and spawn, but otherwise I am kinda open to suggestions. I don't necessarily want to do Heldrakes, because of Tau and alot of fortifications, but if need be, i will get one. Can anyone help? I really think a singularly focused army will be the best bet at the low points.

Pregame you roll 3x times on telepathy trying your hardest to get invisibility. It turns that units into a true deathstar. If you can't roll up invis put the sorc in with the CSMs, no need to lose Fleet if you aren't making them invisible. Reserve the cultists because they are pathetic, the heldrake and deathstar unit pwns all newbs.
