Ok after considering some of the suggestions from before, here is what I have come up with.

Commander w/ Drone Controller, Puretide Chip, MultiSpecrtrum Sensor Suite, and 2 Marker drones 132pts

XV8 w/ 2x Fusion Blaster
XV8 w Fusion Blaster and Plasma Rifle

Riptide w/ Ion Accelerator, SMS, EWO, and VT 225ptsf
Riptide w/ Ion Accelerator, FB, EWO, and Stim, 235pts5

8x Fire Warriors 72pts
8x Fire Warriors 72pts
8x Fire Warriors 72pts

15x Kroot w/ sniper rounds 105pts

5x marker light drones 70pts

7x Pathfinders 77pts

3x Broadsides w/ HYMP, SMS, EWO, and 2x Missile drones 282pts

Skyray w/ BSF and DP 141pts

Hammerhead w/ Longstrike, submunition rounds, and Disruption pods 183pts

Aegis Defense Line w/ Icarus Lascannon 85pts

Think the hammerhead and suicide squad addressed the need for anti AV13 and AV14. The hammerhead and Skyray will both be behind the A Line enjoying a 3+ cover save. The hammerhead and suicide squad should be able to take out any stray Land Raiders or Annihilation Barges(I really hate those. I decided to keep a gun on the A line, but seeing as how I have a deep seated hatred of Heldrakes I figured the Icarus Lascannon manned by the Commander should be able to address that need. Necron Scythes shouldn't be able to weather the Skyray and Missilesides. Gave the commander Target Lock so he could man the gun and the marker drones could light things up.

I really like these changes.

I like this list a lot, I only think that MAYBE dropping one of the firewarrior squads and placing the members amongst the other groups... very easy to give up First blood on a 6 man Firewarrior squad.

You are the 2nd person to mention that, I like it. I need to pick up another box of fire warriors because I don't think I need the VT on the Riptide and could throw a couple more fire warriors out there.

And I would consider sitting the Broadsides with the Commander.... he can shoot down yer dragons and Night scythes... but can also give his buffs to the Broadsides as well, just a thought

That commander is a little wonkey with a MSSS as he wont be shooting. though it will be funny watching a marker drone fire the Icarus laz at bs 5 i think you should find some room for the C&C node as that 1 shot missing on a 1 is god awful. it also helps when you have a bunch of 1's on marker lights

LOL well when firing the icarus in interceptor mode neither the MSS or C&C Node work. I picked up the support items for when he detaches from the drones and goes to the Riptide or Broadsides.
