So taking a break from my super competitive list and playing something with out 4 riptides i would love to hear feedback and reason on why i should change something . Do not just say that sucks and not give a reason, thanks in advance.

Heavy- 2x broad sides with SMS and HYMP / EWO

fort- ADL with comms
total - 1841
trying to steer away from the meta with that said i intend to use this list with the broadsides going behind the ADL with path finders and 1 squad of fire warriors and riptide Farsight deepstrikes were i want him and since the PR does not have to be on table at start i place them first then have my 20x kroot come on the edge right next to me with the suites being able to TL out iam sure i can pop a tank or 2 with TL and tank hunters and hurt some infantry while im at it then ill spread out with jump moves
again not made to be super competitive as i i normal play competitive please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions which would be of some help and if you change something please list your reason behind it thanks

Ok, I can't really understand your bodyguard unit, what are tl drones? And by my reckoning you have 4 tl drones, 8 gun drones and 2 shield drones? That's 14 drones to only 5 suits which is illegal as you can only take 2 per suit. I would drop some of the gun drones and put them as missle drones with the broadsides. Gives them a lot of extra punch. Also if you want a hbc riptide you really want one from the farsight enclaves as the earth pilot array is amazing for them and actually a makes them playable. Being able to reroll any 1's (gets hot) and also re rolling failed nova reactor rolls, is awesome or novaing the burst cannon for 12 shots a turn. Also if you want to outflank the kroot I would split them into 2 squads of 10 and put a hound in each to give them acute senses so you can re roll which board edge they come in on. As for your fw's I would make 1 squad a 12 man because units of 6 don't really have enough firepower to cause any damage. A unit of 12 however with marker light support is a different story.

TL = target lock also i don't need to reroll the edge kroot come in so long as the body guard with the relay is with in 6 inch of a board edge they auto come in on that side even if its the enemys deployment zone with out rolling for sides

Ah okay, but what happens if you fail the reserves roll for your bomb and pass for your kroot so they have to come in first?
