If you take the crone you can use the extra 20 points for hive commander having the option for outflanking can be very good vs some armies.
I personaly preffer a barbed strangler over venom cannons cause its a large blast.

Quite a shooty list could get some biovores for long range crowd control, personally though I would drop a unit of warriors get a zoan and 2 dakka fexes

I'd recommend some Zoeys, but I always do...I think you can put in a Bombardment node as is....just signify that 1 Warrior Brood, one Exo, and the Biovores (that you would need to add) were a Formation, and you get some extra coolness...
Me, I'd drop the Norn crown , and spend the points elswhere as well (like on some Biovores  ) (I'd likely lose the Toxin, to get more points)

Yup, drop the Norn crown. You probably don't need it as you have 2 units of Warriors and a Tervigon. Plus the flyrants but they are moving forward I assume. Working in the Crone or Harpy is a good idea, both are pretty effective although a lot of people would agree that the Crone has the advantage. I don't really think 2 exocrines are necessary, you could try throwing a T-fex in there.

I'd drop the Norn Crown....and buy some Zoeys.( a brood of x2) Then spend the 165 or so you have left on a nice group of Gaunts or a heavy...it looks to me like you could craft a Barrage Node by transfering a Warrior Brood, a Exo, and buying a Biovore Brood.....that might give you a nice increase in Dakka (re-rolls  )
Opps looks like I posted here a while ago...
