List below - Roll on divination with the Psykers, if I get that 4++ I will take it anything else gets turned into Prescience and then I roll on biomancy. PCS will be deployed on the ground if I can get them behind a wall, depending on the situation I may put them in the vendettas. Priests will roll with the blobs to make them fearless and decent in CC. The whole list (save the wyverns) will press forward. I am missing a company command squad in a chimera, might ditch a vendetta to achieve that. Blast templates will be a problem, but with good spacing I should be able to reduce the amount of hurt on my blobs.
I have 10 points left, thinking about relic plating on the pask punisher.

Just playing devil's advocate here, but what would you do if you came up against another army with lots of antihoard? (Such as their own Wyverns)
Your Vendetta's won't turn up for at least a turn, maybe more, and the troops would have to be moving forward to deal with the arty, leaving them possibly without cover.
Other than that, it looks pretty decent. Plenty of troops and target saturation for the enemies guns, good antiair with the Vendetta's and decent antihoard with the Wyverns and forest of lasguns, although, as you said, the lasguns would be more effective with a CCS, particularly with FRFSRF.

I have been considering replacing the exterminator with a standard battle tank to help me pick of long range targets.

FRFSRF is available to me with the PCS, in addition I will have forward for the emperor, and Move! Move! Move!, to provide some mobility. The reason I will miss the CCS squad is that I won't be able to deny cover.
I also hope with the PCS being on the ground, that many opponents will be tempted to use their anti-horde on them to try and score first blood. Yes I lose the VP, but it might regret it late game.

Idea, spend 20 points on a com relay (re-rolls reserves).

Would it need to be 70 pts? 50 for adf and then 20 for the relay?
