First, you need to get rid of the point cost for all the upgrades. Thats a no-no.

You are probably going to get flak on here for running a haruspex, but i dont have the animosity for the guy like some people on here. That being said, you are probably going to get more milage out of podding a dakkafex instead. Keep the pod for him, since the majority of your ground forces are built to hunker down, he will get focused down quickly.

Skyblight is a solid formation choice, though you need to have wings on your skyblight tyrant in order for the formation to be legal. A flyrant is so significantly better that you would want wings on it, even if you didnt have to.

Not much to add...the Tyrant does not show having wings. If you need points, the Norm Crown is an overpriced source of points. That should leave 5 points left over to spend some place.

Yeah, hard to love the Haruspex, in a pod or otherwise. It kinda depends on what figures you own, but if it was me...I would bag the Haru, and the Pod, add in the 5 points left over from the Crown and buy a Mawloc. That leaves 100 points to spend.

Plenty of good options...Malanthrope, and an upgrade of 15 points on a HQ...? x2 Zoeys...? A Warrior Brood (x3, Strangle Cannon)...? Notice that all these choices are Synapse. That does two jobs at once.

If you could trim 40 more I'd run Two Mawlocs. Mawloc gives you that backfield threat you are looking for, does a S6 AP2 large blast, can hit Invisable foes etc...(Mawloc fanboy ) And is a fair MC when not burrowing as well.
