Carnifex w/ 2x TL Devourers with Brainleech Worms =150

Fortification
Imperial Bastion w/ Comms Relay =95

Hide the Flyrants behind the Malanthrope occupied Bastion.

Undecided on two or three Flyrants - or changing two Rippers to 15 Gargoyles

I think a 3rd flyrant would be better than a dakka fex in a pod. Maybe drop a pod, dakkafex and the comms relay as you would only have one pod then to worry about getting in.
Some food for thought. 3 flyrants at 1250 would be nasty for a tournament especially if you think you will see knights as the extra E grub is nice.
