I am working on a new list as I am assembling my Skitarii so far I am thinking something like:

Troop:
9x Skitarii Vanguard: 2x Arc Rifles, Omnispex
1x Skitarii Alpha
9x Skitarii Vanguard: 2x Arc Rifles, Omnispex
1x Skitarii Alpha
9x Skitarii Vanguard: 3x Plasma Caliver, Omnispex
1x Skitarii Alpha
4x Skitarii Rangers: 2x Transuranic Arquebus, Omnispex (objective campers)
1x Alpha
4x Skitarii Rangers: 2x Transuranic Arquebus, Omnispex (objective campers)
1x Alpha

Elite:
6x Sikarian infiltrators
1x princeps

Heavy:
3x Onagar: 3x Neutron Laser
1x Onagar: 1x Icarus Array

Knight Detachment:
Imperial Knight Paladin

Looks pretty legit.

I don't know enough to say for sure, but how good are you vs Horde forces? I play Nids. I think I would be more worried if you had one or two Eradication Beamers...

Not convinced by the Dunewalkers. They are what 25 points less than a Knight. Go back to 5 Infiltrators and you can swap those 3 S10 Ap1 blasts for a S9 Ap1 melta Large blast and Strength D cc attacks and stomps on a more survivable chassis. I know which I'd prefer...

Whilst the solo Icarus becomes an obvious target. Yes it has interceptor but with just 1 autocannon it is not killing a flyer (and unlikely to force jink due to that coupled withthe ignores cover fire to come in round 2). I prefer Ballistarii for that role as they contribute if nothing effected by skyfire is present and you can spam nearly 5 for the points of 2 Icarus arrays.

I assume only 2 arc rifles due to only buying 4 boxes? As I'd advise going to 3 specials if taking 10 men. Some of the relics are good too particularly on the infiltrators (phospheonix, Mask, Skull and Taser are all good on him).

The basic vanguard guns are great vs nid hordes, decent number of base shots and 6s cause extra wounds.

Good amount of shots, good weaponry, the knight is always a complement I must say. A well made list.
