So sorry, but it is for a tournament. Could have gone Wraithknight but I don't have one.

3 D-Cannons won't cut it as your high-end AV. They are to short ranged and will probably die to any dedicated ranged firepower. I would recommend dropping a unit of Scatbikes and kitting out all the Talosi with Haywire Blasters, that way the unit will be reasonably scary towards Knights which would normally cleave through the Talos. It also makes them relevant earlier in the game.

True that. What if I took some Swooping Hawks? Bit of AA and more Haywire. Also work well for Maelstrom by DS wherever needed.

Don't see how you could make the points, i suggested Haywire Blasters since it's easy to slip into your current army. Scatbikers for Haywire, straight swap. Also even then Haywire Blasters are better, because they are range 24 while hawks have to be in melee. They are also twin-linked, so you will likely get 1-2 glances through even against fliers.

Haywire on the talos is cute and all, but I'd prefer keeping them with splinter cannons. Much more reliable versus flyrants. Ditch the d-cannons for a unit of hawks and more spiders.

Hell, if this is three source, you could always take an aspect host of spiders and hawks as you see fit. BS5 is strong. Good luck.
