You're points are all wrong because you haven't added any of the wargear. For example each exocrine is about 220 pts with its gear. 20 genestealers are 240 points as you need to pay 2pts each for rending claws.

Maybe point out what your tyrant and warriors are carrying as they are prime candidates for 30 point upgrades. I'd also look at dropping the genestealers to 15 points and try to get some tyrant guard for your swarm lord to soak up heavy fire as he can be picked out.

Swarmy is your big force multiplier so if an army had a devestator unit with 4 lascannons/or similar you would expect swarmy to be making a ton of invul saves. With 10 wounds, no protection and a 5++ he is going to be relatively easy to take down. sure you are in their face with trygons and stealers but I would feed you fodder units and protect my big guns from that 1st turn pop up best I could. I found that against most units 20 genestealers tended to be a little over kill. In this stage it is still early as 8th isn't technically out so a lot of trial and error lists are going to be needed. Also, odds are you aren't going to be going 1st most games so swarmy needs to be able to take a 1st turn outburst of shooting as your trygons and stealers aren't on the board yet.
