Yeah I really like it, I found think breachers with dark strider is a good mix. I'd probably combine the pathfinders into one squad, to increase your chances of going first.

I'd probably go more stealth suits over the plasma/fusion crisis suit unit, but that is personal preference and that I think the breachers/Ghostkeels will deal with most units you require plasma for.

Flamers hide behind Devilfish, everyone advancing turn 1. Y'Vahras and Commander alpha strike while I take control of the mid-board. Thoughts?

Hello Shrike!

I'm not sure that flamer crisis on foot is the way to go. I'm just not sure that they will make it in range unless they are coming in via homing beacon.

Maybe replace flamer crisis with vespids or plasma crisis to augment alpha strike.

Also, when alpha striking, I've found that it is definitely worth it to take the max number of drones.

Otherwise looks very solid to me! Fish get a LOT of mileage.
