List looks solid. Look forward to hearing how in runs.

Did you mean for the prince to be tzeentch? Magic is nice, but the combat buff to your world eaters is better.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll post my impressions as soon as I give it a try.

Actually, I didn't mean DP to run forward in most of the games. It's a kind of support unit here: rear-guard for Havocs and Cultists, anti-flyer and anti-character roles. I think that Smite and Prescience may cause more good then buffing Zerkers with re-rolls. Bike lord can join Zerkers if needed.

You shouldn't take units outside of their PL sizes due to the way tournaments (and most likely everyone after a while) are going to play Kill Points based off Power Level. Those 12 Cultists will count as 20 Cultists for the sake of PL.

I'd also replace the combi-flamers on the Rhinos with straight Combi-bolters and keep them back to use as fire bases.

I'd also use Missile Launchers instead of Lascannons on the Havocs as they do nearly equal damage while having an option to deal with infantry units.

Hm... Never heard about PL points yet. For now in local tournaments you gain points for mission objectives and for destroyed models cost difference (in normal points, not PL).

Combi-bolter are nice! Replacing Combi-flamers on Rhinos and taking normal 10-man Cultists squad will free 34 pts. Any suggestions on how to use them?

Missile Launchers vs Lascannons is a tough dilemma for me! The same as Power fists vs Chainfists. In fact ML looks more versatile while LC is better for mech-heavy meta.
