So my main army is Necrons, but I was thinking after I am satisfied with the amount of Necrons I have I'd like to dabble in Thousand Sons(I'm finding that I have a liking to slow Egyptian themed armies I guess ). Anyway, I would probably go for a 2-3k point total army, with this list as a base. What do y'all think? Doesnt have to be super competitive as I am not a tournament type person, but I'd still like the list to do alright; so feel free to critique and let me know. I know scarab occults and rubrics aren't necessarily the best, but I just love their models. Also, I am still thinking about the powers/ placement of them so any recommendations on that would be greatly appreciated(as I am pretty new to 1k sons).

Predators are OK, but they highly rely on Killshot. Opponent pops one of them, the efficiency drop.

Thanks for the reply! That makes sense, honestly I just chose predators because they seemed like the most obvious choice since my list was seriously lacking AV. What would your suggestion be for a replacement? Some AV hellbrutes would be pretty cool, and would free up some points. Could run that as a vanguard detachment or something.
