I ran a bunch or jorgmunda dakka fexs with some success. 2x twin devourers with brainleech worms, sporecysts monstrous acid maw. The maw caught people out a few times. If your jormugnda you dont really want to advance as you lose the bonus to save. 2+ on a fex really helps it survive, particulalry with the build in -1 to hit.

YOur better off going leviathan for suitability. You get the 6 up FnP even if you move where as you lose it with jorm.

I was looking at doing a list very very similar to this, but as leviathan. Let me know how it goes.
