I don't know the army well, what's the draw for the Tzangors? I started making your list in Battlescribe, then got distracted and came up with pretty much a full marine list trading 18 tzangors, the shaman and the spawn for 15 more Rubrics, including one more Aspiring Sorcerer I also upgraded to Ahriman over an Exalted Sorc- I named the list Reunited, and it feels so good. Didn't do any relics or
CP spending so there's a relic choice, 12
CP, and 17 Cabal Points. I like the Cult of Duplicity for this too, anytime something gets low it can just fade away, plus with that and two Deep Striking Terminator units you've got a LOT of maneuverability. So back to my question I see a lot of people take Tzangors - what's the draw?

MW spam with his entourage, but truth be told you'd probably be better off ignoring him and wiping out the entourage. He's not much by himself it's what he does to what's around him and Morty can deny almost as well as you can. Most all of your shooting is going to put him on his invuln. I'd just Volume of Fire him down - ending it with Magnus if necessary. You didn't mention your great cult as far as I can see. That could help too, depending on which one. He should run out of Denys before you run out of Smites, so you can land those or something else on him too.
