How many points is this? What is your plan to deal with vehicles or flyers? In fact what is the plan at all?

Why all those points in Fire warriors and Devilfish? Why CC upgrades on an Ethereal? Why no HS? Why no crisis or Riptides? Why no marker lights?

Why haven't you taken any of the good stuff in the codex?

1,000. Three fusion blasters+BCs on rear armor, ignore them. hide, then alpha strike. Synergy. Its a floating 5 points and nothing else to do with it. Don't need it, don't need them, would be nice but im going for quantity so my potential output outweighs the marker lights. I have.

Also carbines seem a weird choice with Ethereals. You get an extra shot at half range which with the carbines is only 9". 3 Bs3 Fusions will not kill many vehicles. Getting in behind the enemy is not as easy as you make out even with deep strike. You don't have great volume fire except debatably at point blank range. You have next to no AT and literally no AA. You've got a load of fairly survivable troops and that's it.

It seems like your list is a static gun line that fights at point blank range. This is not a good idea. Keeping the same theme this list for instance:

Ethereal: 2 Gun drones

12 Firewarriors x 6

2 Crisis: 4 fusion, 2 flamers x 2

ADL:

This gives you 72 S5 at 30" range rather than 84 at 18" then at 15" it goes to 226 S5! You go from 3 fusion to 8 and get 4 flamers to further improve your volume fire. Plus an ADL to hide behind.

That's still not a great list but has about triple the like for like firepower of your list. This is the issue with your list what does it do well?

Nice, thanks. I didn't know the ethereal ability was at half range.

Keep in mind too that S5 AP5 guns are sweet on firewarriors, but consider the math.

You'll be dishing out a lot of pew pew, but you won't be doing a lot of wounding. Half your shots will miss, and AP 5 means that most models will have a save against the shots that do hit.

You do not have any other weapon profile on your list (besides a few FB), so you're going to have trouble with certain models.

I think that you not using Crisis suits is a major drawback. As said earlier carbines aren't usually worth it. I'd recommend a Skyfire Broadside.
