Hey guys!

Well, I'd use battlescribe to configure the list.
It has the correct pt costs and allows a complete configuration of an army.

I would take the Warscythe + Voidreaper relic on the Overlord.

I would also seperate the Lokhusts into 3 units.

Maybe take a resurection orb.

Which point costs are wrong?

Isnt the 2x strength better since the worst he can hit on would be 3+?

Why would you split the unit up, if its one i can give them all a 5+ Ward Save with the Chronomancer or is it wasted on them?

Orb, yeah, those 30 points would make it nice 2k. I thougth about it, but my first guess was that the best advice i will get is scrapping half my list

the separating is for taking actions like raising banners, if you need that secondary.

You can keep the Voidscythe if you prefer the S10 over the ability.

So, sperating the Squad if I have the Secondary, otherwise keep them as 4?

Isnt the Teleport Relic better than having a Weapon which ignores Rules that have a LP loss cap? The arent that often or not?

you can have the Veil on a Chronom.

I also like the voltaic staff btw

I don't think the Chronomancers fit in with the list all that well, they work well with units that want to charge and are pretty squishy, like Flayed Ones. The Re-roll charge range is nice for something like the Lychguard to ensure they connect, however, it seems like you're using Veil of Darkness on them which would take them out of the Chronomancer's range anyway. If you want to go the Cryptek route, given what you've got, I'd advise a Technomancer to support your blob of Warriors. And/or you could give an Technomancer the Phylacterine Hive and have it support the unit of Destroyers. If you only replace one of your Chronomancers with a Technomancer, you could fit in another 5 Immortals.

While splitting the destroyers can be good for certain objectives, there are downsides. 1. They cant re-animate alone. 2. It gives your opponent a better chance at the Attrition secondary. 3. Less use of the stratagem Extermination Protocols, which is really strong, letting you re-roll all failed wounds on a Destroyer unit.
