The plan is as follows basilisk focus on taking out heavy armor and mass formations of 3+. The two punishers shoot at anything that is on foot or bike. putting out 64 shots a turn. The Hell hound and the flammers advance on a flank and flame it. fateweaver and the deamon prince move around togeather casting physic powers and vector striking 2+ armor targets. The infantry platoon and the horrors will bubble wrap the tanks if someone trys to deep strike. The pskyker will try for a 4+ invul save to cast on the tanks other wise will take prescience. what do you guys think?

Looks pretty good, only thing your lacking is good AA, which unless your LGS metas is ruthless won't be a problem. And i'm guessing your Ap2 is coming from pask's punisher?

I would drop pask, add a priest to your platoon.
add in and throw in a few flamers with the platoon, or snipers.
You dont want the bubble wrap on your tanks to run and break, and pask is over rated.

Correct, it is coming from pask's punisher and vector striking with the two flying deamons.

Well vector strikes are Ap3 so not fantastic, but pask can throw out some rending goodness in 24".

Punishers force a ton of wounds for 40 points the rending is not worth it. Forcing a ton of wounds is one way to beat 2+ saves.
paying 40 points for the rending is redundant. with pask you are averaging about 2-3 rending a turn after your rerolls. Is that really worth 40 points? you could almost have 3 plasma guns for guaranteed 3-6 ap2 shots a turn.

Also are Demon Princes not MCs? their CC attacks are ap2.

Daemon princes are MC, but their Vector Strikes are Ap3, their CC attacks are Ap2 (hint read the BRB).

Also Pask is worth it in case you need that Ap2, and/or you need to take out a tank, like wave serpents.

Its not worth it. the math does not add up. I was being sarcastic. I know princes CCs are Ap2. Rending is a very inefficent way to deal with armor. Shooting a punisher at a tank is a waste. Pask will buy you 4 meltas for your PCS and you would have 10 points more left over.
