I prefer lists two and three, just because I really like kaedes nex, but I feel like two troops isn't enough with no other scoring units. Which one is the most fluffy and which one is better on the table? Also what improvements would you suggest?

You don't really have very many Troops at all - I'd take the first list simply because of boyz over toyz.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking. This is the problem I have with 30k; there are so many cool toys that I want to use and not enough points to use them. How fluffy would you say list one is?

30k plays best at 2500 to 3k. You'll that you get there prety quickl6 once you start adding toys to your boys and you don't have a dire need for more boys at those point levels. Also choos8ng the first list although I like the second one and think it will work.

I'd never take the armoured ceramite on the sicarans. Not worth it.
