Hey all, havent seen many GSC lists around the net world much - thought I would throw mine up for critique:

Genestealer Cult Insurrection list - 1850

Command
First Curse- 20x Genestealers, Patriarch w/ ML2, Familiar

Lord of the Cult- Acolyte Iconward w/ Icon of Cult Ascendant

Core
Neophyte Cavalcade- Leman Russ BT
12x Neophytes w/ 2x flamers, Chimera (ML/HF)
12x Neophytes w/ 2x flamers, Chimera (ML/HF)
3x Sentinels w/ 3x Autocannons

Auxillary
Subterranean Uprising - Primus w/ Sword of the Voids Eye
8x Acolytes w/ 1 Rocksaw
8x Acolytes w/ 1 Rocksaw
5 Metamorphs (2x Claws, 2x Whips, 1 Talon)
4 Aberrants

Doting Throng- Magus w/ ML2, The Crouchling
14 Neophytes w/ 2 Mining Lasers
15 Neophytes w/ GL, flamer, Seismic Cannon
12 Neophytes w. 2 flamers

Concept: Pretty straight forward; swarm the enemy! I did fairly well with it the first time out as a pure GSC army. One big lesson I learned was despite the sheer awesomeness of the Cult Ambush table dont assume your opponent wont get lucky on a seize the initiative roll ...
I play a lot of Maelstrom and can see this army being quite proficient at it, despite no ObSec in the detachment. Highly recommend the First Curse formation - holy smokes is it deadly! Thinking I might minimize the Doting Throng a bit in favor of some hand flamers on the Acolytes.

Any thoughts, questions, critique welcome...
