I am new to playing the Custodes my main army is Tyranids so is this quit a contrast list building wise. The 5 Custodes with the Vexilla are footslogging. The other two 5 man squats go in to the LR. I am not sure if I will keep the Guardian Spaers. The 3++ for two more points is just too good.

What do you think about my list? What would you change?

Any ideas?

Well, you have 2battalions, each need 2 hq choice, so this list is not valid.

Nah, thats just battlescribe being annoying and always separating them. The 2 pyskers will be the 2 HQs for the overall detachment (i believe).

Going to be very hard for most armies to remove your units, however, I’m a little concerned about your ability to potentially score objectives early on.

Things like smite spam as well, could cause you major issues and is pretty common right now.

You need another 2. It's two HQ each.

There's only one battalion.

I see.

Yes battlescribe is a bit confusing. I changed the OP.

I was planing on sniping the enemy Psykers. This list is meant to be casual. We usually don't play excessive spam in our gaming group. My opponents would likely be CSM, AM, and SM.
