Looking at your list you have too many big guns, id take a maximum squad of scatter bikes as your anti horde and either deepstrike them first turn to protect from alphastrike or hide them if you can, then cast conceal on them. Your original list has no good targets for conceal.

Also try and fit an autarch in here for the re-roll bubble on your gun line. Id probably drop the lynx and matrix off the hornets for points. Any spare go for more spiders.

Honestly... not a fan of the Lynx, points wise I think Fire Prism is a better buy.

I agree but I'm limited by my models to what I can use. Though fire prisms will be bought in the future.

@pilchard8

How does this look? Dropped the Lynx, one war walker and all the CTM on the hornets, added in the 9 biker unit which I'll deep strike, Autarch for reroll 1's, additional Warp spider unit and combined the Warlock into a conclave so I can use the double range psychic stratagem.

Great, just one thing, your warlock conclave loses the character status and you dont really need double range when your on a jetbike. Split three fast choices up and a spare hq to make another outrider for 1cp. Also i wouldnt pay a cp to add another medicore relic, you lack cp anyway and with key stratagems like reflexs etc. Need all you can get. Good luck!

I didn't realise they lost the character rule so that sucks! There's a particular reason for the double range stratagem and that's cause of list I know will be taken this tourney consiting of Magnus, morty and FW bloodthirster angrath. I need to be able to cast over 24" to prevent them from denying as they get strong bonuses to deny which basically shut down my physio phase. And getting jinx off on one of those models means I'll likely be able to kill it in one turn!

Can't have another outrider detachment as the tourney I'm going to doesn't allow duplicate detachments unfortunately.

Did mean to have the two relics tbf, forgot to remove the Phoenix gem from my Farseer.
