Thoughts on if this could be competitive?

Patrol (alpha legion)l:
Chaos Lord with Jump Pack
Obliterator x3 (Slaneesh/tzeentch)
Obliterator x3 (Slaneesh/tzeentch)
cultists x10

Super Heavy Detachment
Mortarion -> Miamasa, Curse of the Leper, Putrescent
Magnus -> Death Hex, Warptime, Weaver of Fates
Macharius Vulcan (where are the rules that this could be renegade + heretic?)

Battalion:
Changeling
Renegade Commander
Horrors (1x blue 9x brim)
Horrors (1x blue 9x brim)
Horrors (1x blue 9x brim)

So conceptually - batallion / horrors for bubble wrap to maximize use of changeling

Super Heavy -
Multiple threats as in any kind of competitive list will one shot any of the LoW in the first turn

Patrol -
Some dakka with alpha legion trait

Comes out to 9CP -
veterans of long war + slaneesh strat on oblits is basically the goal for all cp - throw in a handful for rerolls during the game
Mortarion to lower the toughness of surrounding enemies - was trying to get gift of chaos into the list but don't want to give up weaver or warptime. Death hex also if against another super bad can be useful as it goes off on a 6 for magnus if not injured
Vulcan sits in the back at 60 inches, essentially never moves and is bubble wrapped to prevent drop by the horrors as much as possible.

The Macharius Vulcan was added to the R&H list in the faq for The FW index forces of the Astra militarum.

The Super Heavy Detachment gives 3 CP, so it's 0+3+3.

So I think its 9 CP b/c of the 3 from batallion 3 from the super heavy and 3 from the generic all comers starting points.

Any further comment? I was actually considering bringing this to LVO (my first tourny ever). I know the vulcan is super squishy but I'm hoping the 60 inch range and bubble wrap may let it live first turn.

Going to self bump one last time as this is the list I am planning to take to LVO. Would be great if some competitive folk could chime in. Some concern about lists running 50 dark reapers as being insta gg but... will update with my results.

I thought that since they are from 3 different books that the 3 CP from battle forged wouldn't apply. But I could be wrong.

Also, you wouldn't get the legion trait for Alpha legion. So I'm confused to why they are particularly Alpha Legion.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

The Patrol is all Alpha & Chaos. So its a battle forged Detatchment and hence benefit from any Alpha Legion (Traits) WL abilities, or Stratagems.

The 3 CP from Super heavy does apply, as it is battleforged, since they all share the "Chaos" faction keyword
