So, I was deep striking Rotigus and the two Plaguebearers units. With the changes to deepstrike I'll have to rethink that. My only games have been against a tough mobile gunline DE list. Won one of them by a large margin, lost the other 25-28. We're using the ITC missions. I rely a lot on board control. Any thoughts on strategies against armies that have tough melee units like Custodes or Grey Knights? I feel like I spend most games chasing people. Not sure what to do when they can actually kill me in melee lol.

I would think that a spoil pox scrivener would be in order maybe with the piper as well. They make your massed plaguebearers better.
