building a 1750 list...

[dnalloht]

I'm trying to put together a 1750 list, here is what I have so far...

HQ:
Flyrant w 2x tl brainleeches @ 260
Warrior prime w 2x boneswords + deathspitter + ts + ag @ 115
Elites:
Deathleaper @ 140
8x Ystealers @ 184
Troops:
3x Warriors w vc + devourers
19x Stealers w scytals + 1x broodlord @ 350
16x Spinegants @ 96
12x Gaunts w ag @ 96
5x Rippers @ 50
Heavies:
1x Carnifex w 2x tl brainleeches + ag(its what its modeled with)
+ 1x Myspore w stinger salvo @ 250

Comes to 1656. Anything I should drop, and add?
The wings for tyrant and the pod as well as the brainleeches are works in progress...

As for a game plan... Tyrant goes after other flyers and hq's. Running the prime with the spinegants to provide synapse or the other warriors to buff them for going after harder targets. Broodlord and his stealers will infiltrate to keep enemy from getting away or to mob infantry that got dumped. Fex in pod to drop behind enemy lines and pop transports/light vehicles. Leaper to go after hq's and psychers. Gaunts to contest objectives, thinking about getting more of them. Is this a sound way to go? I don't really want to take tervigons and gants, mostly cause everyone does it, and... That's a lot of extra models to get on a budget.
Thanks for the input!

I'm considering getting a zoanthrope to give me some tank support, that or more little guys...

In my experience 19 genestealers can't hide well and will get blown apart quickly because they are a HUGE threat when they come on. I would reduce the numbers a bit and take off the ST. I am not a fan of AG on warrior primes. Proxy your spineguants as normal Tgaunts until you can get the extra bits to convert them. I find that zoanthropes do better in larger groups. So if you get one, you might as well get 2. I like mine in groups of 3, but that is because my dice hate me when it comes to psychic tests.
