My plan is Kronos gun line with Warrior assault force (they can take a beating with a -1 to hit from malanthrope, 3+ save ignore ap -1 and -2 with Jorm and enhanced resistance), rippers for objectives. 13 cps for stratagems. See anything majorly missing?

Some thoughts:

- Why make the 2nd bataillon Leviathan? Mixing 2 Hive Fleets is complicated enough that I wouldn’t voluntarily mix 3 of them without a good reason. You’re probably better off expanding your Kronos gun line with those units (gives you some screening as well).

- A proper Kronos gun line should really have 6 Hive Guard and probably an Exocrine as well, to use Symbiostorm to its fullest effect. In addition, the 18” range of the Devourers on the Fexes might not be the best choice, you might want to consider Deathspitters instead.

[No One]

As above, 6 hive guard and ditch the Leviathan detachment: you need a Synapse babysitter for them, lose a single walkrant and take -1 to hit on 4 units isn't good. The fexes probably want to be Jorm, if not definitely deathspitters: 18" range is not enough when you're staying stationary (arguably not even then with 36" range main gun).

Take the dev as a deathspitter unless strict WYSIWYG issues.

Barbed is a strong relic and should probably be in their somewhere.
