[zohanthrope]

Im still new to 40k but i have most of this list. Next investment would be the Hive Guard, Warriors, and the Exocrine. List looks solid to me and i need to psychic barrage people in life so what yall think.

2 malanthropes are not neccessary, especially now with 6”. Custom fleet cranial channeling was FAQed to only be one psychic reroll for the whole army, not per unit so that’s also a waste.

I'd kick 1 Malanthrope (2 arent needed) and 1 Hiveguard(so that its 5 models for the purpose of some ruling benefits) and that's 185 points... a MRC+HVC Tyrant and maybe upgrading warriors to deathspitters, also maybe move the Whip to Prime? I mean prime with whip sounds better than a warrior with whip

Advice taken and thank you for it new list.
