Looks pretty good. What adaptations to you have on things? Enhanced resistance and/ or dermis symbiosis? Have you playtested it yet?

[dangertramp]

I play tested it with two exocrine I put dermic symbiosis on them however I felt like I wasn't getting enough out of two exocrine. So I dropped one and added a second unit of zoanthropes. Yet to play a game with the list as is but I feel good about it

[gribblybaby]

I’m assuming Dermic symbiosis is on the exocrine?

The only thing that doesn’t quite jive with me is the Warriors. 6 of them means hey have to stay formation and they’re more vulnerable to blast and without venom cannons or primes they’re not providing much punch either. And I assume they’re taking your second adaption?

The way I see it you might be better off trying to find a melee threat in order that you might be able to extricate a unit if it gets caught in melee. The trouble being working out what that unit might be, I thought perhaps old one eye for the protection his character profile affords him. Or even a Broodlord

The other option I would say might be 3 Biovores and a lictor more mortal wound spam, some board control and plays the objective game.
