Barbed Dule seems out of place in the Behemoth detachment, would prob better in Kronos. You at least get some benefit if it stands still and can hit it with Symbiostorm if the Exo gets blasted. Although, I think I would scrap it to fit in a Neuro/BL w/ Res Barb to more reliably cast Unstoppable Hunger and place Dermic on the Scythed Dule. Swarmy is a great place to stick both Catalyst/Paroxysm, and Tyrant can take “the helpful but not needed” powers.

Thank you for the feedback. Right now our league is only at 750pts so I'm trying to test parts of this list. Do you think hive Guard are worth it for the points?

[piersonsmuppet]

Hive Guard work fine at 750 pts, but I’d suggest to run 3-5 to keep them from being too large a portion of the army. If you go the full 6, your games will just revolve around if the opponent can kill them T1/2 or not. Could be in your favor, but too many eggs in one basket for my taste though.
