Trying to find a list to maximize secondary scoring. Lemme know what you think.

Leviathan battalion
Swarmlord, catalyst, onslaught
Flyrant, talons, - 1 tw, +D3 A wlt, +D3 A spell, rr hits spell, size
Flyrant, blades, scream, parox, size

3 warriors, link

Any number of links are allowed in list building. Use of links are restricted to a certain number during the command phase based on the battle size.

I would suggest trying a unit of 3 raveners instead of the 4th warrior unit. They may be more successful at performing some of the new mission objectives.

3 raveners only gives you a 3of6 chance of doing RND. The warriors, though they don't have natural DS or the speed of raveners, do get -1 on the roll, so have 4of6 chance of completing it.

[zimko]

RND is the ONLY secondary that cares about having 5 or 6 models. All the missions objectives and the other secondaries just need 3+ models or any number of models. Some of the mission objectives give you benefits to using an 'objective secured' unit, which the Raveners can become for 1 CP.

I think that's a good trade-off for 12" movement and built-in deep strike. With Metabolic Overdrive, these guys can move 24" and still perform an action.

Thinking of swapping a Bdule for an Sdule and a Flyrant for a Harpy and a Neuro for even more primary/secondary denying/ scoring.

Swarlord
Flyrant, talons, size, - 1 relic
Neuro, Neural lobe/ free psy action relic?

Void Crown is very strong imo, and is generally worth inclusion as Warp Ritual and Mental Interrogation are pretty easy with it. I think the 2x Flyrant/Barbed is better unless you are looking to always take a Psychic secondary, in which case the new list with VC is worth the change. I think the new one is missing ~50pts though, so maybe bump the Warriors to 4x units or add another 3x w/o Link?
