Devilgants aren’t worth the pts, run spinefists if you want the extra shots in gorgon. That said, with the gant units it could be worthwhile to run the tervigon in the list vice the exo or tfex you have it. You’d probably want to run the gants as 30/10 or 25/15 if so.

Gargs are probably better as 10 to avoid max shots from blast.

I’d seriously consider Territorial Instincts over the 1rr wound, you are light on obsec and giving the mal/tfex/tyrant 5-model obsec can have a much bigger impact than 1 rr (exo doesn’t capitalize on obsec much, so could be a good trade out for Terv if switching to TI).

Your pts are outdated as well, Zoans/warriors/tfex/tguard/Neuro are below what they should be.

Also, drop the claws on tguard. They are horribly overcosted.

If you swap to TI, i’d trade Shardgullet for Pathogenesis. The rr’s make it a better choice into most targets.
