The idea is to focus on midboard with a Cawl/Vehicle deathstar and threaten characters and board edges with precision or deepstrike.

This is also mostly just made up of random odds and ends I've bought on a whim, so if it looks a touch ramshackle, it's because it is.

Also it isn't Horus Heresy Mechanicum, so I can't be arsed to excite myself over collecting them.

This one's literally just for discussion, and to see if my listbuilding theory makes sense.

I've got a Myrmiddax Archmagos and Myrmiddons for killing things.

Allied Skitarii for Line/Objectives, with added Armour and a pair Vulturax for more punch.

Finally, a Knight Asterius. Mostly because I could, and I want to know how people feel about the unit as an ally.

Is anyone taking the Servitor Battleclade in lists? I like the idea of a dedicated action-monkeigh for narrative gameplay (the idea of competitive gives me indigestion) but I'm curious how people feel about them.

Additonal unrelated, has anyone taken Thulia Ghuld out for a spin yet? How is our grumpy grandmother doing?
