HQ:

Bionics isn't neccesary, so if you needed pts elsewhere you could take off Bionics. On your Lord, I suggest switching Essence for Resilence so he can't be killed as easily. Also, take out the Combi-bolter and switch it for a CCW and Bolt Pistol.

HS:

You could add Smoke Launchers to your Predator and take off Bionics on your HQ. Then you'd be at exactly 1000 pts (if my memory on the pt cost of bionics is right).

You wouldn't have to do it, but in tournies it'd get you within the pt limit.

Well, you have gotten solid advice, so I have little to add.

Why stature? I mean, you have the most expensive powerweapon in the codex, and then buy a very expensive upgrade that as one of the benefits has that you ignore armor saves.

I would go with a non-statured lord with crozius. Give him strength and resillience, but drop bionics and essence. Your non-statured lord can then "hide" among regular troops and thus be safe from shooting until you chose to spring him. D-speed and infiltrate would work wonders for such a lord.

Not so good. My personal oppinion is that plaguebearers are sub par compared to daemonettes and bloodletters. Since you already have bloodletters I would much rather have a group of 9-10 daemonettes.

well I think ill change my lord to nearly exactly arrizars suggestion but without infiltrate, but how is it possible to have 3 weapons which is what IAm~Angel said, I will take daemonettes but only 7 as i dont know where to find the points for the extras.
