Hey, all. Been a looooong time since I visited this neck of the woods, so I thought I'd thrown in some army lists... I've never made a Wych Cult list before, so, bear with me here.
First will be a 500 point Combat Patrol, the next will be a 1000 point list, so if I ever do decide to start these lists, they will be feasible. Comments appreciated, as always. ^_^ Commentary in blue.
500 Combat Patrol
HQ
[1] Dracite
+Agoniser
+Splinter Pistol
+Plasma Grenades
+Combat Drugs
=93 points
I didn't want to waste the Wych's special 4++ in CC by grabbing a Shadow Field (not to mention it's illegal in CP), so I just kept her cheap and deadly. I included her in this CP because I wanted a hard-hitting model without going overboard on points.
Troops
[9] Wyches
+Wych Weapons
[1] Succubus
+Agoniser
=158 points
No Raider in this CP because the CP board is pretty small, and I feel that, using FoF, I can quite easily use cover to get close enough to charge into close combat without taking too many shooting casualties.
Elites
[1] Beastmaster
[5] Warp Beasts
=75 points
I wanted to include the Warp Beasts because, while a small unit, they hit incredibly hard when they do hit. I plan on keeping these guys hidden as much as possible, since they can charge even a bit further than the Wyches.
Fast Attack
[4] Reavers
+Blaster (x2)
[1] Succubus
+Agoniser
+Tormentor Helm
=186 points
I wanted a speed element in this CP, to be wherever I need them to be. Reavers give that to me. Also, they will prove invaluable if I ever come up against those pesky Terminators in a CP.
Total Points: 497
Total Models: 22
Total Agoniser/Blaster Ratio: 4/2
1000 point list coming soon!
edit: And the 1000 point list:
1000 Wych Cult
HQ
[1] Dracite
+Agoniser
+Splinter Pistol
+Plasma Grenades
+Combat Drugs
=93 points
Troops
[9] Wyches
+Wych Weapons
[1] Succubus
+Agoniser
[1] Raider
=213 points
[9] Wyches
+Wych Weapons
[1] Succubus
+Agoniser
=158 points
I didn't give both squads a Raider because I wanted to have a "first wave, second wave" approach. The first wave will be the two squads of Reavers and the squad of Wyches with their Raider. The second wave is the Warp Beast pack, this Wych squad, and the Dracite running along with them. I'm hoping the speedy element of the army will be able to tie up the units which present the most shooting threat to the second wave.
Elites
[1] Beastmaster
[5] Warp Beasts
=75 points
[10] Warriors
+Dark Lance (x2)
=100 points
Do I even have to explain the sniper squad? Ha. These guys are here for that odd vehicle that the Reavers shouldn't be messing with, as well as just a cheap and very effective scoring unit.
Fast Attack
[4] Reavers
+Blaster (x2)
[1] Succubus

Opinions appreciated!
