Lets go through it a bit..Shooting configuration, 2 combi weapons (good, I always save them to the last bit of list creation to top up left over points with) Autocannon but your aiming to DS them?.. will you give up shooting your combi rapid fire plas shots to take 2 rather poor shots at medium AV stuff? If your DSing and going for a blitzing landing I'd replace the reaper with 2 more combi weapons (1 st turn bang bang 6 enemy termies fall over or similar, or go for the melta and try to pop a tank) CCwise, Thats several fists.Again are you aiming to tank hunt?(MON will be redundant) why not drop one fist+ 1 champion, make the chainfist guy a champion (4 attacks on charge agaisnt a tank is going to hurt it) and have one redundant champion (maybe a combi weapon thats all)for if you really must have a greater demon.As a luxury to facing all comers maybe the heavy flamer (but really I wouldn't waste a good DS surprise on a 1 unit swarm i'd still go for a big bloke, and then in subsequent turns block up the hordy bits.)I dislike the greater demon, (he can be great coming off cheap fast troops..including your near naked termie champ), but here your looking at DSing them (who still aren't the cheapest hosts) so it will have to be your footslogging guys at the back (and he'll have to walk into mass fire to try to do anything, or you'll have to kill off your rhino squad champ that makes him cost 163 ish points and weakens that squad an awful lot.I see why the smaller demons are there (I'm probably unneccesarily harsh about demons,I know how they work and they never do it) if they do it for you then whoopee (and post a batrep saying how prejudiced I am against them without founding. But I'd prefer you mechanised your other units, or added 6 raptors for counter assualt, or put it with the greater demon points for a whole other nurgle squad or something..It depends how you invisage them
