Basically, guard sits in the back and scions alpha strike (Valkyrie with melts or hot shot volley guns squads depending on what I need to kill first). Other squads deep strike. I am really wondering if I should use a different regiment from kappic eagles (only Valkyrie squad will get + 1 to hit and only hot shot volley squad will use heavy weapons with no penalty), for instance +6" to hit with rapid fire

 

Don't know what to do with remaining 8 points. I am flexible with everything (regiments, relics, traits....) Even wanted to use armoured sentinels but I don't know what to remove. Only limitation is I only have 1 flyer.

 

I still feel like this list does not use synergies very well so I gladly take your advice.

 

Thanks for the tips in advance!!

Seems like it can put out a lot of damage

I've never run max squads of Scions (ever?) but will be curious to see how you go with them especially if theres decent terrain for them to camp in
