Specifically, do you need to run the Archon that allows you to take them as a choice as part of the unit or can I have them run on their own w/ 1 Medusae, 1 Lhamaean, 1 Ur-Ghul, and 3 Sslyth so that the unit is toughness 5?

The shooting from the wave serpents is the MVP here. the only draw-back is deploying them to get shot at first turn when i go 2nd.

Depending on the opponent, terrain and mission i might outflank the walkers, spiders and bikes.

If it looks really bad i might even reserve the serpents, but generally they can survive the first round, hopefully getting ruins cover saves.

The re-rollable 2++ on the farseer almost insures he’s a waste of shooting.

This list just went 3-0 at a tourney up here vs. Guard BA and DE. even causing a small amount of rage-quitting
