This seems like a really good list for Hypercrypt Legion. I dont think it's taking full advantage of the Court detachment. You don't have to run a monolith in Hypercrypt as you can use CP for reanimation protocols after you bring units back to reserves. Ctan are pretty slow so I worry you'll spend the first turn or 2 just getting up the board with them. Hypercrypt can solve that issue.

[Jack Shrapnel]

I tested first with hypercrypt but honestly after turn two there was not much need to teleport things around.

Yeah, I think if you're going heavy on the destroyers (heavy and otherwise), deathmarks and D.Arks the teleportation might be more useful. But with C'Tan etc I'm finding you want them in combat ASAP so they only really teleport once.

My game against Iain, Szeras when up against a hive tyrant, 3 warriors and a prime and a psychophange. And he didnt die. I find the doom stalkers are okay even with the rerolls, but their issue is once they are tied up, they are useless. They take forever to die thanks to the 4++ but you kind of loose its use of the doom cannon. For 135points id rather take with your list, a destroyer lord and another heavy destroyer for both squads instead of the canopetk doom stalkers.

But if you do that then there isnt a real need to run the court.

I think the big winners for canopetk court are wraiths and plasmancers. Scarabs are also good, but need the cryptek support.

Id like to see canoptek court with just canopetk stuff to see if it is useful. Ill guess that my next test. Sorry for hijacking this thread.

[Jack Shrapnel]

You're probably right on that one... it's like I have half of a list for each detachment but not enough of a certain model to really benefit from any of them (no monoliths for hypercrypt, no wraiths for canoptek court, not really anything for the overlord one)

hmmm... is this like my nids where I just end up sticking to the index? lol

[cmcd]

After my game with Nick I realized that Monoliths are necessary for hyper-crypt legion. And as many units with Deep strike. Looking at you Ophydian Destroyers

Lokhust Deatroyers have never had a home (in any edition)
And Ctan shards are the same they can go in any

I think there is something too not using a list for its intended purpose. I like any battleline with plasmamancers for the court.

For your list i think the court is the best option. Though the awaken Dynasty is also a good choice for your C’tan.

Its hard to find a good detachment for that many C’tan.
