Vanguard Wing 200

Thoughts: This is a spin off of the Vegas open winning list which fielded a vanguard wing with a Stardrake with Staunch Defender. I wanted to bring in more buffs instead of the 2+ rerolling 1s blob of liberators. Basically Stacks the Lord Celestant's command ability with the effect from Bless Weapons (make an extra attack) and Bearers of the Storm (hit roll of 6+ make two wound rolls), in addition to the +1 to hit from Lay Low the Tyrants.
The prosecutors are OK. I find the hammers are worst than spears, but fielding both gives me some lee-way.
The biggest part of this battalion is it's ability to place the blob of Liberators within 3" of enemy units.
Options are to swap out several heroes to field a lord on stardrake and using staunch defender as a trait to make the liberators crazy tanky. Susceptible to Mortal wounds.
your thoughts?

well playing against it yesterday I think it's incredibly effective.
the ability to just pick up those liberators and put them anywhere straight into combat with all those buffs is crazy good. Other than mortal wounds, or hitting it before the buffs hit there's not a whole lot of counters. I got lucky taking out about half the squad first turn but it STILL wrecked face regardless.
All those defensive buffs, the ability to redeploy and not be pinned down, solid shooting and hits like a truck in close combat buffed up.
super solid!
