90+ models!

I don't think I've ever seen an army that large. I've also never seen a Cult list so I'll comment more after I look up the units.

One question: can you shove the genestealers in the rhinos? Cultists with flamers are genius, Lascannons I'm not so sure about. You might be better with missile launchers for the Ork theory (It's going to hit SOMETHING...).

[Simon]

I want for lascannons for the penetration. Three of them should be able to hit something and actually dent it.

Genestealers in Rhinos is a viable option (nothing against it in the rules) and fits in the background (the stealers follow the Patriarch and the Magus lets the patriarch understand human culture so he can fight it... You get the picture)

[LukeG]

I'm still thinking Orks here, they really can't hit anything to save their lives...
Only testing will tell. Concentrated fire should dent some hulls.

Get the heavy bolters!! aiiiii!

[El Capitan]

Im just really intersted to see a Cult army. I imagine they can be pwoerful forces and would make an excellent compliment to a standard Tyranid host for variance of play.
Remember the old cultist rhino's in WD that had bulkheads as part of their sides, they were quite fitting....
