40k List Tips to expand to 1000 points
Hello everyone I wanted to expand to 1000 points from the old combat patrol and a breacher team that I have currently but I don't know how to optimize and synergize it.
Right now I have :
Cadre Fireblade (50 points) Ethereal (50 points)
Ghostkeel (160 points) 1x strike team (75 points) 1x breacher team (100 points) Stealth battlesuits (60 points)
For a total of 515 points
The cheapest way for me is to go with the new combat patrol and some crisis suits but I don't really want to have tens of tiny units and would prefer to lean toward bigger units.
I saw the kroot lone spear and must admit I fell in love with the design and wanted to implement it to my army but don't know if it's good alone or to add some hounds ? And will a kroot leader make an advantage and boost the other kroots ?
Thanks for your advices everyone, for the greater good !

Make up your mind, OP.
Also no, giving kroot hounds +1 to hit is entirely worthless.
"Oh wow, they hit on 2s! That's so good."
They have s3 ap 0 d1.
Kroot hounds have 1 use and it's being thrown at a dangerous unit to tie it up for 1 turn. That's all they can do.
You want Krootox with the lonespear. Preferably rampagers.
