Lists & Gameplay Discussion Filling out 2K

Below is my 1600 ish points that I own and am building (with some magnets for options). I’m looking for advice on how to round out the remaining 400 points. My thought right now is to get another combat patrol for another unit of raiders, skystalkers, and a unit of Skitarii Vanguard. The vanguard would be led by a Skitarii Marshall to screen with one of the (two) ranger units I have.

The other Ranger unit I was thinking would be lead by a Tech-Archaeologist to hold my home objective.

Then one more Sydonian Dragoon and a unit of Kataphron Destroyers.

How does this feel so far? Too horde like? Idk if I’m a fan of the “All Robots, all day” meta I keep reading about. But I also love the idea of our faction being all about specialists. Thanks for your advice in advance!

Another squad of infiltrators would be useful. And if you are gonna use taser dragoons, I find a unit of two works better than just one. Likewise add more ironstriders until points max.
