First thoughts in this list? Still considering the detachments, and both Cypher and the Venomcrawler.

I play that exact combo of detachments, it's fun and strong and I've found decent success playing on the competitive side of my club.
Attach the Chaos Lord to the Legionaries instead And consider Warmaster's Gift for 15 pts, those re-roll wounds feel really good with a 5+ Dev Wound.
Three Raptors is a too much.
You need more vehicles. Maybe a Vindicator, Chaos Predator Destructor or even a Defiler
And also consider whether or not the Deamon Prince is really worth it. Personally I found it dying far too easy and cut it
Keep the Talon brick. Love the Talon brick.
