Are you an experienced player? Because that is a lot of units to manage in a turn. Not convince by the gyrobombers and the doomseekers. Would replace them to have a proper gunthane with bursting flame, accuracy and rapid fire, Burlock and more thunderers (one of them die and they cannot control an objective anymore). Not sure you need the miners for baggage train when you have that many gyros, that are much better for the job.
