So my group and I are trying a modified Underhells campaign.

2v2, Good vs Bad, aka Hunters vs Genestealers.

My partner is running full Malstrain, I decided to jump way out of my normal comfort zone and try corrupted Delaque.

I'd love some input on my gang since this is a lot of firsts for me.

Additional note: we're going with 1250 starting credits, 1000 normal, 250 can be trading post R10 and under. Given the awesomeness of the Delaque house list, I didn't dip into the TP at all.

 
So, where's the Malstrain/GSC corruption in this list? Looks like you could create this more efficiently using Delaque Gangers in place of hive scum and get an identical list?
 
The hive scum are in place of the Brood scum available as corrupted. They are essentially the same as hive its just that Yak doesn't have them yet.
 
Though I see your point. Juves with wen gauntlets might be far better choices.
All your scum have lasguns, a Delaque Ganger with a lasgun has a better statline and is cheaper, so it's not even about juves with web gauntlets. If you want this to be GSC corrupted you need to bring some GSC elements in, and Aberrant, some GSC psychic powers, something that makes your theme actually translate onto the tabletop
 
Ghost with a lasgun would be 55, 70 with armor.

The scum are 60 with las and armor.

Aberrants are Genestealer Cult not Malstrain.
 
Sorry, that came out a lot shittier than I meant it, you caught me after a rough night at work.

I think you're partly confusing the older GSC with the newer Malstrain and Malstrain corrupted gangs. While there are some similarities, the newer stuff is a lot cooler IMHO.
