I'm working on a list designed to be Morturg's band of survivors from his Black Book testimony, and I'm having a fun time trying to make a list that complies more or less exactly with what he's stated to have in the books. Seven World Eaters, mostly axemen, a Librarian, nineteen death guard, two land raiders, a "grav-attack" so some kind of Javelin or Land Speeder and then Thallax/Magos Reductor. The rest of my list is going to be more or less normal mech, just because I do need *something* that can hurt a Land Raider.

Current plan for the infantry is that the WE contingent is six Praetorians or Heavy Breachers + Champ in a Land Raider and the Death Guard bring either multimelta HSS or Seekers for the libby to shroud.

They're a lot less tax-y in Mechanicum. A well-geared priest or magos is going to be casting cybertheurgy for +1WS/BS or S/T on a unit, shooting a melta or gravgun, fighting competently in melee and handing out high LD and Line 1-2 to their squad, so you have an Archmagos for your Apex det, 1-2 regular Magi for detachments and then 1-3 50-80pt Tech-Priests who are basically big, fancy sarges for your robots. They're expensive, but even non-fighty arcana Archmagi are going to bend most Praetors over just with sheer stats, they are worth it.
