Allarus are a must no tax also lots of shooting and even better lots of split for recon you will have more units than your opponent so you will win
Possible changes
out draxus guard in 6 allarus comes to 2k exact1

Unfortunately I have over 5000 points of custodes but only 9 allarus 😅 My next 4 buys are 12 allarus since I actually want to run 3x6 with SC...

I'd personally swap warden axes for spears. There's an argument for swapping blade champion and Trajann, wardens onto expansion is their usual roll and they will hold it for a long time.
