Baneblades are solid but dont feel like a threat. Just solid at holding ground i feel. Seams alright to me to far.
Ill keep playing the skitarii to slow work them out. Do feel they need some cheaper aircraft.
Guard - 1550

As Norto mentioned i tried out cheaper Baneblade Companies. The discount of 150 points gave me an extra activation in the form of thunderbolts.

With this cost i could see them bring used more in lists. 3 baneblades on OW on the guard players blitz won't be an easy target to shift.

The Skitarii list have to many expensive units and would really need access to a cheaper transport choice. The EpicUK list has Gorgon for 75p, maybe they could be used as a 100p upgrade?

Thanks for the report! Skitarii won't be getting cheaper transports though, that's one of the core drawbacks the army is designed around. You do get access to a fairly cheap alternative to the gorgon with a corvus based minorus. I'd be willing to think about other tweaks to help them work better without cheaper transport.
