RE sliver Towers - oops I didn't notice they had changed and was using them at 325 for 4 still sorry. At 90 each (so 360-540) I'm not sure I'd take them as they are so vulnerable, but on the other hand their weapons are pretty powerful so they need to be worth a fair few points. If they are too much more expensive than Landraiders though then those become a more attractive option and fill a similar role. Uncertain.
They dropped in points coming from 360 point for 4 and went to 325 points for 4 like in the cult lists. And they work like that in the Thousand Sons list as well. I have uploaded the newest list (6.1.1) in the first post. Army forge is up do date as well.

Re Deceivers, I've found that even single BM shut them down too easily when they are in formations with no other shooting. So your points on the Deceivers shooting and AA ability is wasted in Rubric formations much of time. And Deceivers slow down armour formations or mounted Rubric formations.
Your are right about the suppressing. And the slowing down. I use them in the blitz guard formation.

If they were in their own formation like in Black Legion etc, they would have more of a role but presently they are best left on the shelf in a competitive list I think.
I will think about it a little bit more. Defilers are a Black crusade thing like some of Abbandons little toys.

Re: Vindicators not sure what is proposed.
I thought about adding them to the rubric Fellowship as an upgrade. But there is the slowing down and the suppressing argument like the decivers. But cheaper. But I don't wand to add something nobody is using.

Reading through the list more carefully again I see Daemonic Pact gives you a free Daemon too in 6.02, didn't realise that, makes the Daemons definitely more attractive I think.
Daemonic Pact is the common epic rule like in all the other lists. I just put all special rules regarding the thousand sons in one document.
Cheers,
