I may be off by 30 points here and there, since i haven't found the EXACT list.

   1 Mawloc, = ( Toxin Sacs )

Heavy Support: Mawloc (1#,)

[Chuckles, The Space Marine Clown]

Mostly looks fairly standard. Mawlocs are an unusual choice, especially with Toxin Sacs. For the points I'd probably just take max broods of biovores and go for weight of wounds, but I can see the potential for moving units around if the scatter is favourable. I do wonder what his strategy is for dealing with land raiders and monoliths.

Out of interest, what exactly is TSHIFT?
