I think that super-heavy tanks are more plausible then titans for captured
war engines. I imagine that titans have many failsafes to prevent them
from being hotwired.

You missed the 25 points that is standard for detachment commanders.

>Main Force: Up to 5 selections

Out of curiosity, why 5 selections? Are genestealer cults a dying race
like the eldar? Or was it more to limit them in the same way as IG
infantry (1 command squad/3 selections).

How do you intend to field a genestealer cult? As an army on its own, or
as a detachment in a tyranid force, or something else?
