I would drop a cenobite from the 8 man squad and spend those points on a plasma incinerator each for the interemptor squads. It would be really easy for your opponant to neuter them by move reacting away when they disembark

#

Incinerators with torrent will buy them the ability to do some damage anyway.

Right, nevermind

#

I'd still buy them though, they carry my squad's damage output
