More Legion

Ok so my wife is going to get me 2 units for my birthday. I know I want a hydra, but for the secound I can't decide what I want. It is between striders or swordsman. Since I am running lylth I would think striders would be better to shoot at something, then run shredders in for the kill, but swordsman get to backup the shredders. I am not sure. Any idea.s

Striders are better in almost every way and will be used in more armies overall. You'll want the unit attachment with either unit though.
