Blood Stalkers are not as popular as their snake sisters, mostly due to the fact that they are neither great at range, nor as good in close combat; however they do fit the theme of a snake army and can give you some ranged threat that you otherwise might lack (though often as not daughters just charge up and get in the face of the enemy).

I''d be tempted to drop one Hydra or some stalkers to free up some points so that you can boost at least one or more of your Sisters up to a few more models. You want more models for more wounds so that you've got a bit more staying power. 

Yeah, agree the Stalkers are a bit underwhelming, they are pretty much just there as a "Temple Nest" tax.

SO, I'm normally a square baser, but my friend is dipping his toes into AoS, so I'm taking the plunge with him. DoK was really the first army that spoke to me through the various AoS releases, especially the "Snake Ladies," so I'm looking at building a Temple Nest list around that, just looking for a little C&C.

Temple: Khailebron

Bloodwrach Shrine (220)
-General
-Mistress of Illusion
-Thousand and One Dark Blessings

Hag Queen (60)

Still need to figure out my 2nd artifact / prayers for the Hags. The ~370 odd points at the end are a bit of a flex spot. I put in the War Hydras because they seemed like a couple of good, beefy monsters that fit the snake theme, but I'm not married to the idea, and could see myself taking  a coupe of 10 packs of Heartrenders / Lifetakers, or maybe even a couple of Avatars of Khaine. I considered squeezing in Morathi, who is totally Snake Lady, personified, but would have to give up a bunch of bodies (5 Blood Sisters + a Hag)… lots of choices to mull over!
