The Haemonculai normally deploy with the Venom trueborn. The goal is to pop them forward, deploy the Haemonculai and drop WWPs at the first opportunity (usually center offset a little away from the flank you are planning on running your fast moving raiders/ravagers) leaving the Pain Token with the Trueborn.
Everything else involves blowing forward and blasting cans, in anticipation for the beast-flow to come.
The wracks are sort of an afterthought unit, leftovers from a prior list process...and with them coming out of a webway near an objective as a 5th troop w/FNP...they are not horrible per-se...still in a thought process for their points, probably beefing warrior or beast squads.
Still wish to play a bit to see my gaps before committing their 50pts.

Unfortunately, after rebuilding this list, I realize I cheated my buddy Edge by about 50pts in a game yesterday. I DON'T think it mattered much (2 extra wracks and 2 extra khymera...it's what I get for shifting a list in my head between games) but the flow was right, and it functioned how I expected.
