8th Ed. Skrox deathstar

[Void Sorcerer]

Hey everyone, I have been debating the idea of using a Skrox deathstar with 6 kroxigors. However, when trying to plan this unit, the shape has left me with some questions. I want to make it a horde so that three full ranks can attack. So I am planning 10 skinks in the front rank. However, it appears to me that the only way to make it so all 6 kroxigors can attack in this formation is to line 5 up immediately behind.

Like this:

Is there another way that I could organize the unit to place the kroxigors more in the center? Or in doing so, do I lose attacks that the horde formation would otherwise provide?http://s27.postimg.org/c52fbsvj7/Skrox.png
Also, what are your thoughts on poison in a unit such as this? Just a waste, or could it be somewhat effective?

Horde formation will never give you extra rank-attacks in a skrox unit.

The first rank of kroxigor fill in both the 2nd and 3rd rank of the skink unit. So any skinks behind the kroxigor are in the 4th ranks, and ant kroxigor be kind the first rank if kroxigor are also in the 4th rank
