Okay so that's my list, it's not meant to be competitive, but i'd still like to win some games.
So what do people have as comments. (Yes i know it doesn't have warp spiders, please try and get past that and not just say "Needs warp spiders".)
I don't have much, but i think what i do have is fairly strong.
Lev-Yaan will be with the Wraithblades, whilst Ahn-Xin will hide behind the wraithlord and wraithseer dishing out wraithforge lovelyness. (Depending on powers rolled, if protect/jinx is rolled than she will be with the wraithblades to buffer them.)
The Jetbikes will stroll on from reserve and try and get late game linebreakers.
The war walkers will probably outflank (They have the potential to be switched to double lances if facing a vehicle heavy list) and the scatterstar combo will enable them to target Meq, Teq and anything softer.
The Nightspinner can fly over to the enemy turn one and fire out a big net of barbed death and smush something that uses cover and has low armour (Pathfinder hunter) Hopefully it wont be destroyed that turn (Why i have the Holo-fields for a 3+ jink i believe?)
The Serpent Wraithguard will move up towards the enemy. Possibly being able to hit an enemy that has moved out (Scout moves, Infiltrators, ect) They can then float around the battlefield on foot hitting anything that needs it, whilst their serpent does the same, keeping close so that they can embark if need be.
The Wraithblades will move along, heading for assault with anything. They are a powerful assault unit, even more so depending on the runes of battle rolled. They will stick close to the wraithlord/wraithseer in order to make a super threat ball.
The Wraithlord will pump out lance shots at vehicles/heavy units whilst moving along. The Wraithseer will do the same, perhaps close combating with something that needs holding up eg- Riptide. It can also buffer itself or the wraithlord, maybe even the wraithblades, with feel-no-pain depending on the circumstance.
Hopefully on the whole there are so many big threats coming at them that the enemy will struggle to choose a target, and either spend all their time on one thing, or do minimal damage to everything. Of course that all depends on the dice roll. (I once rolled five ones when I needed twos to wound) But hopefully the high toughness will make sure enemies make few wounds.

So yeah, opinions and critique would be lovely.
I also would like to have an opinion on who would be the better warlord, Lev-Yaan or Wraithseer.
Also I can't think of a name of the Wraithseer, do people think it should be double barreled like my other HQ's or should it be a single barreled name to show it's uniqueness?
Thank you xxx

Umm, for this list for the wraithseer take a BL on him for longer range and pts. For a sad point wraith blades suck in 6th ed so swap them out for cannon guard (sad panda), other then that all good.

As for warlord, make it wraithseer.

Hmm- Why the Bright Lance?
I'm just wondering because on every Wraithseer Tactica the D-Cannon is recommended as the weapon of choice on a Wraithseer.
Also... Can I ask why you think Wraithblades suck? I think they're pretty good, I haven't tested them just yet but they have a similar threat range to wraithcannon guard in theory.
Plus I love the models :3

BL is cheaper, longer range, and lance.

When i get my wraithseer i wanted to to cannon but I found it didn't work well at all.

Also wraithblades are awesome models, but so slow with no WS, thats why they really suck.

Wraithseer should be the warlord for sure. Iyanden warlord traits are amazing, and T8 warlord with an invul save (and feel no pain if you need) is pretty hard to deal with. Even more insanity that you can heal em with the wraithforge stone!

By the sound of it, are you planning on having Ahn-Xin alone? That would be a very bad idea, as a T3 model who heals your warlord and throws out psychic goodies is asking to get shot. Put both your spiritseers in the wraithblade unit. Try to roll for protect/jinx or destructor/renewer. You only need 1 copy of voice of twilight, so try not to get it on both. Pretty much everything is good in telepathy, so try to get 1-2 rolls there as well. When the wraithseer casts FNP on this unit they are virtually untouchable, and the way the wording of the power is, FNP goes on the spiritseers too!

5 wraithblades is a bit small for the unit, they are not terrible but you need 10. Shave points where you can to get more. Jetbike cannons, maybe the spear of tehulas.

Probably don't want to outflank your walkers, they have decent range. If you want to, dual shuricannon is cheaper and does the job. Your pretty set for anti MEQ/teq.

The d-cannon is amazing, but the lance is OK to save points. I like the d-cannon much more, and with voice of twilight having battle focus means you can quickly and easily get into range.

Thank you
Okay, so I'll use the Wraithseer as my warlord. (Would the Undying Flame allow him to reroll feel no pain too?)
Okay, Ahn-Xin will hop in with the Wraithblades and they will rule everything.
At the moment i only have 5 models for the wraithblades, but I'll add another box to the list of what to buy.
Do you think the walkers are irrelevant in this list? Should I replace them with something else?

I would keep the walkers, but like serling said to save 20pts you can drop their weapons down to double cannons which since you can move 6", run max of 6" shoot 24" gives them a max range of 36" (like a BL) and lets you kill light AV units, to even sudo rending terminators.

Oh okay, I had thought that having shuriken cannons would have been a waste given the fact that they have a large choice of weapons.
Though I've just realised that I can't deal with fliers :(
Any suggestions?

Eldar deal with flyers with volume of S6 fire. Your walkers do this well, as will the Wave Serpent. Not enough for competitive games, mind you...but if you are worried about combating flyers in volume...that would destroy your list to add completely different units.
