2- spirit seer with primaris powers

2- 5 man wraithblades with the axe and shield

2- 5 man wraithguards with the cannons

2- 5 man Wraithguards with the D-scythes

2- Wraithlords with Flamers, missle launchers, scatter Lasers, and a glaive

1- Wraithknight with the ghost glaive and shield, and 2 shuriken cannons.

Im going to use the knight as bait by making him my warlord (plus he is big and attracts attention ) and use the seers to rush my wraith across the board with the Wraithlords pounding vehicles

i believe it all totals to 1830out of 1850 i want to keep it a wraithguard army but im not opposed to using vehicles thats why theyre only squads of 5 and its kinda funny that there is only 35 models in all of this.

Leave me some tips but i want to keep it kinda similar to all wraithguard.

I'd drop the wraith lords in favor of Serpents for the D-Scythe guard.

To make this max competitive, drop WL and WK for 4 serpents with SL/HF. The wraithblades can guard home objectives, I would also recommend making it 1 unit of 10 WB.

I love lords with fluffy lists, they can be ok with duel SL/BL but there are better options. Also for bigger games consider a wraithseer who is fluffy and a sweet model.

what are the rules for a wraith seer though? i cant ever find them and i was thinking of getting one some time or other.

and unfortunately i ran out of warhammer funds so all i have is the wraith knight, 4 lords, 30 wraith guard, 2 spirit seers, and 2 wave serpents.

OK, the rules for wraithseer are found in the Wh40k apoc book.

Basically hes a lvl1 psycher who can use 1 of any 3 powers per turn, the powers are "enemy must take a pinning test at -2 LD range 18", 1 unit of WG/WB/WL gets FnP, the last one I believe is a unit of WG/WB/WL gets fleet (not 100% don't have the book on me atm)".

In CC hes WL stats with a spear that lets him re roll armour pens, wounds, and master crafted, he also has a 5+ inv, and can take any eldar heavy weapons for tanks, with the addition of a d-cannon.

I'm all for it, WB are not my favorite though, but the serpents will pull their weight.

ok so right now im looking at

4 squads of Wraithguard (2 with cannons, 2 with Flamers)

2 Wraith Lords with scatter laser and plasma cannons unless yall think i should swap it for the brightlance

1 Wraithknight with the sword and shield and two shuriken cannons (warlord)

and two Spiritseers with Iyanden Primaris powers.so ill probably attach them to the two cannon guard squads and walk my wraith lords behind them for the cover saves.

and i think ill use my wraith knight to pester them. cant decide if i should give him the Eldar version of a Railgun or go with the sword and shield because it looks sexy.
