So I'm going to a tournament that allows unbound lists and Lords Of War up to 800pts and I was thinking this would be an unusual sort of list.

Destroyer Lord (Warscythe, Semp Weave, Mind Shackle Scarabs)
Overlord (Catacomb Command Barge, Warscythe, Phase Shifter, Semp Weave)
Overlord (Catacomb Command Barge, Warscythe, Phase Shifter, Semp Weave)

6 x Wraiths (4with coils)
Tomb Blade
Tomb Blade

Transcendent C'Tan (Transliminal Slide, Seismic Assault, Cosmic Fire)

I've never written an unbound list before and the tournament isn't for a while yet. What do people think? Really appreciate some constructive criticism if you've got it.

Tasty stuff

My only real concern is the amount of models you have on the field. Granted the C'Tan is very durable and whatever can hurt it dies. If your opponent is smart, he'll play to the mission and grab as many Tactical Objectives as possible.

Of course, suggesting some Nightscythe Warriors is going to hurt the power of the C'tan, so it's entirely your call

I like the double Tomb Blades for Maelstrom. Heck, you make me want to do an unbound list of 50 Tomb Blades for a 1000 unbound Maelstrom list, doubt the opponent could destroy that many models in a turn xD

I wouldn't suggest just a few models on the battlefield. I haven't got my codex on me at the moment, but for unbound I would say get maybe 40 tesla immortals and use the remaining points to spam barges

1500 pts
2000pts

Why bring overlords if your not going to bring a royal court? I would bring more destroyer lords. They can keep up with the tomb blades and wraiths, they are T6 and grant the unit preferred enemy.

Sorry, I didn't see the command barge equipped.

Swap the overlords for destroyer lords and loose one wraith. Now you can make two units of four tomb blades with shield vanes for the same points. Better chance to hit and wound and decent staying power for holding objectives.
