Watcha think? Im goin towards a sm killer list. There are way to many power armor armies in my local gw...especially with the new Dark Angels release...even thouhg im a DA player...oh wellz lol.

All your aspect warrior saves are 4+, so any army with a lot of heavy bolters or assault cannons is going to wipe you out. Banshees especially are never going to see close combat: one volley from a landspeeder tornado will at least cripple, probably wipe out the whole unit. Scatterlaser and wraithsword are not marine-killer weapons: starcannons and missile launchers are marine-killers.

If you want a marine-killer list at 1000 pts (especially if you are playing on 4X4 tables) look at these units instead:
-6 Harlequins riding in a falcon, or 8-10 harlequins with fortune cast on them every turn
-shining spears
-warp spiders (very strong in small games)
-The Avatar

Finally, how committed are you to a seer council? It's expensive (especially giving the farseer more than 2 powers) but much weaker than before because the farseer can be picked out in HtH and killed, which removes fortune from the unit. This army would be stronger with just a solo farseer.

My suggestion if you want to be a MEQ killer is dark reapers.  Nothing kills whole squads of space marines per turn better.

Also if you want to be true to the theme of Ulthwe I would switch your 2 Dire Avenger Squads for guardian defenders and conceal or embolden warlock.

i dunno..i prefer dire avengers over guardians any day...especially with the bladestorm power.
starcannons can't do much when they can only shoot twice. scatter lasers are more...shooty...i love rolling bunches of die btw.
but the avatar idea is a good one, im thinking of switiching out the warlocks for the avatar...
the dark reapers are waay to expensive in my opinion, and they get shot at too easily...making them a prime target for sm players. the dire avengers "last longer" and with the bladestorm power i can get off 27 shots before charging.
i prefer the banshees over the dark repears because with guide and doom, they become extremley effective sm killers. but idefeinetly will consider them when moving up to larger point battles.as of now i have nothing that can shoot 48''...
meh kinda tacticy but w/e
besides, with fllet of foot and plenty of terrain my banshees can get anywhere...almost.

hows this for 1,500?
