I playtested another one of my lists that was pretty Jetbike-heavy, and was impressed by the performance of the army, but I didn't get enough chances to experiment with playing with it. I tried my hand at a Mech list, with no Jetbikes, and have come up with this:

Pretty straightforward. Tanks are my anti-tank, Prisms blast anything out of the water, and the squads pop out and fry anything they are in range of. I could exchange one of the Fire Dragon squads for another Storm Guardian squad, but then I need 30 points somewhere.

Two scoring units is not much. I opt for another Guardian squad, without a Warlock it should be fine. In competitive play, the Farseer should have runes of warding.

Do you really need 3 squads of Fire Dragons + 3 BL serpents?

That's some kind of paranoia (having enough anti-tank). How about horde Orks?

you seem to lack cc bad

I think that is where your extra points could come from; drop a unit of Dragons for another scoring unit. Two units can become very difficult to win with, especially if your opponent has taken 5-6 scoring units.

Locally, Runes of Warding is nearly mandatory. Tourneys, it's likely to be an important piece of kit like wuestenfux advised.
