Basic idea of the army, non jetbike farseer rides in the falcon with the banshees, falcon and dire avengers serpents go destroy a flank, while fire dragon serpent turbos up to get to a land raider/anything i want to die definitely. Jetseer council for obvious reason (theyre super crazy!) Also fully mech, so i have an edge over orks most times, pretty heavy in the local meta, i have a 2k mech ork army and i dot think id like to play against this list, assault is too unreliable for destroying vehicles =/

C&C please.

I've never seen anyone take mind war, its not a great power considering I.C's you more than likely will target have a high initiative.

5 fire dragons is enough really, their serpent is better with twin-linked shuriken cannons or scatter lasers. You can wreck a transport with the dragons and then kill the survivors with the guns from your own transport.

5 Banshees will get mauled in no time. You need a bigger unit really. Though I found striking scorpions to be better.

Brightlances are better for anti tank.

Give the falcon a scatter laser and a shuriken cannon, you now have a gun boat of S6 death.

doom mind/war is ok if your in a ork heavy meta, pretty much anything else it's not that great. You also will need to be out of the vehicle to use it so it's use becomes limited. Take the SS and mind war off and save yourself 45 pts. Also Witnessing isn't great either, on the jetlock it's not necessary due to embolden and for the regular seer you fail on a 11 or 12, not really worth the points.

Star cannons are horribly overcosted, get those things off of there lol. Scatters if AV10-11, EML if 12-13, Bright lance if 13+

5 banshees will get raped in CC, there just isn't enough attacks to kill off the target 100%.

A falcon is not a great choice for heavy, let alone with a star cannon. Take another serpent with the banshees and flesh the squad out to 10.

If your taking the Falcon for model availability sake then put an EML on her, put 5 DA inside and attach the farseer with guide. 3 shots s8 Twin Linked (guide)

Those are all pretty valid points, if the units were to be acting on their own, i was more thinking ot use everything in conjuction, dragons pop land raider/whatever avenegers bvladestorm the crap out of a unit or 2 then banshees go mop up meq thats left.

If sent in unsupported yea theyll get shafted, but the banshees wouldnt be sent into something that will kill them.

As for mindwar, theres 2 regular ork players id run into, killing nobs and painboyz = amazing, i know how much itd infuriate me as i have 3kish pts of orks myself .... especially if youre footslogging, then that 31 wound power klaw troop choice just became a wet noodle ... lol

I think i could probably throw in another warlock jetbiker if i dropped all the starcannons down to shuriken cannons, mabye scatter lasers, but i love ap2 :( i know its not the best with the mass of cover saves, but things like lonewolves have the balls to just walk across the field with their 2+/3++/4+ .

I would loose the second farseer for more banshees or a second falcon for the banshees or dragon

Eh only problem I see with that philosophy is banking on all 3 units getting up there. Not sure on your meta but I don't know many lists that I would risk 3 units getting out of their serpents to kill a single landraider and contents.

If you have you heart set on AP2 then spend the extra 5 poitns and go to starcannons. For a simple 5 points you gain +2S and lance... truly showing how overcosted Starcannon.

Looks quite good.
I'd give the 2nd Farseer doom and nothing else.
Moreover, I'd replace the Banshees by Harlies with kisses.
