I think Haywires or Blasters are the best options for Scourges, followed by the Heat Lance. Dark Lances are pointless because it means making mobile jump troops stand around in order to fire.
Regarding deployment: If you use a WWP and Deepstrike the Scourges, you have the choice of actually deepstriking them or just coming out the portal when the time comes. You can weigh the flexibility of deployment with deepstriking behind some big vehicle against the safety of flying out of the portal.
If you do take Haywire blasters, remember that the Haywire effect is rolled in addition to the regular S4 shot it gets. If you get a shot at any Av10, you get a glance on a 6 in addition to the additional haywire roll. It's not a big chance, but it can happen!
