This isn't super viable, but I was playing around with a mostly JI Necron army, and it accidentally fits 2500 exactly.
I think this could possibly work, my main issue is the fact that Praetorians may as well be made of paper, and for their point cost, I'm not sure they'd perform well at all.
Got plenty of everything here, Wraiths and DLords take out vehicles like they're nothing, Immortals in cover can hold an objective or two easily enough, and all the rending/power weapons attacks will eat all but the spammiest of infantry squads. Wraiths can take all the punishment on their way across the table, possibly saving the TP some pain. This much JI should allow me to contest ALL the objectives if need be.
Possible combination of Wraiths/Praetorians to reduce the enemy to initiative 1 to avoid Praetorians dying immediately on the charge.

HQ:
2x Destroyer Lord (SW, MSS): 160(320)pts

Troops:
2x(5x) Immortals: 85(170)pts

Elites:
3x(10x) Triarch Praetorians: 400(1200)pts

Fast Attack:
3x(6x) Wraiths (WC): 270(810)pts

Thoughts/comments/insults/rage encouraged.

Wow. Certainly a new approach!!

I know the theme is jump infantry but seeing a squad of TP that large without an orb just seems wrong.

Of course, if you add an orb, you need to add a veiltek to move them around.... which means you need to lose the 2xDestroyer lords for Overlords that can take a court (who would then beef the praetorians but then you have a traditional deathstar.....which is better off with S&B lychguard for the same points). Hmmm.

Keen to hear how it goes!

Sooo many pts in praetorians.

Are they going to be DS'ing? I imagine in this size of a game the person your playing is going to have a lot of firepower.

Dark Eldar- 1500pts Completed
Grey Knights- 1500pts 1 Guy done
Chaos Daemons- Approx 5000pts
Slaanesh Daemons- 1500pts, in progress
Khorne Daemons- 1500pts, in progress
Death Korps of Krieg- Plans being formulated.
---------------------------------------------------
High Elves- Approx 2000pts
Vampire Counts- Raising the dead once more
