"Archon Yulliptidon sat apon a throne made of polished glass, which gleamed with magnificence in the rays of the dying suns, beautifully suspended above the the many razor sharp peaks that where Commorragh. The archon held within his hands a a delicate pyramid of sculpted crystal, from which emitted a faint glow, an echo of the soundless screams of pain belonging to countless tortured souls forever trapped within. The room in which the archon sat in was something like a throne room, but displayed apon the walls where helm of every color, but all the same in size and shape. Some bore eagles on their foreheads, and others still contained the decapitated heads of their previous owners. Two huge, beautifully carved iron double doors, engraved with intricate runes of pain and suffering, opened at the far end of the room, to reveal a tall, elegant dark eldar warrior, clad in armor made from bone and flesh. "lord Yulliptidon, you asked for my presence?" Said the arrival, " to what do I owe the pleasure?". The archon raised his elongated head, skin as pale as a full moon, eyes as vivid as a horrible nightmare. " I did not ask for you, Thrayon, I ordered your presence. Do not think to much for your self, for truly, you are not much past a feral that one would find on the streets. As for why I have ordered you to my palace, it is because their is a task that I wish you to preform. I wish you and you kabal to cleanse the imperial out fort of Sargosain Gastienagan." Thrayon was both aghast and interested at what the archon had just said. "Such a task would stretch my kabal to its limits, only a great reward would be enough to do a deed like this." Yulliptidon was outraged by the the proposal of a "great reward" by Thrayon, but did not let his anger show, hiding it with a cold smile that hid his evil intentions surprisingly well. The archon was was famous for never telling a lie in his life, but was very fond of veiled double speak, and this was no exception. "Do not worry, Thrayon, you shall receive what you deserve." Thrayon, happy with this outcome, left to carry out Yulliptidons task. Little did he know what was coming. Thrayon had done a thousand evil deeds, and what he deserved was a horrible death equal to to all those he had caused. Yulliptidons smiled. He was going to have fun."

Hellion Hitting and Running

Get a jetfighter and proxy that as a voidbomber(since we don't have a model for that), then battle report on how the flyer rules helped it. Or just use it as a jetfighter, then do the same. 
It's pretty hard to say anything without an army list and what you're planning: are you staying wych cult(you brave, brave soul)? Or are you gonna slowly shift toward a more hybrid list/darklight spam?

probably consider screening the wyches, possibly using harlequins to draw fire.

Don't know what else you have, so can't tell you what to buy.
I'd consider reserving the two units of wyches and putting aether sails on the Raiders. I'd also think about an Archon with a Shadow Field as the HQ, attached to one of the Wyches (possibly with a Haemonculi as well). When you disembark, screen the wyches with your HQs to soak up fire.

I have 40 wyches (400 points), 1 squad of Hekatrix bloodbrides (120 points) 2 raiders (went and brought one more. 120 points) 3 squads of kabalites (270 points)
Thats 890 points. I'm going to shuttle my wyches just out of range of the tau guns, the load a raider with 3 darklance kabalites, 3 blaster kabalites, and 1 splinter canon kabalite and 3 splinter rifle kabalites. This raider will hopefully take out the crisis battle suits. then I plan to move my wyches in and kill whats left
