Just a quick list i was kinda tossing around in my head. Mostly geared against MEQ, trying to keep it under 2000 pts, and I don't have a codex on hand. Here is what I came up with
Please give me some comments on what you think, I know I don't have much redundency in my list, but it has to a degree to do with what models I have/ plan to get.
I would also mention I have yet to find time to play 6th edition yet, so any insights are helpful.

Bump to resurrect from the dead

Hmm, I dunno, man.
If you're trying to go anti-MEQ, wouldn't Destroyers be a better option that a Stalker?
And if you find yourself facing Terminators, those Lychguard aren't going to be able to do much with power swords...
And the Monolith, well, I just don't get it anymore *shrug*

Well, let my present my rationale, and see if it makes more sense then, but i do certainly appriciate the feedback.

In case of terminators, I can maximize my fire against them with the stalker due to the twin-linking. I can also use it to twin-link the particle whip on the monolith, which, of course is now fantastic anti-armor given the 6th re-work of ordinance weapons.

As far as the lychguard go, I never really intended to send them against TEQ, despite the absolute nastiness of warscythes now. I was aiming to zoom them onto the board, into my opponents backfield, and butcher shooty units.(long fangs, looking at you here).

Depending on the opponent, I could also deep strike the monolith more safely, and bring the wraiths and d-lord in through the portal, to avoid more fire... but, i've never really gambled on that yet.

Modified my list based on Skoff's suggestion by dropping the shields from the lychguard. That frees up 35 points for wargear for the destroyer lord
Plan is, deep strike monolith, Wraiths and D-lord walk out and get right into assault, Lychguard rocket up the field as quickly as possible, or intercept TEQ.
Meanwhile the a-barges and stalker move up the field providing fire for the immortals to secure objectives.
