10/10 for the idea, but your too low on troops. Plus you have to have a pair of Tomb Stalkers in there

This army is best done at higher point levels as Spyder and Wraiths are too expensive.

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high

The only worry is that you have 2 5 man squads of troops, and yes, there is a chance your fast attack or heavies get to be scoring, but most games are now objective based.

Maybe take fewer scarabs, boost your warrior count up some, maybe 3 squads of 8 or something of the like.

Bedouin Dynasty: 10000 pts
The Silver Lances: 4000 pts
The Custodes Winter Watch 4000 pts

Manet 5 more warriors but this is suppose to be an all canoptek army. Troops and Hq are going to be the only non canoptek things on the list. Warriors are not that good so I would use immortals

I would say drop the tach. arrow, phylactery, and tess. lab to get some more troops. After all, he's already going to be a pain to kill, why make him get back up with more? And you you really want to spend 50 points on one-shot items that have a dubious success chance at best? Lord is unnecessarily expensive. Also consider dropping anrakyr, as you really don't need 2 barge lords. Use these points to get more troops, preferably immortal squads if possible. If you want the bare minimum 2 troops, immortals are at least tougher to kill than warriors.

I am deciding not to use points on scarabs. I want as little troop points as possible. This will be against grey knights. Thyme have some styluff my troops cant hurt. Using scarabs wont help. The tomb stalkers are supposed to be buggy. Hopefully there will be no assassin to kill everything

Much better than OP's list (who gives a unit of Wraiths only ONE Whip coil?!), but not quite right yet...

Also, an illegal list, as Scarabs are FA, not HV.
