Would love to get some input on this list...may be too much mech for the current environment, but I'm trying to leverage mobility and long range firepower. Not a WAAC list, but I want some army synergy.

HQ:

Eldrad - 210 (goes with dire avengers in WS)

Jetbike farseer w/ fortune + spear + runes of witnessing - 128 (with shining spears)


Troops:

10 Dire Avengers w/ exarch, bladestorm, and dual catapults – 152

in a

Wave Serpent w/ twin linked scatterlaser + chin cannon – 125

5 pathfinders - 120 (sit behind Aegis defense line for 2+ save and BS 4 on quad gun)

6 guardian jetbikes w/ 2 cannons – 152

3 guardian jetbikes w/ 1 cannon - 76 (start in reserve in most situations)


Heavy Support:

Falcon w/ star cannon – 140

Fire Prism – 115

Fire Prism - 115


Elites:

5 Fire Dragons – 80 (go in the falcon)


Fast Attack:

5 shining spears w/ exarch, star lance, skilled rider, withdraw - 237


Fortification:

Aegis Defense lines w/ quad gun - 100

First off, I am a firm believer in the power of mechdar. However, I think that the squad of three jetbikes is rather silly, it is likely to be destroyed almost instantly.

Yeah, the min jetbike squad is strictly to claim or contest objectives on the final turn of the game. Initially the list had 1 less prism and both jetbike squads were 6 man, one with an embolden lock. I would consider going back to something like that.

That would probably be wise, after all, you have a jetbike farseer, you should put emphasis on jetbikes. Although fire prisims are doubtless useful, I don't think that you need two in this list.
