Troubled By Non-Compliant Worlds

Alright Dakkanauts I've got a tourney this Saturday at my FLGS and I am making up a list to play. Now this list wont be super competitive seeing as I am only using the models I have, so without further adieu here it is!
Autarch - Jetbike, Mantle of the Laughing God, Fusion gun, Firesaber
Farseer - base
Warlocks x2 - Base
Wraithguard - D-Scythes, Wave Serpent
Dire Avengers x5 - Wave Serpent
Dire Avengers x5 - Wave Serpent
Dark Reapers x4 - Exarch, Missile Launcher, Flakk, Fast Shot
Dark Reapers x4 - Exarch, Missile Launcher, Flakk, Fast Shot
Aegis Defence Line, Quad Gun.
All Wave Serpents have Holo fields, and TL Scatter Lasers.
I may have missed a couple of things, I don't have the list or my book on hand but my list came to 1500 even. Tell me what you think!

That list seams pretty solid to me, I run a list very similar.
I would say one squad of far reapers have to go, and get rid of flack missiles. Their mannin gthe quad gun anyways, they don't need it.
With extra points maybe invest in some war walkers. With all bright lances.yor lacking in av 14 pening, and those would do the trick. Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh yes and warlocks+farseer have really nothing do to. Especially the war locks. If your gonna try and run them as a wimpy sear council.... Don't. They will just die.

Sadly I don't own any warwalkers, when I get the money I am going to get a box or two of Warp Spiders and a Crimson hunter.

Executing Exarch

Second dropping the warlocks, and probably the farseer. The seer can be kept though to chill with the reapers behind the line and do cool stuff.
Why not grab the shard over the firesaber if you want a big beefy laughingtaurch? The soul blaze gimmick is just that.
Night vision is a steal on a reaper squad, and well worth the points.
Not a fan of the EML on the exarch or flak missiles, they are rather meh for aa purposes and the EML takes out the option of the starswarm missiles. The small blast is alright, but the S5 shots are usually better. I would just give him the S8 missiles, and consider them for the whole squad. Guided, this is quite effective AA.
I am a personal fan of chin cannons on the serpents, well worth the points.
What other models do you have?

Yeah Shuricannons are a great investment on the Wave Serpents. Drop a Warlock and you've got enough points for them all. The Farseer could still work in this list, attached to the Reapers, as Guide and Fortune will be very useful. If not, you could drop him and perhaps look into some Windriders, or some Anti-Tau, since they'll give your Autarch and the WSs a hard time.

I agree with fropping the locks and 1 squad of reapers.. your going to get a lot of dakka from the WS's
I wouldn't purchase a crimson hunter... in fact i'd be willing to sell you mine.

Although the Farseer and his psychic shenanigans can be nice, why not make your Wraithguard scoring with a Spiritseer? You can use the Farseer model as a Spiritseer imo. Agree on the Shard and Serpent chin cannon upgrades.
Drop the Exarch off both Reaper squads (manning the Quad after all), and drop a Reaper squad for something else such as Warp Spiders, War Walkers, etc. whatever you have the models for.
Exchange Avengers for Guardians with a platform if you can by dropping the Warlocks (which you should do anyway as they aren't doing anything in the OP list)
Good luck in the tourney!

I've got at least a full squad of every aspect besides warp spiders and shining spears, I've got 20 guardians, 7 Harlequins with a shadowseer, and more farseers/warlocks/eldrad, and the Avatar. The lists I am worried about the most come from a Necron player and a Chaos Marine player who may or may not read this thread if he sees it lol.
Edit: I forgot to mention I have around 15 OOP Rangers as well. Automatically Appended Next Post: any other advice?
