I've always wanted to run a wraith list, and with the new codex I'm thinking I'll give it a shot. If nothing else its not another serpent spam list. Definitely interested in hearing if it stands a shot or if transports really are a must buy.

This list still has 13 points left over to mess around with. Any advise would be really helpful.

i think that foot wraith is for sre duable, and your list looks really good, but serpents are always helpfull to get them where there needed. i would run one scatter laser, and one shuken cannon on each lord, just because that way, you will actually put out an equal number of shots ( thanks to laser lock) and 3 of them can rend. i would also recomend gettting an exarch with shimmer sheild for your dire avengers, as the 5++ is quite helpfull for them squishy infintry.

what is the role of the avatar? if you don't have a clear plan for him a farseer would better suit with a ADL in your list.

I suggest you cut the fat off the wraithlords, they have too much makeing them big targets. either go heavy shooty or light shooty with glaive. Also with having a ADL I'd drop one for Dark reapers

the scatter laser with the guardians is good however another weapon would make them better, perhaps BL or SC.

Go Icarus Lascannon with that ADL a fast shot Exarch or Avatar would rule the skies

I love wraith lords, i would switch the catapults to flamers as they are going to get charged. I run three in my list and they have done pretty well.

flamers every time. didnt see you had the catapults. get the flamers.

Ditto on the flamers! 2XD3 hits when charged is really nice!

Flamers not being on the lords was more of an oversight while writing the list here. That being said, I do like the suggestion of possibly exchanging the avatar for a farseer. He had been there to add in fearless for the DA advancing along side him and add in another large melee monster, but having the extra farseer powers would probably help just as much.

I'm not sure which route to go with though if I add in a farseer. I could swap in Eldrad directly, as he costs the exact same amount as the avatar with fast shot.

The other option would be to drop both the avatar and the DA, and then add in some jetbikes and a jetbike farseer. This would add in some definitely needed mobility.
