What do you all think is it a list of champions or would you be able to improve it

You have a lot of unnecessary upgrades on your overlord and lord. Personally I wouldn't even take a lord and just grab a couple crypteks with Harbinger of the storm.

The lord only needs sepitermal weave,warscythe and mind shackle scarabs.
Scarab bases sound good, but are too easily destroyed.

I would look at adding another night scythe and 2nd annihilation barge to the list.

The wraith particle caster is also a was. That unit needs to be about 4 strong to be effective. The deathmarks are really only useful when joined by a cryptek with veil of darkness. I only find deathmarks useful as a full 20 man squad.

Lychguard need a transport.

Lychguard are in the nightscythe maybe I should have said I only own 5 deathmarks 1 annihilation barge and 3 wraiths would more scarabs work

Can you have a mixed Royal Court (Lord and Cryptek)? I always interpreted it as you can have up to 5 Crypteks or up to 5 Lords, not a mixed batch of 0-5 Crypteks and Lords

the overlord will only need warscythe weave maybe orb and scarabs, get rid make the scarabs at least 6 bases give the lord a scythe orb and weave and bump the warrior units up to atleast 15 if you can maybe drop the lychguard as they ar not too bad but arnt great maybe drop the lord and take some more storm teks

Ok and disdamn you can have up to 9 lords and crypteks just as long asyou dont go over 9 between them. By the way I have been told that lords and crypteks can capture objectives because they are upgrades for the squad they go in i.e. Warrior squad a lord is anupgraded warior is this true

You can have 10 models in the royal court; the limit is 5 for each type. They are not upgraded members of the unit either so are not scoring.

If you attach, say a cryptek to a warrior squad, and all the warriors get shot, but the cryptek comes back (everliving), then the cryptek will be scoring.
