Seem to be putting up at least one list a day at the mo, but I'm nervous about bringing something I can manage and hit hard with for my first tournament. List has to go in tomorrow.

D Lord (semp weave, MSS)

10 Immortals (night scythe)
15 Warriors (night scythe)
5 warriors (night scythe)

6 wraiths (4 w coils - D Lord w these)

2 Annihilation barges

Doom scythe

I am not building and painting 6 wraiths along with the 3 fliers and repaint on the doom scythe which I am already doing. So no Wraith wing suggestions. Think the fliers are going to get me enough hatred anyway (surely everyone is doing this now anyway?)

Well, I'd evenly distribute the Warriors, i.e., 2x 10 instead of 15+5.
Moreover, I'd drop the whip coils since the melee weapons that hurt Wraiths most are initiative 1 anyway.
I'd eventually replace the Doom Scythe with an AB and add more Wraiths, say 2x5 would be nice.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess my thinking with the troop distribution is that the squad of 15 is enough to potentially destroy a unit if dropped 12" away. A squad of ten is more marginal. But the squad of five can hold an uncontested objective late in the game. So I sort if feel like there are two units with two purposes. 10 warriors (in my v limited experience) can be a bit if a "bringing a knife to a gun fight".

And, as I said, I'm not building a wraith wing for this tournament. I don't have the time. Especially with all my revision. I do love my wraiths, so maybe in the future, or as an aspect of a larger list (1850 with wraith wing at its core could be gnarly).
