So there is a local tournament coming up and I'm trying to put together a competitive Iyanden Ghost theme list.
I know I will be against Orcs, Blood Angels, Space Wolves, Tau, and other Eldar. Looking for thought and advice on my list.

HQ
Spiritseer (Gaurdian Helm of Xellethon)

Troops

5 Wraithblade ( Axe & Shield
-Wave Serpent ( Scatter lasers, Holo-Fields)

5 Wraithgaurd ( Wraithcannon)
-Wave Serpent ( Scatter lasers, Holo-Fields)

5 Wraithgaurd ( D-Scythes)
-Wave Serpent

And that's it, Didn't have enough points to kit out the last serpent but i figured I'd use it to drop my scythe's where i want them and figure out what i want to do with it afterwards. I will run the seer with the blades, and with the helm he passes all of his look out sirs automatically. And the guard are for the S10 AP2 shots so why not. Any idea's or improvements that stay within the theme are greatly appreciated! Open to all advice and criticism.

By my math you can afford a 3rd serpent, even though you have to take it naked. I would make sure to mech up the cannonguard over the wraithblades. If you run a large number of blades with a seer, you can go on foot.

I would drop the guardian helm for Hf on the scythes serpent, also I would run the seer with the scythe guard instead of with the blades.

Good thinking, I don't really want my seer in CC huh. And the HF will help with the orcs.... See this is why i ask you guys lol.

Looks good.

Ok, i dont see where in the codex or the iyanden supplement where it says wave serpent transport can get a heavy flamer? Am i just blind or missing something?

I guess HF means Holo-fields?
