It's a pretty low model count list, and working with the models I got. I had this idea using spiritseers and farseer to all roll on telepathy hoping to get invisibility and casting on wraithknights and using the wraithforge stone to regen wounds. I dunno if it constitutes a wraitknight deathstar but thought it would be neat to make them more durable. If i were to roll and get invis early on possibly switch up some farseer powers to get guide or fortune. Just spitballing here, feedback would be great thanks!

Well.. you wouldn't want your Farseer to be warlord...
TBH It would never win competitive play..
Even a friendly match with another player would be a white-wash one way or the other...
either you kill him because he didn't take any weapons that can touch your knights.. or he tables you by turn 3...

Either way doesn't sound fun.
Iyanden has FEWER elder left.. not none at all
Definitely need to splash some more jetbikes.. if nothing else but to protect as VERY vulnerable seer.. (I win if I roll invisible.. get spanked turn one if I don't isn't a very fun tactic in a friendly)
Try also maybe some hawks or warp spider instead of a second guardcanon squad

If your going wraith themed, go wraith themed. Drop the serpents and take more wraith guard squads. With 4 units of 5 WG put a spiritseer in each so you can cast multiple powers no problem, and you can even drop the farseer, or buy him a bike and MotLg if you want to.

Lastly, only spiritseers can take wraith forge stone, it tells you in the remnants of glory.

Your going to need a way for your invisibility casters to stay alive, other wise those will be the first target and then the rest of the list would follow. Arbiters suggestion could work, or you could make the 2 5 man wraith guard into a 10 man with axes and shields, then put the hqs there

Mantle is no good to Iyanden, the warhead gets replaced for the supplement..
I'm with the idea of more foot units (wraith or eldar) though.. That seems more themed..
Wave serpents don't HAVE to be spammed after all.

Oh wow thanks for all the feedback, regarding the wraithstone it states that any "character" in your army that select remnants of glory may instead select from the gifts of asuryan. Farseers can select from the remnants of glory according to what i see in the codex. So I think I can purchase it for the farseer on the jetbike. While i think its a good idea to keep the spiritseers safe in a walking wraithguard squad I feel it would lack mobility a little bit without wave serpents. I feel in a competitive sense it wouldn't be efficient. Im playing around with some ideas and trying to see if this wraithknight deathstar idea could work. It would probably be difficult to make this a competitive build, but I think the idea is there just needs to keep refining. Anyway, Here's another list i concocted:

HQ
- 1 Farseer: Jetbike, Wraight forge stone…..……………………………………………………………………145
- 5 Spiritseer……………………………………………………………………………………………………350

Troops
- 5 Wraithguard: wraithcannons…………………………………………………………….................160
- 5 Wraithguard: wraithcannons…………………………………………………………………….....160
- 3 jetbikes..............51
- 3 jetbikes..............51
- 3 jetbikes..............51
- 3 jetbikes..............51

Heavy Support
- 1 Wraithknight: 2x Heavy Wraithcannons………………………………………………………………….240
- 1 Wraithknight: 2x Heavy Wraithcannons………………………………………………………………….240

Total Points: 1499

Naturally I would make one of the wraightknights the warlord (forgot to mention that earlier) and this grants me another spiritseer and some objective scoring jetbikes for endgame. Again I appreciate the feedback!
