Mandrakes start on the board out of line of sight. If needed, Kabalites can start on the board for some extra insurance. Autrach rolls on Strategic. Thanks to the Autarch, everything arives on a 2+. Fire Dragons WWP near high value targets. Windriders Grab objectives as needed. Went with Darkscythes on the Voidraven because the blast will more reliably hit tank/flyer sized targets. Shatterfield Missles can multi-role on infantry and, light-medium vehicles.

Thoughts?

EDIT #1: Removed Voidraven, added second Crimson hunter, added second unit of Mandrakes, added Haywire Grenades on a Archon.

If the Scourges are deepstriking would mixing in some Heat Lances be a good idea?

I would drop the Missiles from the Voidraven and get another unit of Mandrakes. Swapping it back to Void lances for some AA support to the Hunter, dropping a splinter cannon to get it Night Shields. You have very little ground presence to survive turn 1 even with Kabalites on the field.

Looks good, you have everything covered from Anti Horde with the Missiles to Anti Tank with the Haywire and Fragons. All i could suggest is dropping the Shatterfield missiles, because you just cannot justify 200pts in a 3HP Av 10 flyer. Beta strike is all well and good, but with interceptor as a possibility it's just to many points. With the 40pts you'd save you might as well throw Haywire Grenades on your Archon (8'' range is more then enough when in a unit of 12'' Meltas) and heck, even a Reaper Launcher on your Autarch (assuming he will join the Mandrakes, stealth + shrouded passes on).

Yeah I was kind of questionable about the missles too. More Mandrakes are probably the better option. I actually like the Darkscythes. Due to being Blasts, they actually hit other fliers more often than the 66% chance of the Voidlances.

Again I agree with the missles, too damn expensive. Reaper Laucher on the Autarch would be boss. Upgrades for the Archons could help as well.

Blasts cannot hit Fliers at all, so i would agree with the Void Lances. Heldrakes, Nightscythes and other Fliers would be a pain in your backside, because the Crimson Hunter can only take out 1 a turn, a little extra would be a nice option.

Wait why cant Blasts hit fliers? Even if they are on a platform with Skyfire?

EDIT: Nevermind, I see it now. Well gak. for 160 points it seems that a another Crimson hunter would be the better bet?

CH brings better AA, Voidraven also brings that big bomb which is actually VERY good now.

The only other thing I could think of was maybe squeezing in a comms relay for 2+ rerollable reserves. not sure what I could afford to drop though.

I can't see anywhere you could find 70 points that wouldn't hurt the list. 2+ rerollable (and 4+ rerollable to keep CHs off) is nice but not necessary.

What do the wracks give this list besides a unit to stay on the board turn one?
Looks good and I like it.
