Adamantine lance
2 battle cannon knights 750
1 thermal cannon knight 370. 1120
Eldar CAD
1 warlock. 35
2 min windriders. 102. 1257
1 wraithknight, D cannons 295. 1552
1 unit of dark reapers, exarch with starshot. 98. 1650
1 firestorm Icarus lascannons 200. 1850
Dark reapers in firestorm to give BS 5, jink ignoring, interceptor AND an extra shot to both intercepts?
How does this do for a 'take all comers'?

You are aware that the DRs can't fire the Icarus Lascannons right? So my usual EldAIR list would be fine playing this. It comes on kills Firestorm kills Wraithknight. Then spends game Lolzing at the Imp Knights...

Redoubt has the automatic fire rule, so no double firing for you.
Another Eldar list could take it rather easily. As having wraithguard, wraithknights, and fire dragons can table an AdLance easily, and More D>Less D is what more or less dooms the wraithknight.
I also think Crons can take it. A well made DCult can kill the wraithknight turn one, then spread out to get multiple facings on the knight. The fact that everything can hurt them means with good deployment and all the rerolls the Dcult gives he will get multiple facing and kill a Knight or two a turn.
Daemons also have an excellent chance, if they misfortune the wraithknight and charge it with a dog squad everything else is rather easy from there in terms of just tying up the knights with summoned units and controlling objectives.
A pentyrant list will also give you plenty of trouble, albeit the wraithknight will be invincible it can probably be worked around. First turn will concentrate on killing the redoubt with grubs (Also killing the person inside) and from there nothing you have can hurt him and he will kill your Lance and all units except the wraithknight by turn 3, maybe 4.

Thank you for the heads up on auto fire. A guy at my Local Friendly is playing it wrong with tau.
As for eldar, knights could be a problem, but I am not seeing many guard getting across the field.
Crons were my biggest worry.

Any ideas on how to get decent anti air in that 298 point block? Switch the reapers and fort for something?

Simple I elect not to play you as does pretty much everyone else you know. And now your forced to abandon being a douche driving his canoe over the posted speed limit and play an actual army instead of trying to be a dick.
In addition once the new Knights codex drops the adamant lance is defunct and you can't take it.

No one is ever up for a chalange honestly. Its not an impossible fight but nothing is wasy (wheres the fun in an easy win) also: "play an actual army" technicaly that is an army.....
