Hey, welcome back to DE. I'm confused about why you went with RSR for your army. You're not taking advantage of the 6 FA slots and still losing objective secured. I'd switch to CAD.

I personally don't think that Archon/incubi units don't make their points back a lot times. It's expensive and only T3. I guess test it out though. I prefer grotesques as a CC unit.

What do your warrior squads have? You wrote DL-NS for them as well. In regard to your question about venoms or raiders, that is something you may have to find out on your own. I like a mix but everyone seems to have different opinions.

I think that you're putting a lot of points into your elites which have to get close to do their job. May want to drop some of that get more troops. Everything else looks ok.

You're list is good enough, and will do well in a Friendly Scene. You have enough Anti-Vehicle, enough Anti-Infantry and more then enough speed. It's actually a very similar to my Pure DE list.

A few things i would suggest to improve the list
* A Succubus with Archite Glaive and Armour of Misery is better then an Archon in everyway once you reach combat. If you insist on an Archon, Djin Blade is abysmal, take a Husk Blade instead. It's expensive, but quite scary.
*Demi-Klaive is actively worse then a normal Klaive. It grants you an extra attack at Str 3. Nah, keep the normal Klaive, it's cheaper and better.
*Shatterfields are too expensive for what they bring, keep the basic Monoscythes.
*With the extra points get yourself Splinter Racks and Splinter Cannons, you will be amazed at the firepower.
