First off, when using the Decurion Detachment you do not list things off as their role as if you are listing a Combined Arms Detachment (CAD), i.e. Troop/hq/Fast etc. You list them as the Detachment/formations require.
Like this:
Reclamation Legion
Overlord - Res Orb, Phase shifter
5 Immortals + Ghost Ark
10 Warriors + Ghost Ark
10 Warriors + Ghost Ark
3 Tomb Blades - Sheild veins, Particle beamer, Nebuloscope
Canoptek Harvest
6 Scarabs
5 Wraiths /w Whips
Spyder .w T-L Particle Beamer
3 Destroyers
3 Destroyers
So, now to the fix:
Immortals are not able to go into Ghost arks.
The destroyers as listed here force you to go Unbound and you lose the +1 Reanimation bonus and the better version of Living Metal on the Ghost arks.
You will want to re-read the section of the Big Rule Book that talks about Detachments and Formations and then re-read the Necron Codex section where it talks about making the Necron Decurion Detachment.

Sorry, you are using the required models to make the Decurion so went that direction with my reply. But, no, the Decurion is not too cheesy compared to what a lot of other armies are doing these days...

It looks like almost a standard list, bar the 3 Destroyers. 3 models are making you shift away from balanced/constructed play into the craziness that is Unbound. In bound game, it's illegal to add 3 Destroyers in your list as they cannot be part of any of the formations you own, nor a legal CAD.
Unbound is a completely different game with no restrictions. Everyone can bring what they want, from 10 Landraiders in 2k points list, to 20 Riptides. 5 stormsurges, only wriathknights and all kinds of weird stuff you can think off. In the context of Unbound, we cannot make comments on your list, as we don't know what you are going to face, since unbound is endless. For an unbound army, you've certainly stuck a lot to standard play and formations, when you could just play an army with just Wraiths. 45 Wraiths and 15~ or so whip coils for a 1850 points list. How fun/gamebreaking would that be? Anyway, as I said, I think it's impossible to make comments on Unbound lists, so if you want comments, you should probably go bound.
