Embraces do more or equal damage to GEQ, MEQ and TEQ for less points. Kisses are better against anything with multiple wounds. I'd suggest more diversity in weapons.

I would suggest a Shadowseer as well, after mixing matching some weapons you should have some points. I have also continued to read that the Death Jester does not get a return on his points usually.

After playing a couple of games with Harlequins:

Death Jesters are easy pickings once you start going after mission goals and targets. Other than true line of site blocking he gains no ruins save throw bonus. His 4+ just is not enough to stay alive very long. His one shot, unless you roll a 6, they have a save and unless you have other units focusing on them, will rarely force a moral check on it's own.

Solitaire seems to be a little bit weaker despite the less randomness in his Blitz. Hist attacks no longer erase models like his old gear. But he is a good distraction and can still do some big damage.

Once Troops are out of their transport they tend to die really quickly.

Embraces are as Temujin says.

I have to try out mine soon, but I'm having a hard time seeing where the jester fits in too. I want all my harlies mounted, so that extra space on a starweaver is prime real estate that I'd prefer to leave for a Troupe master or Shadowseer. Hard to leave the Jester out though just because of the rule of cool. I do feel that I will use the jester(s) more when I play Ynnari as they can footslog with my wraithguard or guardians.

I would definitely find a way to swap one troupe master out for a a shadowseer. Dropping the Jester would grants that. i also agree on the mix in weapons. I'm not sold on kisses due to cost, but I'll see if I change my mind after a few games. Embraces are solid for points, but a few caresses don't hurt either.

I have had good success with 2 units of 3 skyweavers, all cannon. Great for getting in there right away and draw fire from your regular harlies.
