The strategy here is fairly simple: bum rush 'em! The ravagers may or may not rush forward, depending on my opponent, but everything else will go flat out at the enemy. With 7 drops I have a decent chance of going first.The ravagers will aim to take out an armored threat turn one and try to grab first blood. Thanks to Aeldari speed, I am likely to get off charges on turn 2. Raiders are more likely to get shot down, but also have less valuable cargo. The Serpents are the more juicy targets, but I have taken every trick in the book to beef up their toughness. Lelith will ride with the unit of 9 wyches. Yvraine, Jain Zar, and the Warlock will all ride with the unit of 8 banshees. Yvraine will use her powers to get extra attacks out of the main banshee unit, and buff their accuracy.

The last things I am trying to work out is whether or not to make Lelith's detachment Ynnari or leave it as Aeldari and which power to give the warlock. For Lelith and company it comes down to whether or not I think power from pain or strength from death is more useful overall. As a whole it might make more since for the entire army to be Ynnari. For the lock, I can't decide if I want him to make the banshees more accurate, or help them stave off return fire.

Id probably lean towards enhance/drain on the warlock.
-2 to hit on banshees in combat helps a lot.

I like this list, looks fun and fluffy, without giving up any real killyness.
