Reavers are better at shooting(AT), bladevaning(AI) or harassing, depends on how you geared them up. Just saying if you're planning to use them as assault unit, you may have to rethink.
Mandor got most everything covered, so I'll just add... 4 Trueborns, not 5, the extra body is a waste of points, won't make the unit more durable, but you've wasted points that you could spend elsewhere.
For scourges, there are 2 setups, surprisingly, 5 of them, or 10 of them. Former is great for deepstrike, MSU and harassment, it's a rather small unit(costly, but hey), they can still do their job well, since you can field 5 x 2 if you want 4 HWB(for example). Latter improves the durability only by a tiny bit(come on, T3 4+/6++, do you think they're really made to last?), the damage output on one unit is the same as 5 x 2, but you lack the flexibility to shoot at 2 different targets should the situation arise that you don't need all of those guns to finish off that unit, and now the unit is in a big enough size to draw attention from enemy. All in all, as you can tell already, I like 5 scourges MSU more than 10 scourges blob of wings, but it's all up to you if you want a slightly more durable 10 scourges unit or a more flexible 5 scourges MSU.
