Hey guys I could use some help fixing up a list for a local tourney. It's been a while since I've been on dakka and posted a list but as always, any critiques and comments are welcomed!

Farseer …. 100**

2 Spiritseers …. 140

8 Wraithguard …. 256 (farseer and atleast 1 spiritseer here)

2 x 10 Dire Avengers …. 240
2 x Wave Serpent …. 290**
TL Scatterlaser, Shuriken Cannon & Holofield

4 GuardianJetbikes …. 68**

2 War Walkers …. 140
4 Scatterlasers

2 x 7 Warp Spiders …. 266**

1500pts
**********************************************************
Thanks for the help....

UPDATE: Asterisks mark spots where changes were made. I added shuricannons to the serpents, added another squad of 7 warp spiders, added a guardian jetbike, and dropped the wraithlord and singing spear on the farseer. I also wrote a second list while I'm staying up late studying and its a bit unconventional like the first one but I think it could work. Check it out with Dr. Steve Brule:

Farseer …. 120
Jetbike & Singing Spear

2 Warlocks …. 90
1 Jetbike & 2 Singing Spears

10 Storm Guardians … 110
2 Fusion guns

10 Dire Avengers …. 120

5 Dire Avengers … 60

3 x Wave Serpent …. 415
TL Scatterlaser & Holofield & 1 Shuriken Cannon(storm guardian serpent)

6 Guardian Jetbikes …. 122
2 Shuriken Cannons

2 x 6 Warp Spiders …. 228
5 Warp Spiders …. 95

2 War Walkers …. 140
Scatter/Starcannon

Total: 1500

Lots of troops and lots of spiders.. Volume fire is definitely in effect here; the storm guardians are faux-firedragons taking care of heavy AT and 2 singing spears in the jetbikes just it case. Let me know how to improve both of these lists, thanks~ helvost

Ok heres my 2cence.
drop wraithlord. Hes a little out of place in the list.
Add a jetbike and mantle onto farseer.
Add shuiken cannons to the serpents.
drop 2 warp spiders off the 7 man and then add anoth 5 man squad, making 2 5 man.
Good luck

Umm, change the title.

Just do what ninjafiredragon says and you should do half decent.

PS. drop 1 spiritseer and add another jetbike unit.

I know the wraithlord seems out of place but he seemed useful because he has some long range dakka and he can provide counter-assault for the wraithguard.

I've used the mantle once, rolled two ones in a row, killing my decked out autarch the first time he was shot at. I'll never use 40pts on it again.

Shuricannons on serpents seem like a bit overkill but I can see the utility of keeping the serpent shield available with the dires inside.

Spiders always perform well for me so I think I will drop the lord for another squad of warp spiders and shuricannons for the serpents. I'll edit the original post with revisions and an alternate list. Thanks for the help keep the reviews comin

Thats just as unlikely as failing 2 lookout sirs (which is what youb be doing in the jetbike squad) and killing him. You should have to roll 36 dice in one roll to get one wound on him. For only 40 points...

Shuricannons on serpents seem like a bit overkill but I can see the utility of keeping the serpent shield available with the dires inside. No dont keep the sheild up. Shoot everything, the scatter lasers, the sheild, and the shuiken cannon. thats 10-12 shots ALL twin linked and s6-7. Even if you move more than 6", the shuiken cannon should hit at least once, and then after that it will be just unloading pain.

Spiders always perform well for me so I think I will drop the lord for another squad of warp spiders and shuricannons for the serpents. I'll edit the original post with revisions and an alternate list. Thanks for the help keep the reviews comin

If there is just avengers in the serpents shoot everything, now if you have d scythe guard and they need to get somewhere, keep shields up till unloading time so they don't end up footslogging.
