So I'm going to the Baltimore GT in November, and I need to put together a new army.  Here's my two ideas:

 #1

Autarch                  
Jetbike                
Mandiblaster         
Power Weapon        
Reaper Launcher  
 
 
ELITES
10 Striking Scorpions                 
     Exarch                                         
     Chain Sabres                             
  
Wave Serpent                                     
Twin-Linked Starcannons               
Spirit Stone                                          
 
TROOPS
10 Dire Avengers                                    
     Exarch                                                      
     Power Weapon & Shimmershield         
     Defend                                                               
Wave Serpent                                               
Twin-Linked Bright Lances                    
Spirit Stone                                                
 
10 Dire Avengers              
     Exarch                                                
     Power Weapon & Shimmershield        
     Defend                                                    
                
Wave Serpent                                        
Twin-Linked Bright Lances                   
Spirit Stone       
 
12 Jetbikes                                     
Warlock                                                             
     Embolden                     
 
FAST ATTACK
3 Vypers                        
3 Starcannons                   
3 Spirit Stones                 
 
HEAVY SUPPORT
Fire Prism                   
Spirit Stone

I like this army list because 1) with the exception of the Vypers, every weapon is BS 4 or higher, or twin-linked; 2) everything has the potential to move 12 inches and still fire to full effect, or move 24 inches.  The down-side is the low model count (34 models with a T and W).

Curse these formatting blunders!

The 2nd army list has more troops and a second Fire Prism.  On the down-side, not everything is as mobile.

Tell me what you think.  Thanks!

Edited out the point costs.  Sorry about that, I didn't realize.

You really need to remove all of those point costs for upgrades in there ASAP, as it is a violation of GW's IP.

As for the lists, I think 12 jetbikes is too large a group to effectively use terrain, scorpian exarchs are pretty much always better off with the claw, brightlances are far too costly and should have EMLs subbed for them, and fire prisms without holofields are giving up one of their best advantages.

What Slyde says. GW gets very angry when individual point costs are listed. Save Dakka some trouble and remove them.

As for your lists...

Their solid. Scorpions in WS's aren't something i'm fond of. They've got a good armor save, and with their exarch skills, they can keep themselves hidden and such until they need to make an appearance. If i'm going to give a CC unit a wave serpant, it would be the Banshees. But if it works for you, go for it.

Now get those point costs for the wargear removed. Keeping total costs for the unit is fine, but breaking it down item by item is just asking for trouble.
