Though a very straightforward approach, I think it could work. I know for sure that Reavers combined with the Bo'Sun makes for some serious goodness: I have a mere 100-point Corsair force for lightning skirmishes and it really came in handy.
I'm trying to think of what could be a real problem for your force. From the get-go it looks almost silly, but in application an army like this could work. Sure they're only Strength 3, but F5 and 2A makes up for that. The real problem is your Defense 4. On the plus side, you're going to be fighting a lot of S3 opponents, so that's no sweat. But on the downside, arrows are quite a bit more effective against you.
I think what you should do is switch the crossbowmen out for Haradrim Raiders with bows. If you use them in a loose skirmish formation ahead of your Reavers, then they'll have a much better chance of reaching the enemy (Though the chances of your skirmishers surviving the ordeal is iffy). Plus, the added mobility can come in handy for a variety of the objective games as well as kiting if you have to play defensively with your infantry. They can also maneuver around the enemy and help the infantry out when you inevitably end up facing a Gondor or, heaven forbid, a Dwarf phalanx.
