I think you lose every game with it when all your summoning points are dead on turn 2.

I hope you take it to the Chicago GT, so I can blast it to smithereens.

I'm not a Chaos player, but you don't have enough Icons to allow your demons through, do you?

And how are you going to deal with armies like Tau or Sisters that could move-shoot-move you into oblivion? Or shooty guard with good position and some armor?

For that matter, what are you going to do against armor? Do you really want to spend your HQ's time as armor-killers? The daemonettes won't be viable for that, I don't think, and unless your bikers are packing Meltas or plasma, they won't have much fun, either.

You will have real problems against the fish o fury tactic or other skimmer heavy forces. Rending demonettes fairly poorly against them (frankly have you given thought to a Nid force if you're that heavy into rending troops-go genestealer heavy if thats your bag). 

Anyone who can drag you out -pull you bikes in- will waste the bikes and concentrate on Siren boy.  As others have said, you could potentially be out of summoning points on turn 2 or at least have them severely restricted.

 

if you can have mounted daemonettes (you dont say which GT, if its not the UK then you can, mostly) then you can make this list much harder. take 2x siren bikers, and just turbo them around as 24" moving summoning portals.

if you fail to get siren, somehow, on both bikes, they've still got a 2+ invul to save them once they come out from hiding.
if one of the bikes gets siren but the other doesn't, the other one is still an IC so can't be targetted in shooting, so i think you can't shoot the siren, and you also can't shoot the non-siren because its not the closest target...

the pts might be wrong and i think you can fit in some more combat stuff like spikey bits or more siren rolls. the other minor powers are actually pretty good, like fueled by pain.

the lord has str8 all the time not just on the charge, and strikes before YOU.

i think this list is utter filth and very few things would stand a chance... everything can get rended even skimmer walls.

purely mechanised eldar is a nightmare though as they can escape you, and genestealer horde will defeat the daemons, and witch/demon-hunters obviously. everything else will just die
