The tempest launcher has more utility than the AML. With 9e having so much LOS blocking terrain, it might be better to 'snipe' out a hidden squad of minimal troops on an objective, ready to Raise Banners, etc. You might also consider moving all War Walkers to Eldrad's patrol detachment, and parsing the DRs into 3 units, with a Tempest Launcher each, so 9 of them, and still room for the 2 warlocks & Elddy.

I know that breaking the DRs into 3 small units makes Guide's impact a lot less. Having 9 or 10, Guided, heavy duty S8 reaper shots going at a Kinght or suped up PlagueBurstCrawler is an asset. But now you can consider if the other arrangement suits your local meta better. And you know, *owning* two more exarch models might be an obstacle.

For the warlocks, Children of Prophecy might also get you more mileage than Masterful shots. Except for muhreens, it seems a lot of armies are full of Invulnerables and won't benefit from cover, a better chance at Jinx, thus lowering a save, an invulnerable save, make make a lot more difference to the Dark Reapers' -2 AP shooting.

Of course you know your local meta better than I do and the terrain lay outs that might provide cover.

Overall, a good solid list ... even if by 8e standards.
