I'd say stick the DSLord with one of the wraith units but if you do that you may want to get yourself another HQ to be your warlord 'cause we will die in cc and you don't need to be giving away free victory points :(

Not a big fan of the ark either. Seems like an over costed rhino and in the new meta, with the exception of flyers (except against tau), your vehicles better pack a punch, i.e. ani barges.

With the exception of the ark you have no real way of moving troops around. You have a 10 man immortal squad in a NS and a 10 man warrior squad in a NS but I doubt they'll stay their long and that's a lot of fire power to spend the game zooming around which means there's a good chance they'll be in harms way early on (as they should be). What I do is fly 3 NS with a 5 man warrior squad + stormtek. They zoom around all game and turn 5 they beam down on an objective and blast away and either hold or contest an objective. If there's some armor that must go then they can beam down near it and glance it to death thanks to the storm tek and one or two 6's from the warriors.

Ok, so you can only snap fire so what? You hit on 6's anyway and you're TL AND you get to add two hits if you mange to roll a 6 on 8 dice (I say that 'cause you're rerolling 4 dice). Great against flyers and causing a grounding test minimally against FMC. I had a 10 man unit of warriors ground a DP where upon a unit of wraiths ate him for lunch
