They all get battlefocus and the spiritseer gives a bubble of re-roll to hit against units within 18'

It's not exactly what you're looking for, but its a starting point

I've used this formation quite a bit but while good, it lacks psy support and doesn't scale well to either grow big enough to fill a list or small enough to let another formation fill the rest

Or the Wraith Formation in the IA book, however, this is technically "Apoc" so you will have to ask your opponent. I don't see anyone turning you down though, when it's a choice between WKnight or WSeer/WLord:

1 WSeer (Forgeworld model)
2+ WLords
2+ units WGuard/Blades

The Pale Courts Battlehost isn't "Apoc" it's an alternate core choice for the Warhost from Code Craftworlds just like company of the great wolf has an alternate detachment for Space Wolves.

Also both the battlehost (with craftworld traits) and the formation "Lord of the Undying Host" which is

1 Wraithseer
1-3 units of Wraithblades

or the actual Pale Courts Battlehost with craftworld traits "Graveyard of Dreams" and "Tomb-ship of Fallen Heros"

1 Wraithseer
3 units of Wraithblades
0-3 Guardian units
0-1 Warlock Council
0-1 Wraithlord

I believe these are what you're referencing from IA 11 2nd ed. If not please do tell where you found that formation. Regardless these formations are undesiriable due to the heavy Wraithblades requirement means the force will end up lacking ranged capacity.
