1000pts list harlequins - which is better?

Hi Guys, which list seems to better to you? Both are battalions, they are very similar. I have problem deciding which way to go    

Hq1: troupe master + fusion pistol + embrace
Hq2: troupe master + fusion pistol + embrace
Troop1: 5x player + 5 embrace + 1 fusion pistol
Troop2: 5x player + 5 embrace + 1 fusion pistol
Troop3: 6x player + 6 embrace
Flyer: voidraven dark scythe + missiles
Transport: 3x Starweaver
Total 993pts

Or

Hq1: shadowseer
Hq2: troupe master + fusion pistol + embrace
Troop1: 5x player + 5 embrace + 1 fusion pistol
Troop2: 5x player + 5 embrace
Troop3: 5x player + 5 embrace
Flyer: voidraven dark scythe
Transport: 3x Starweaver
Total 998pts

:%s/shadowseer/farseer ?

I think double Troupe Master is better but you should take more Fusion Pistols. Maybe only equipment 3 Players in each unit with Embraces and shave some points off to buy you more Pistols. Players #4 & 5 basically become the squad's ablative wounds.

Farseer seem to be nice alternative but to catch up with hariel it should be skyrunner and it is ~40pts more :/

If it comes to more fusion pustols I worked out something like this:

Hq1: troupe master + fusion pistol + embrace
Hq2: troupe master + fusion pistol + embrace
Troop1: 5x player + 5 embrace + 3 fusion pistol
Troop2: 5x player + 5 embrace + 2 fusion pistol
Troop3: 5x player + 5 embrace + 2 fusion pistol
Flyer: voidraven dark scythe
Transport: 3x Starweaver
