Nice to see blasters going down to 10 points for the reaver though.  I may try them out.

I would rather go with Heatlances. 2pts of damages versus the option to fire after additional 8" at 3+.
Provided you use Splintermind. And honestly, when do you need that? 18" range plus 18" movement should cover enough ground.
I think, Heatlances are the new black to wear on Reavers.

Agree. Though being able to advance with evis fly by and still shoot/charge is what I was thinking. It makes character sniping easier.

The fact that they are both 10 points makes it an even trade off and tough choice.

I considered that, but how often do you use the fly by strat? Most of the times its 2CP.
Doing this too much will very quickly drain your pool, leaving the rest of your army with far less options.

I will use it twice a game at most. It is key to taking out characters or finishing off a squad in combat so that another squad can move/shoot/charge. This is with my usual squad of 9 reavers.

Hm, sounds nice. Usually I use 2 squads of 6. I have to try that. Luckily, there are three somewhere in my pile of shame.
Thx! I hope...
