A friend of mine suggested that I tried a farseer/harlequin combo.
Here's what my version of it looks like:

Only real concern is your wyches in my opinion. They are pretty good, but they are your scoring/suicide units yes? I like the cheap archons, but I think you would be better served with finding a place for maybe the baron. And where do you intend to put the archons? The harli death star?

I don't really have any major changes to recommend. The wyches seem fine to me as anti-tank/emergency tie up units. If I did mention something though it would be that you should specify what type of power weapon the troupe master has (Sword, Axe, Lance, or Mace, Lance might be good if you make use of hit and run otherwise Sword is decent, Mace is good if you won't face Marines, Axe is probably not needed thanks to Kisses). Otherwise it looks good to me.

Thx for the comments!

I'm planning on using a lance on the troupemaster since I prefer lances over swords (and they look better)

The Cons are to go with the Clowns as extra bashing power but since those clowns don't really need that I think their main role will be at the front of the group, absorbing hits with their shadow field.
