How its meant to work:

The stars of the show are meant to be the Reavers; the rest of the army's been picked with supporting them in mind. The Night Spinner, Ravagers and Wave Serpent give the list a decent ranged presence, with the Farseer mainly being there to boost that. The Raiders add a bit more anti-tank firepower.

I am a little short of anti-air firepower but am gambling on being able to cope with anything other than multiple drakes by a) Not caring that much b) Zooming by under them c) The Wave Serpent and 2 Ravagers, with good rolls, can give me a large amount of twin-linked shooting which can be used to take down a flyer in a pinch.

So... any thoughts?

Imo..

You may benefit from a haem as he is cheaper.. the archon seems wasted points as you have no cc unit for him to go with.. he is a god of cc afterall..

You don't have enough troops..drop a ravager or both unless your meta is tank heavy you have more than enough AT with the reavers..get in some more warriors with venoms in stead if raiders or if you take more troops put a squad of ten in a raider.. also maybe some wracks to go with the haem to sit on your home objective..

I don't bother with anti air outside of having a razorwing just in case to dogfight as I generally find we are fast enough to ruin a flyers day with out manoeuvring after taking a beating the turn they arrive...

I'm no general of DE but just what I've gathered so far from my own lists trial and errors

I would change the reavers for heat lances..less points and better AT..

Also one last thing your anti infantry is suffering if you come up against hordes.. consider some trueborn in venoms.. I prefer 3x2 splinter cannons in venoms w extra cannon.. that's 48 poison shots for around 130pts
