1500 Lots of Poison

Okay so the Escalation league I'm apart of is up to 1,500 points and I don't have to worry about Lords of War or Allied armies just yet.  With that said I want to keep my opponents on their feet, I feel this list can do just that.

8x Reavers w/ 2x Blasters

8x Reavers w/ 2x Blasters

Heavy Support: (230 pts)
1x Tantalus w/ Nightshields

Total = 1499

I figured that the Reavers could take out any tuff Armour while the the Archon and his crew mopped up the rest of my opponents army, the Venoms and the rest can either take objectives or go hunting.  What do you guys think?

I think you forgot about AT...
Apart for the 6 blasters on reavers (that most of the time will just snap shot) you have absolutely nothing to harm heavy tanks/walkers.
Unless your meta is made of orks and nids only, I think with this list you will struggle against any list with AV12+ vehicles.
I do not remember the rules of the Tantalus, so maybe it brings some AT on the field, but it costs like 4 raiders...

I had the same thought as Javorra. You have pretty much have no anti-tank. And...you're NOT running Caltrops on your Reavers? You know your meta better than me, but if there's a chance of your opponent bringing two vehicles or walkers let alone spamming them, you are probably going to be in trouble. I'd shrink your Reavers down to six man squads with Caltrops. Get rid of the blasters and Arena Champs on the Reavers since you'll be jinking most likely and add one blaster to each Warrior squad. I"d also drop the Tantalus and get two Dark Lance Ravagers. And then I'd drop 3-4 Sslyth to take a Raider w/Dark Lance and Splinter Racks and maybe Night Shields so you can twin-link your primary poison delivery unit and protect them from return fire a little more.
