1500 point shooting list

So I've been working on this 1500 point list, meant mainly to be a shooting army. The idea however is that I want to be versatile, thus the Wych and Reaver squads. The Wyches are meant to tarpit and tie up units, while bringing the Archon with to add killing power. The Reavers are there to contest, draw fire, and harass like crazy, as I've really had a lot of success with them. I'm using Dissies on the Raiders because I figured those particular units are mainly meant for anti-infantry, and dissies are better than DLs for that, especially against those tougher armor saves, while still being able to hurt vehicles. I would assume 8 DLs and 6 Blasters are enough for AV duty, though I'm fine with swapping out the Dissies. Anyways comments on the list would be much appreciated, thanks!

generaly seems solid (maybe beside lance born to my taste), but as you said, Archon loadout is meh. Why you want Power weapon? Especialy power sword? If you realy want that AP than go for Agonizer, which is always better. I love my huskblade realy. But if you have points for Agonizer/ VB + Power sword, than why not Huskblade? So IMO just venomblade would do fine if you don't want huskblade.

Yea I was editing my post as you commented, because I'd messed up my points count, meaning I ended up having 20 more points to use. I swapped to a Huskblade and Soultrap for that AV2 threat. You're right, taking a power weapon, especially sword was a bit odd.

Do you ever feel like the Huskblade under-performs due to the Archon's low strength?

Well some ppl say thats why they don't like it. Personaly I find it reliable to hunt even T6 MCs.
