I'm missing just under 200 pts and was wondering what hq would fit well with this type of army. Originally, jain zar or perhaps yriel would accompany the mounted wraithguard while they perform their suicide run towards the biggest threat. Since wraithguard suffer in hth, a decent character should give it enough punch to warrant second thoughts. The rangers stay in reserve (and alive) until i have to bring them in via outflank or normal reserve bee lining for the objectives. The big wraithguard squad marches up the middle along with their two big brothers forming my mini wraithbone wall. harlies stick to the sides or behind to counter assault anything that tries to bog the wraithguard down. Perhaps an avatar as my second hq would be worth it just to field another monstrous creature. I know WS's on the wraithlords isn't that smart, but i love the swords to much to let em go. Seer council acts as a mobile reserve going where needed, usually backing up the mounted WG. I realize fire dragons are cheaper, but this is a heavily themed list with no aspects. :(
Other than the small issue of this army having a majority range of 12", what other issues can you see? I'm hoping all those MC will help with AT, as well as all the witchblades going around the army. Anti horde is delegated to the wraithlords, harlies, and destuctorlocks. Keep in mind this isn't supposed to be an end all list, just something fluffy and somewhat competitive.
