I like list 1 too Chris. Although I would swap out the Sorcerer for a lord as he is fearless but I guess you loss the pysker element if you do.

I can smell the cheese of list one! Love it!
Take the Helldrake everytime!! It REALLY compliments the rest of your force.
I do love this list I thought about taking a while back, but realised I couldn't afford it:
Destroyer Lord - Weave, Scarabs
5 Warriors in Nightscythe
5 Warriors in Nightscythe
5 Warriors in Nightscythe
6 Wraiths
6 Wraiths
6 Wraiths
Anni Barge

Sorcerer
10 Cultists
Helldrake
1850pts

Thanks guys. Yeah I agree it is a bit cheesy with the chaos stuff just there for the heldrake, but I fancy taking a cheesy list and seeing how well I do before going back to dark angels!
Might go for the lord, only reason I was taking the sorcerer is he was 5pts cheaper.
That list you posted is a bit toooo spammy for me Rob but I can see why it'd be good. I like the deathmark unit, love the idea of the doomscythe and it's potential, and like having the veil units that can hop about the board so want to fit all those in the list. Plus I don't have any wraiths and 18 would cost a lot...
Looks like I may be getting a heldrake for Christmas!

RE: battlefield Birmingham 5 40k tournament - Embolden - 05-12-2013
Looks a solid list bar the Dire Avengers, they're not gonna get that far, if you get the chance, I would swap them out for Jetbikes.
I would also be tempted to combine the Guardian squads for a super unit that could benefit from the Farseers powers.
