Hello people,

Am looking to build a balanced army believe it or not. Hoping it will stand up to most opponents. Not looking to be all-conquering or anything like that though. Just something fun to play! Let me know what you think.

Cheers

I don't know why your Serpents say 2x EMLs, does that mean TL or that you have two? Because you can't have two on one Serpent.

Ditch the Reapers for another Wraithlord, he's barely more points and a much bigger distraction and just a better unit. Probably remove the Spear on the Guardian Warlock if you need points, I doubt he'll use it often.

Everything else is good, it's kind of all over but none of the units are bad. Maybe ditch a Scorpion to pay for the Wraithlord.

Not a bad setup for a hybrid list. I personally would change the reapers for for something else. The heavy weapons make them a very poor choice for dawn of war missions as they must move onto the table before they can try to fire and it only takes one bad save from the exarch to gut the squad. A wraithlord could work but I was thinking warwalkers, set up with scatterlasers they can do alot of damage. The scout move can also set them in good positions to start or you can outflank.
