this is a totally new list for me, and i've never used it though i have the models. the DAVU units are small, and i'm willing to accept that for now. i'm hoping that between my HQ and Heavy Support i have enough to worry about that they'll be overlooked for a decent portion of the game.

the Autarch may seem pointless, but i wanted a 'peel away' unit that could go by himself and stand a chance by himself against Dreads and undersized SM squads. not only that, but i have to go 2nd against a gunline, i can choose to reserve and only have to roll a 3 to get my Reserves in, which in my own mind, gives me confidence.

the Dragons are overkill with eight, but TBH i'd rather have numbers over an Exarch that may not add much; that too is supposed to be an anti MEQ/armor threat.

meta game at my FLGS consists of varying kinds of MEQ's (CSM, BT, Codex SM, some BA) and of course a lot of mech (IG mostly) so i'm hoping i can put the hurt on some squadrons with the Dragons, not to mention that if the BLs get lucky in killing a LR (and some of my pals love running 1-2 LRs and 1-2 Vindies at 2K) i can use the Dragons to kill termies.

i know it may seem as if i'm set on this list, but it's not so: any suggestions would be welcome. thanks in advance.

Can your Farseer Doom a different target to your jetbike squad? I didn't think so, and I don't see Doom helping that much either way. (The other thing is that, glancing over your list, you're definately rocking the S6+ firepower. So I don't think it does that much even on the rare times it can be cast on something not then obliterated by the council. Why not Mind War instead? Laugh with pitiless glee as you take out the hidden fist! And so on...

Otherwise, yes. Solid, even scary list.
