Thanks for the reply, I actually edited the list right before testing it tonight against a friend's imperial guard.
It did very effectively in this new incarnation, more of an undying legion motif then a death star approach.
Overlord with phase shifter, gauntlet of fire & res orb(he got the outflank trait, did wonders for him in tonights game)
attached with a 10 man immortals squad with tesla
5 squads of warriors at 9 each, with a cryptek. (Low enough count to have many squads, but a bit higher so it takes more focus fire to kill. my opponent was pretty overwhelmed & he was IG)
3 wraiths w whip coils
3 destroyers
1 doomsday ark,
1 annial barge
1 doom scythe
The destroyers I include because I like the mobility, sadly I dont have more destroyers or I would include more to the unit. They do tend to die or come under heavy fire alot.
Perhaps I can sub them out for scarabs to get a bit more in their face & make them waste fire on that instead?

In the future, please use the modify button. Double posting is against the forum rules, and for that reason, the system merged your posts.
Update on how my tournament went.
Basically this list would have been effective if I could succeed on rolling any successful shooting/wound/saves/reconstructions.
Even my opponents where cringing in horror at how horrid I was rolling. My first match a clear win turned into a total loss due to crap rolls. It was all downhill from there.
I've decided to take that box of dice out back & make the others watch while I burn it with one of my stepdads blowtorches.
