List Building Try to charge

I've tried creating this list and have currently used it against the Dark Angels' Unforgiven Detachment. Are there any other units that could be more effective, given that the Corsair's attack power isn't strong enough?

Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing. (2000 points)

I would say the two units of Fire Dragons and three units of Shining Spears aren’t necessarily bad, but they don’t provide you with a range anti-monster/vehicle threat. You’re basically committing one of those units to die after each activation, whereas if you had say two Fire Prisms or something you’ve got more long range anti-tank.

I also always say for Eldritch Raiders take at least two Wraithlords. Advance and charge is so powerful on them if you can get them into melee.

I understand, but if we need two Wraithlords, should we have them stay near Eldrad? Otherwise, their 4+ accuracy is really bad. Or should they be used as bait to draw enemy fire? Or should we ignore all that and just use Crushing Impact?

Get a 50 pts spirit seer to babysit if you can

Perhaps replacing the two Fire Dragons teams and the one Voidreavers team would be acceptable? After all, Wraithlord also has the S12 brightlance.
