A tentative list made with the shiny new codex. It was designed to be fluff over substance, but comment on how you think it'd do anyway.
Lelith
Incubi @ 5, onslaught, demiklaives, venom - 195
Trueborn @ 10, plasma nades x 10, blaster x 2, shard carbine x 8, raider, torment launcher, flickerfield - 275
Bloodbrides @ 4, haywire nades x 4, venom - 115
Warriors @ 10, splinter cannon, raider, torment launcher, splinter rack, night shield - 185
Wyches @ 10, hydra gauntlets x 2, raider, torment launcher, chain snare - 190
Scourges @ 5, heat lance x 2 - 134
Reavers @ 3, caltrops - 86
Voidraven
1500
Lelith rides with the bloodbrides, then splits up into three units when inside enemy lines. The bomber comes with no missiles, much to my dismay, but the rest of my AT is fairly evenly distributed, if a touch fragile. But then again, this is DE - it's all fragile.
The general idea is to try to blow up as much of the enemy AT before moving on to the assaults.
If only the raiders had scout... If only...

So when are you coming down so I can help you test the list out?  Seems like this list would rip MEQs a new one, but as you say, there's a lot of potential for it to go horribly wrong horribly fast. Woe betide you if you get second turn... Also, as much as I like the new Lelith model and the rules, it would be nice to see a DE list without her... Reds |

Well, AEtha was always intended to be Lelith. You know, back when she was half the cost. And the current cost is an accurate representation of her awesome.

And potentially dish out more than 10 attacks on the charge.

I believe the weapon you're thinking of is called the "Incinerator."

I am curious, it's an invulnerable save, but it's blatantly described as a dodge; can she dodge things that ignore invulnerable saves? After all, she wouldn't need to roll a save if the attack doesn't hit her, and phase blades and fancy bolter shells aren't described as changing course to deal with dodging targets, they're described as being able to bypass force fields.

I've heard this one come up before with Death Cultists for Witch/Daemon Hunters. Technically their invulnerable save is a "dodge" too, but the errata posted on the GW site states that there are no subcategories of invulnerable saves. |

Huh. I wonder if they'll revisit that. Otherwise, I'm going to stick to dodging swords, and forget about practicing dodging fire.
