I am pretty certain that the rules for Veil of Tears in the Eldar Codex will replace those in the Dark Eldar Codex via FAQ in the immediate future if they haven't already... So you need to go play this ASAP!!! Beacuse it looks sweet! Are you placing the HQs with squads?

Ilic will go with the Pathfinders so he can deep strike them and not sure where to put Malys :p

you do realize Illic has to be on the table for Pathfinders to appear near him, and then they count as moved so will fire snapshots? bad idea imo...

Also, almost 500 points for Dark Reapers? are you sure you want to do that to yourself? now admittedly you do need some Anti-Tank... but for the same points as those 6 models and their Serpent (which has way too much wargear imo...) you could get a tooled-up squad of 10 Warp Spiders (that even kinda fit the Harlie theme, with their namesakes being the guardians of the webway and all, and will murder anything below AV13 and most infantry squads as well) plus a Wraithknight without upgrades - and especially the latter should be an absolute blast to paint Harlie-Style, and once done will look magnificent.
