lose the light armour from the archers, lose the command from the shadow warriors, split both the shadows and reavers into two units, lose the champion from the reavers. Light troops are best in smaller, harrassing units, and a 6+ save rarely, if ever, does anything.

Give the Noble a Great Weapon instead of an additional HW. He needs the Strength to kill things better.

I use Light Armour on my Archers for fluff reasons, but unless you have those then I'd drop it.

The War Machines seem a little cumbersome for the theme you have going on here, but... I can see you're doing a shooty thing. What is the fluff question (that Mage is an awesome model if it's the one I'm thinking of)
