Hello gentlemen!
Which one would you rather play and which one is the most competitive in your opinion?
In both list Alarielle will pick her 4 spells from lore of light.
The defensive one:
Alarielle
Alith Anar
Sea helm BSB
banner of avelorn
Mage lvl. 2 light
Scroll
5 Reavers with spears and bows
5 reavers With bows
22 Archers
Mus + banner
7 Silver helms
banner + mus
26 White lions
full command
banner of the world
4 Bolt throwers
1 eagle
10 Sisters of avelorn
The offensive one:
Alarielle
Sea helm BSB
banner of avelorn
Mage lvl. 2 light
Scroll
Mage lvl. 1 light
Forbidden rod
Noble + eagle
Golden crown
Lion cloak + HA + lance
Shield
pot fool
9 Silver helms
mus
8 Silver helms
mus
5 Reavers w. spears and bows
5 Reavers w. spear and bows
24 White lions
full command
banner of the world
5 Dragon princes
flaming Banner
Frostheart
1 bolt thrower
The first list is about staying back and shoot/magic most things to pieces and then clean up with timewarped white lions. My one concern here is that it will be hard for me to pull off big wins with this kind of list.
The second list is all about rushing my opponents. Hopefully I can get the scroll in turn one with double banishment. Then I count on her buffing abilities with the banner of avelorn to make the rest of the army even more deadly.
Let me know what you guys think.

Re: Offensive vs. defensive evequeen lists
Yeah, I tend to agree with you Curu. However, I might end up with the offensive one, since I think it can be a lot of fun playing. 5++ White lions buffed up with further light magic (movement 10 
) accompanied by Sliver helms, dragon princes and a frostheart should just melt through most battle lines.

So far I have had most success with the defensive one. I swapped 2 bolt throwers and 2 sister for a lvl. 1 light mage with the forbidden rod. I think it is worth it having a s6 banishment instead of only s5.
Also I went for swordmasters instead of whitelions since I think the list have decent tools for taking out heavily amoured troops before combat. With the sea helms ability the swordmasters are great vs. a lot of stuff, as long as I can avoid to much 1+ amour save.
I just put up a quick battle report with this list.
