here's what I'm thinking of for the tag team....
HQ:
Overlord in command barge with warscythe, mindshackle, weave
Royal court: Two harbringer of the storm crypteks
Troop:
5 immortals with tesla - cryptek goes here 5 immortals with tesla - cryptek goes here
Fast:
6 wraiths - 3 whip coils 6 wraiths - 3 whip coils
Heavy:
Annihilation barge
1k total - used swing slot for the second unit of wraiths...

well personally, I'd drop 6 wraiths for more immortals, then you get the special rule dunno who/what your teammate is bringing

A single USR would not compensate for the loss of a full unit of wraiths, so wouldn't be likely to do that...
everything in the list other than the two troops moves very fast (12" plus a turn) and the troops sit on objectives... if anyone tries to come over to think about tank shocking they get haywired by the cryptek....
I'm teaming up with Tommy, so will either get to have guard buddies or dark eldar buddies with me....

The lord on the barge at this level seems like major overkill. But considering all the characters likely to make an appearance in lists, I wouldn't think hes out of place.
I agree a 2nd Wraith unit is better than a USR, but I have to think your light on scoring, especially mobile scoring. Through, it is a very solid backfield/support list and would make a great pairing with a more aggressive midfield army/list, so I agree with the DE being a solid pairing

...sadly without night scythes (which I own zero) mobile scoring is just not in the cards for my crons... ... after spending copious amounts on this army, I just can't justify more to run scythes or enough arks to make a difference (currently can run one as I magnetized and ark/doom) So yeah Ray, I certainly agree with your assessment of the scoring limitations... thankfully Tommy's gonna take care of that... maybe... lol... hopefully! best I can offer is tank-shock defense... but objectives outside of my deployment zone... yeah, not so good with those! ....as usual in tag teams, I'll be relying on my partner's skill and ability
