I played eldar back in 2nd edition and really have not touched them since. When the new codex came out I decided to give them a go again. The list I made is for tournaments and all comers. All constructive critisism is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

"Power Weapon; Shuriken Pistol (Sp); Fusion Gun "

too many weapons i believe unless he joins a unit he will be gunned down and have little impact unless you plan to have in with hawks

some units are too small to be affective

i wouldnt laod the wraithlords like that first you can only fire 2 guns a round so when would you fire the shur cat? a second flamer is more useful as its more useful for killing hordes in cover

also a BL and missile combi is a more effective tank hunter as a tsr 6 star cannon isnt going to be much good at targets you are firing a bl at

star cannon and scatter laser is a better light vehicle hv inf killer on wraithlords

The Autarch will most likely go with the SH, I made the changes to the WL. I suspect the majority of my opponents will be MEQ. My original design was 4 squads of guardians with StarC, 2WL w/ BL and 2 Wave serpents with StarC but I thought that would be a little too cheesy. I want the list to be very competative but dont want to be too much over the top and people start crying ( of course by the end of the tournament I may have wished I had....LOL). Good advice on the flamers btw....like I said its been a long while since I played eldar or 40k for that matter.

In this size game the Spiders are too small to be effective; in smaller games maybe, but they jsut won't have enough shots. I recommend at least another two or three.

The banshees are going to be shot to pieces. You really need to get a transport for them, otherwise they won't reach your enemy.

One way of getting the points is to sacrifice the rangers. They may come in handy, but I think their points can be spent elsewhere to better the list.

Your dire avenger exarches should have twin catapults rather tan singles; every shot counts.

You Autarch (or any other model for that matter) is only allowed to have two weapons, so he either has to take the power weapon with a shuriken pistol or a fusion gun, not both.



By the way, you don't need to write each stat or ability a unit has. Generally just the unit and their points, and any upgrades or options. It makes lsits much less confusing to read. Below is how I personally do it, but then again my way isn't necessarily the right way:

Your Autarch entry would become:
HQ:
Autarch w/ Mandiblaster, S-Hawk Wings, Power Weapon and Fusion Gun
- 120

and your Dire Avengers entry would become:
Troops:
10 Dire Avengers
Exarch w/ Avenger S-Catapult and Bladestom
Wave Serpent w/ Spirit Stones. Vectored Engines and TL Scatterlaser
- 292

I agree with lich too much info on units eg we all know a wraithlord is a monsterous creature and has wraithsight lol

other wise all lists are welcome , :D
