So I started designing a new Eldar list today with some ideas I got from the event....
CAD
HQ1 Farseer
HQ2 Autarch - Fusion Gun
Troops1 5 Dire Avengers
Transport1 Wave Serpent - TL Shuriken Cannon & Shuriken Cannon
Troops2 5 Dire Avengers
Transport2 Wave Serpent - TL Shuriken Cannon & Shuriken Cannon
Troops3 10 Guardians - Shuriken Cannon
Transport3 Wave Serpent - TL Shuriken Cannon & Shuriken Cannon
FA1 Crimson Hunter Exarch
FA2 3 Vypers - 6x Shuriken Cannons
Heavy1 3 Falcons - 6x Shuriken Cannons & 3x Pulse laser
Aspect Host
Elite1 5 Fire Dragons - Exarch
Elite2 5 Fire Dragons - Exarch
Elite3 5 Fire Dragons - Exarch
The idea being to reserve the plane and DS the cloudstriking Falcon squadron full of Fire Dragons.
Using this build, I would drop the Vypers for 2 Hornets with Pulse Lasers and get Spiritstones and a Spear on the Farseer
, I think you might have to drop the Shuriken Cannon on the Guardians to accommodate

Cool thanks Rob, any particular reasons for those changes? Also, can I use the Autarchs ability to +/- 1 to reserve rolls if he himself is in reserve?

HQ1 Farseer - Singing Spear
HQ2 Autarch - Fusion Gun
Troops1 5 Dire Avengers
Transport1 Wave Serpent - TL Shuriken Cannon & Shuriken Cannon
Troops2 5 Dire Avengers

Heavy1 3 Falcons - 6x Shuriken Cannons & 3x Pulse laser
Aspect Host
Elite1 5 Fire Dragons - Exarch
Elite2 5 Fire Dragons - Exarch
Elite3 5 Fire Dragons - Exarch
Total 1850pts
No room for spirit stones
Sure,
Vypers are poor and Hornets are awesome!
Spiritstones are for Prescience or if you happen to roll Invis or Missfortune/Doom/Fortune etc I would then drop a Shuriken Cannon from a Serpent and the Spear from the Farseer and add them on
I would say this is only optional though.
I like the list as you have it!
Practice, practice and practice some more mate!
Looks great dude! Your loving those fire dragons!!
Just thinking JJ, are you tempted by a Guardian Battle Host? You gain auto run 6" which is huge for the Fire Dragons (18" melta range out the back of the those Falcons)
Or a wraith knight? :p lol
Looks great JJ, want to face my dark angels sometime?!

The Vypers have consistently performed well for me to be honest. 18 shots at S6. Haven't really got the points for spirit stones though. :/
