In competitive tourney's do Dual jet council lists fair well at all against the power builds? Or against anything competitive? I have heard they are basically unkillable but it seems like to much of a point sink to do well...

As a avid Saim-Hann Eldar player I would never field dual bike councils. Too many points and really you make it very difficult for your list to field the appropriate hammers to go with the anvil of a council against things like MANz and Termies.

The bane of witch blades is 2+ armor and without a power weapon of volume fire (DA squads or heavy guardian jetbike fire for the truly Saim-Hann at heart) you simply will not get rid of those 2+ save having bastards before they put a serious dent or six into your councils.

Now, it can be worthwhile to run double foot council in serpents, one containing Eldrad for power weapon punch, but I personally prefer a single large council with banshee/Melee Wraith lord support and a good DA squad with the guide/doom accoutrement provided by a seer or Eldrad.

All in all, at most point levels, the double bike council is so many points that it massively cripples your army against a majority of the power builds/units out there... but it can be fun!
