Seriously, dire avengers and dark reapers should probably be included over swooping hawks, shining spears, and vipers.

Since I dont play Eldar, I can only go by things aesthetically, which for me are the Striking Scorpions. They're rather... striking. Hurr hurr.

But seriously, I love the models, and would love the paint the Exarch with the Biting Blade.

Warp Spiders. I love the concept of short-range teleportation. Look at the intro vid for DoW II.

But I guess Harlequins work too... I still have to paint the other half of those...

Wraithguard... T6 troops baby, who cares about cost Necromancer Elves in Space!

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

I'm glad that my troll impression had the authenticity of a misspelling within it.

Well, I'm not the Eldars biggest fan, but from a purely "thats awsome" point of view, it's either Wraithlords, Spiders (there's a point, why don't Warp spiders have a phoenix lord?), or Jetbikes (Got a healthy respect for these after playing my brothers Girl friends completely insane Eldar list.).

I like the sleek look of the Wraithguards and Wraithlords. I especially like the thought of Wraithlords with big swords lopping people in two whilst blazing away with forearm flamers.

Warp spiders as they can warp in, shoot your infantry to pieces and disappear in the same turn!

Welcome to the Daemonhunters, the ranks of the exalted Ordo Malleus and their cannon fod....er, I mean, loyal allies. Remember...the only ones who need fear the righteous might of the Ordo Malleus are the Daemonic.

They don't have a Phoenix Lord because they are all that awesome I know I'm a bit behind the times (gaming pc still in construction) but the warp spider in the intro for DOW2 kicks arse
