Well, looks like an army that can be fun to play.
However, you might get problems with fast moving armies
that are able to threaten your Pathfinders.

Yeah....i've never played eldar b4, but considering playing them since my DE have to wait for new models and codex next fall. Funny thing, i happen to have eldrad and the avatar. I did like the wave serpents but i wanted to see how many pathfinders i could put in a list just for fun. however i would guess that if i were to be competitive (as in 2500 points level) i would have 10 squad DA with exarch with bladestorm with a wave serpent. However i honestly dont know where to put eldrad and i almost want to just have a double avatar duo to draw fire away from the troops and whatnots, however i then have no psychic defense.
I think im pretty sold on WL's. they have a sexy model and are probably 1 of my fav units in 40k. the pathfinders honestly are just there becuz i like the idea of an exodite army using extensive use of pathfinders, with some decent heavy's. I was considering war walkers, but they seem more of a FA choice. and i dont really like the vypers much, there like weak versions of DE raiders.(plus i hate BS3, i've been too happy with my BS4 lately ) and i didnt want fire prisms, as i liked the idea of a almost tankless army (excluding the dragons since i will NOT limit myself game wise by not putting my anti tank in a WS. Suffice it to say the few tanks they have are only given to aspect warriors)

the Pea-shooter is not very worth it. Plus the wraithlord is the sturdiest mount for a flamer in the whole Eldar army (out of like 4 choices).

That looks like a fun list. The Pathfinders sit in cover and pepper the enemy with rending sniper shots. Great idea.

Swap the scatter laser for BL, scata for additional flamer.

Major issue you will have is your Pathfinders will be flappin in the breeze with the only thing protecting them being the slow moving WL/Avatar. Anything fast would chew this up pretty bad.

I can agree with that. However my major issue is i usually just find out what the WAAC list is and then modify it to what i like more. However I couldnt find that particular list, so i went with what i thought sounded fun. I mean I'm sure It would be better if i had 2 pathfinder groups at either 5 or 10 (or somewhere in between) to grab a homefield objective and also to irritate the opponent (and the rest of the troop choices be DA in WS). My other problem is i have absolutely no idea how to equip my people. And i know for a fact that i wont be fielding farseers, as i love dps/tank h.q.'s, and not a support one. Seer councils never seemed to interest me, as i was sure you had to wound allocate abuse to make it worth it (something that i feel just seems like a giant waste of points). Plus avatar is only 155 points, and for an MC thats pretty cheap. Same with eldrad, great psy defense, and some semi decent troop murdering (talking about munching guard here not heavy infantry, say SM). Again i dont know where to even put eldrad and again i almost want to drop a WL for a falcon and throw eldrad and say yriel in and see what they do (with a squad to hide in of course) however, i am a great advocate of target saturation, so as soon as i mention who's in the falcon, my opponent will know exactly where to me. Plus i LOVE wraithlords.
