A single prism isn't really that good. Swap it for a night spinner, or swap one of the falcons to a prism.

The exarch on the fire dragons is overkill.

what is a night spinner?

"The Night Spinner gives long range supporting fire to Eldar armies. A barrage of mono-filament wire from the Night Spinner will presage an Eldar assault, pinning the enemy beneath a constricting web of razor-sharp fibres whilst the rest of the Eldar forces sweep forwards to attack. Complete multi-part Resin and Plastic kit. Master model by Will Hayes." From forge world.

This is typical of what I field at 1500 points. It gives you solid anti-troop, and alot of anti-armour. I hope this helps.

Skimmers should have stones, at least the Serpents.
What are the vectored engines good for?
Both runes are mandatory in 5th ed.

For some reason, stones never really help me, now vectored engines help me because I always end up getting immobilized results on my prisms. It seems every games I play, I'll lose 2 from it. I just have gak luck.

Both runes are certainly not "a must have in 5ed", the only time where RoWit is needed is in a seer council. Stones are not a must have on any serpents except the fd serpent. Vectored engines are however a complete waste. A prism should not be going flat out so often that they are worth their pts.

Drop the VE and take stones on one farseer and drop doom on the other.

Then take RoWard on the other and stones on the fd serpents. Would downgrade the scatters to cannons and then upgrade the weapons on the DA serpents
