I am generally curious to know if anyone likes/dislikes eldar vehicle upgrades. I've been thinking about adding them in my lists but I thought I'd ask the internet first. If you like dislike any of them please tell me why.

Well, with the new codex in a week, this info will be outdated soon.

Currently i have stopped using falcon chassis vehicles. Too expensive for too little firepower and too dangerous when they explode. The upgrades are doubly bad. Not a single one is worth taking in 6th edition besides maybe star engines if you really need to cross that board.

Eh, the Underslung Shuriken Cannon is totally worth it 6th edition since you can now move the full 12 inches and still fire 2 guns at full ballistic skill.

I run tl Scatter Laser + Underslung Shuriken Cannons on all of my Wave Serpents.

As for the other upgrades, don't touch, hull points and the changes to glancing hits made spirit stones not really worth it, vectored engines were never worth it, and now holofields are about 30 points overcosted. Star Engines can still be cool if you really like movement, but generally Eldar Skimmers are fast enough with a 12 inch move and 18 inch turbo boost.

thanks guys!

As afore mentioned only bother with the underslung cannon and nothing else. ^th ed changes mean that spirit stones are pointless and holofields are overpriced and not as effective as they were in 5th. Although if im short on points i dont usually give my two fire prisms cannons as they are usually keeping away from things any way and 115 points per tank is quite good i find.
