So basically I'm still trying to find the Eldar play style i like the most, this is the only one i haven't tried yet. let me know what you guys think, if anything should be changed?

HQ:
-Farseer= 100pts
-Spiritseer= 70pts
x6 Warlocks /w Blades =210pts

Troops
x5 Wraith Guard =160pts
x5 Wraith Guard =160pts
x5 Wraith Blades w/ Swords =160pts
x5 Wraith Blades w/ Swords =160pts
x10 Guardians /w Scatter Lazer =110pts
x10 Guardians /w Scatter Lazer =110pts

Heavy Support
Wraith Lord /w Ghost Glaive x2 Flamers & Brightlances =165pts
Wraith Lord /w Ghost Glaive x2 Flamers & Brightlances =165pts
Wraith Knight /w Sun Cannon and Scatter Shield =280pts

For Grand total of 1850!

So the main idea is to have two columns or groups in the army, each identical, I'm sure you can tell whats in each group. However these groups will work together pushing up the front line with the support of the Seer Council to boost the up the units as they hide behind all of the big units. and then we have the mighty wraith knight just shooting away at what ever seems necessary.

Please let me know what you guys think, comments would be great, thanks!

It'll be an army that slows many lists, but it's also slow as all get out. If you go with Wraithblades you'll probably want at least a Spiritseer for Voice of Twilight (assuming you go Iyanden), but are better off with a Wave Serpent. Trim back the Warlocks and maybe a Wraithlord to slip in a few Serpents and/ or Dark Reapers. Most of your army has a 12" range or combat dependency for efficacy, so something that gets them into combat faster is a terrific investment. Dark Reapers can expand the firepower range, giving you more dice to roll turns 1 & 2, when you'll be walking up the board.

I'd really recommend two Spirit Seers. That way all your wraith units can be VoT turn one and doubles your odds of rolling up protect/jinx to make for tougher wraith guard. If you run Iyanden, that WK can be your warlord.

Have fun and paint Iyanden!

What exactly are the 6 warlocks for? They can't be added to Wraith units. You are better off spending the points on a second spiritseer and/or a 3rd. Gives your wraiths more oomph.

Grab the Guardian Helm of Xellethon for your farseer and stick it in wraith units, jumping from 1 to the next as they get wiped out.

So far the effectiveness of 10 Wraithblades with Ghost Axes:
Tanked 2 Leman Russ squadrons (including the battle cannons and the triple plasma variant); whilst also getting wailed on by everything imaginable in a Fortress of Redemption. Only to get into CC with the tanks and open them up.
2000 points worth of Necrons with Forgeworld additions. Got into CC with a court of Lords and opened them up.
Killed a GUO.
Killed Angrath the Gargantuan Bloodthirster in an Apoc game (with the help of Iranna the Spirit Seer).
Ate a Hammerhead, pathfinders and scored after 3 turns of walking towards a 2000 point Tau gunline and overwatch!
And counting............
