Hai Guys!

I uncovered some Eldar models in a box and said, Huh, i'll start an army from that. The sprues i found was the 10 man dire avanger kit, and a metal warlock
So, Any tactica or list building tips as to how i could create an Eldar Shooty list? Hopefully with lots of dire avengers cos' they are cool, and maybe some psychic powers to assist my shooting eldar?
Other than that, i have absolutely no knowledge with eldar besides them being my 5th favorite faction. I know a large amount of fluff, because we all love the fluffyness right? But other than that i have no knowledge of tabletop eldar stats or "Good units"

To sum up, I'm looking to build a Rather shooty list, because i love ranged combat, with some psychic and/or fast attack support, What units/ loadouts would you guys recommend?
Cheers! ~ Ashley

I use Dire Avengers in Wave Serpents, usually backed up by Wraithguard in Wave Serpents and some tanks / Wraithknight, and a couple of jetbike units as objective grabbers.

I generally lead with a Spiritseer, because he's cheap and works out of the box.

^^This^^ except I prefer Swooping Hawks and Warp Spiders instead of the Wraithknight. Much Dakka! It's also worth mentioning that a jetseer with guide and prescience makes any list he's in Dakka+1. Twin linking in this edition is superb because of the need for AA, snapshooting and overwatch.

My Warp Spiders currently have the largest number of aircraft kills in my gaming group and that includes other flyers!

Nightspinners are also well worth a luck, particulary if you're going for guidy jetseer. No-where your opponent can hide from them, gets behind defense lines, nails vehicles in the side armour and pins. These also work straight out of the box and a superbly tactical heavy support choice for 115pts, meaning you have more points to spend on warp spiders, dire avengers, wraithguard and swooping hawks. Yarrr!
