So right now im trying to write a 1500 point tournament list for eldar and I have decided on a seer council list as i feel that gives me the most opportunity to make interesting conversions, both have d.eldar allies. I have narrowed it down to 2 list so im looking o you guys to help me decided which:


list 1

Farseer with bike, runes of witnessing, spear and the shard

Farseer with bike, runes of witnessing and spear

Baron

8 warlocks on jetbikes, with 1 spear

3 units of jetbikes

5 kabalite warriors

2 stock wraithknights

list 2

Farseer with bike, runes of witnessing, spear and the shard

Farseer with bike, runes of witnessing and spear

Baron

8 warlocks on jetbikes, with 4 spears

3 units of jetbikes

2 units of 5 kabalite warriors in venoms with additional cannon and grisly trophys

Either 2 units of 2 war walkers with double scatter lasers, or 2 fire prisms with holo fields

List 2, you will need the grisly trophies because each and everyone of your perils will be costing you 50pts. You should go with the Fire Prisms due to their AT.

I think i would go

7 warlocks, 5 spears
2 farseers spears, shard
baron

2x 5 man dire avenger units with wave seprents with holo fields and TL-SL

3 man jetbike unit

2x units of kabalite warriors in venoms with cannons and trophies

Any Vehicle the waveserpents can't kill use spears/the council.

I don't see the point in swapping fire prisms for wave serpants as anti tank, the fire prisms do it better

The point is you have 2 more scoring units that are actually durable, venom warriors and jetbikes don't make for great scoring v.s. good generals. Having the wave serpents gives you 2 units that are much much harder to kill. The fact that they deal with AV 10-12 amazingly well is just an added bonus. Lastly they are fairly decent AA in a list that has none.

Lets try another list after some advice

Farseer with bike, runes of witnessing, spear and the shard

Farseer with bike, runes of witnessing and celestial lance <---- warlord rolling on iyanden

Baron

7 warlocks on jetbikes, with 4 spears

1 unit of jetbikes

2 units of dire avengers in wave serpents with scatter laser and holo fields,

2 units of kabalite warriors in venoms with trophys and extra cannon
