Been debating on what to add to my new eldar army, here is my list so far:

1 Farseer w/ singing spear

5 Wrathguard w/ wrathcannons

5 Warp Spiders

1 Vyper

1 Wrath Lord w/ ghost glaive & shuriken cannon

18 Guardians w/ bright lance heavy weapons platform

1 Wave serpent w/ twin linked bright lance

(Edit) 5 Dire Avengers

Suggestions?

Get more dire avengers and some rangers

Not sure about the Rangers, but getting more DA is surely worth it. Take Exarch with Shimmershield. You will not regret it.

A Warlock or two to hang with the Guardians (GW sells a really good set with Farseer and three Warlocks).

So there are the Troops and HQ pretty much covered.
But where does the heavy fire come from?
Vypers or War Walkers? Both are good and can give you impressive firepower. Single maxed out squad of three will either give you some AT or make the enemy Elites pay.

Wraithlord is also a pretty solid firepower platform. People ususally give him BL's, but I field one with Shuriken Cannon and it works just fine!

What else to buy? Spiritseer is great, making that Wraithguard scoring. Another Wave Serpent to them (if DA goes to the first with Farseer) would be great, altough not necessary.

Oh, and what Craftworld do you play?

Thanks for those suggestions, as far as what Craftworld I play, I kinda just made my own paint scheme, ut if it happens to fit a craftworld color scheme then yay. White helmets, kantor blue with dry brushing Macragge blue for the armor, calgar blue lining, Lothern blue for any stones on the model. (although any stones on the white are colored sycorax bronze) Sound like a craftworld already made? Hard to see for me since the eldar codex doesnt have a craftworld color scheme section like the SM codex does.

Hmm, first question 18 guardains with shurkin catapults you mean in op?

I would reccomend buying 1 guardian jetbike and converting him into a jetseer.

ALso get 2 more vypers and either go double shurkin cannons or scatter laser and shurkin cannon for the most bang with your buck.

Also war walkers with duel BLs are great AT, and crimson hunters and never a bad idea.

No one has said yet and i wonder why, but wave serpent NEEDS tl scatter lasers, so trade them out as soon as possible. good buys so far though i would say
