Hi I'm starting a new Eldar army and I was wondering if this this sounds good for 1850 points

(WL) Spiritseer

2x Shuriken Cannon

It's 1856 points but it's a start what do people think?

Looks good, but drop the SC from the 3 man units, with points left you can give your seer a goodie.

Do those wave serpents have scatter lasers?

- While Vectored engines are pretty handy for dropping off crew and then pivoting to hide your rear armour, you may consider dropping them in favor of Shuriken Cannons.
- The Wave serpents need Scatter Lasers on them. This will allow the serpent to fire:
4 S6 AP6 Twin Linked (scatter laser)
3 S6 AP5 Twin Linked (Cannon, TL from laser lock)
D6+1 S7 AP- Ignores cover (Shield, TL from laser lock)
each turn. Which is an insane amount of firepower.
- The second Crimson hunter is a bit overkill. I'd say drop it in favor of more bodies somewhere.
- You might consider getting an Autarch with a Mantle and Jetbike. His reserves manipulation will pretty much ensure that your flyer arrives exactly when you want it to (either ASAP, or immediately after enemy flyers enter the board).
- You might also consider making the Wraithknight your Warlord. This would be even more effective if one of your spiritseers was given a wraithforge stone.

Thanks for the tips I will def drop vector engines for scatter laser I can't believe I missed that one.
I don't really won't my WK as my WL as I think they are targeted enough as it is and I don't won't to give an easy(ish) VP to my opponent!

This is true, wraithknight are already #1 priority for most opponents, making in the war lord just gives them more reason to shoot it.
