Main strength of the eldars are their mobility combined to a synergic firepower.

In Maelstrom of War games, those are a tremendous advantage to fulfill the right objective at the right time. That's why they are so feared in that particular point of view.

The fact they can easily have Objective Secured and highly mobile troops is also helping a lot (I'm also looking at you, jetbike guardians). The codex is just too good in V7, that's all. They need to have a true "V7" one, like the others...but we know it won't happen soon.

Can Serpent Spam adequately deal with Serpent Spam?

Sure, it depends on which one will push on the big red button first.

But seriously, Eldars have very good units in their codex (and quite obvious to see and exploit, honestly). Making them more "V7-like" would be quite easy, though. Just a few fixes here and there - and putting these damn jetbikes where they should never have left in Fast Attack choices. Same for marine bikers, by the way, but that's another debate.

After all, since now all units can take an Objective, there is no reason to give that precious Troop status to units that were never troops in the beginning.
