I currently collect Orks and Eldar (mostly iyanden), and I have been considering running a game where I mix things up by running one as the allies of the other.

My Orks are generally Kanz, Dread, warbikes, boyz in trukks, mek gunz...

So I had considered adding a unit of Wraithguard in a wave serpent as a troops choice (with spiritseer) as a sort of Eldar version of a MANz missile.

Or maybe run a mini jetbike council, as a sort of counterpoint to my warbike squad. One unit of bikes with FNP and a Lucky Stikk warboss, one with a farseer and warlocks with their psychic shenanigans.

Not sure what would really help with the ork lists I run. Just thought I would float the idea and see what the good people of dakka thought.

The eldar I have are - farseer + warlocks on foot, jetbikes (some converted to seer council), rangers, guardians, two wave serpents. Also dire avengers and banshees and fire dragons, but I'm not sure these are worth it vs tankbustas and lootas. (I dont have any busta or loota models yet but they are potentially on my to-do list).

Unfortunately I realised that using warlocks and farseer to improve the Orks psychic potential is an iffy idea, as the powers like fortune and guide can't be used on the ork units as they are desperate allies.

They would add dice to the charge pool for relatively cheap though.
