I've been playing with a lot of variations of this list but the core remains mostly the same. The theme is jetbikes, 2 war walkers, and a wave serpent. Here is the list and I will follow it with some questions.

HQ
Farseer Skyrunner, spirit stone 130

Troops
4 Windriders, SL 108
4 Windriders, SL 108
5 Dire Avengers, WS +holo, TL cannon, TL SL 205

Fast
Vyper, EML 55

Heavy
War Walker, 2 BL
War Walker, 2 BL

Some variations of this include dropping the vyper and dire avengers to put fire dragons in the serpent. But I'm thinking the war walkers and vyper should take care of any armor or high toughness threats at this point level. The decision I'm mostly torn with is running 2 war walkers or 1 wraithlord. I'm new to eldar and most of what I read about the wraithlord is not good. Which is too bad because I love the model. I do get more shots out of the walkers, but the wraithlord doesn't seem bad at low points. Any thoughts you have on the list and my variations are appreciated.

If you did not want friends then you should have fit a WK in at 750pts.

If you don't want friends, more scatbikes, people love to complain about scatbikes, and for good reason.

The WS could be replaced by a falcon w/Blances, or starcannon to kill AP2. Drop the DA, and take 2 single units of war walkers, one with Scatlasers, one with Blances. You now have more effective str6 spam, and more effective vehicle killing on an arguably tougher platform.

I love wraithlords, they suck, but I love them. With no invuln they completely rely on toughness to absorb punishment, and while T8 makes them highly resilient to say, dark reapers with starswarm, the same guys with starshot will poop on a WL. Grav-spam is super common and kills WLs. Hell Meltaguns will pretty much wreck everything even. If you want a tough MC at lower points than a WK, take the Avatar, he's a beast in melee, which is lacking in your list, and he has an invuln so he doesn't just get pooped on by rockets and grav. He is wounded on 2s by str8 instead of 4s for the Lord, but against str9 they're almost the same, and the avatar is immune to melta, which is what alot of lists carry as their str8 weapons which is nice.

I would take this list with just the bikes and the farseer then 2 crimson hunters. It will rock.

Except flyers at 750 is lame:p
