I'm having a semi-competitive match in a couple of weeks and I want a great Eldar list that is well balanced and competitive.

I wrote up this list and I'm looking for some feedback. Thanks!

Eldar CAD (351 points)
* Farseer on Jetbike with Singing Spear and Spirit Stone of Anath'lan [Warlord]
* 4x Windriders with Scatter Lasers
* 4x Windriders with Scatter Lasers

Eldar Craftworld Warhost
Guardian Battlehost (600 points)
* Farseer on Jetbike with Singing Spear
* 3x Vauls Wrath with Shadow Weavers
* 1x Vyper with 2x Shuriken Cannon and Ghostwalk Matrix
* 1x War Walker with 2x Scatter Laser
* 3 Guardian Squads of 10, with a free Anti-Grav Scatter Laser Support

Aspect Shrine (+1 BS upgrade) (545 points)
* 4x Dark Reaper, 1x Exarch, all upgraded with Starshot missiles
* 4x Fire Dragons, 1x Exarch, with a dedicated transport Wave Serpent with Scatter Laser and Shuriken Cannon, and Holo-Fields
* 4x Warp Dragons, 1x Exarch, no upgrades

Comes to a total of 1496 points. Do you guys think this will do OK? Doing a 2v2 with a Deathwatch player, against two Tyrannids/Genestealer Cults players (will almost surely go against two flying hive tyrants)!

The basic idea is that the two farseers will join the Windrider squads, ride out to steal objectives and use scatter lasers to kill stuff, while the guardians hold a gun line and hold objectives while hopefully scoring some decent kills. Dark Reapers are there to hopefully put a few wounds on the Flyrants and Fire Dragons are there to deal with any armour that might show up.

All feedback and criticism warmly welcomed!

CADs are generally better than Battelhosts, yeilding ObSec Scatbikes. Then you can toss the weak sauce of the vyper.

Stone of Anath: a little over much for just a farseer. I feel having one for a full seer council works.

Otherwise, looks okay. Nothing earth shattering.

No need for a Warhost formation. Two CAD will do the job just fine.

Fire dragons without a transport aren't going to do anything. Reapers are just nice (they are good against other bikes) and warp spiders are top tier but they are just one squad.

If you are to go against two flyrants at 1500 points then you are going to have a lot of trouble winning without dedicated anti air. Flyrants cant be ignored and they will dish out enough shots to kill your bikes. You need a crimson hunter or two to get the job done.

Also competitive eldar = wraithknights >0 so you must also fix that

All I can say about painting is that VMC tastes much better than VMA... especially black...
