Hello everyone,

Merry Christmas to all, just wanted to run by a Eldar list I have been thinking of possibly running.

Idea is for reapers + seer/lock take 1 serpent, and avengers and seer take 2nd serpent, rangers sit on objectives, and fire prisms shoot off at back of the board.

Appreciate any thoughts

You have two ghost helm of alishazers when this is an ulthwe only relic in an alaitoc detachment. You may not have duplicates even if the relic is allowed.

You only get one free relic per army and then for craftworld would pay 1cp for one additional, or 3 cp for 2 additional

Woops sorry, have edited

I suggest promoting the Warlock to a Spiritseer, for more wounds or tossing entirely. His Smite sucks and the hemlocks ought to have Jinx and one of the other lesser, but situational powers leaving him with ... +1 to Cover save? Meh. I really just see warlocks now as easy targets for Eliminators and other character snipers in the game.

For a relic, maybe Faolchu's Wing instead of the others? Get some mobility to where Mind War can be used with the Hemlock's Mindshock Pod. Or Jetseers? I know it hurts to pay so much for a new blister pack Skyrunner. Tossing the warlock altogether to upgrade the farseers to flying motorcycles is good too. Another wound, 20" move, T4. I highly recommend jetbikes. Hunting a guardian jetbike on ebay is a cheap alternative, just putting an exarch's torso on top. I've been fielding that model, with a starglaive as its singing spear for several editions.

Except for footer HQs and the weakling warlock, you're reasonably solid.
