The time has come to add wraithguard to my count as eldar army. But, alas, I very much dislike the eggplat heads from GW. Can somebody point me to an alternative model, I was thinking about using GKs termies, I love those guys but they are expensive and too imperial to mix smoothly with the rest of the army, I need some military looking alternatives.

FWIW, in lieu of Wraithguard, you're probably better off fielding twice as many Scorpions.

I bought 10 of the epic revenant titans to use as wraithguard.

Tried to price wraithguard on USGW online store...not there?

Weird.

Anyway, if it's the 2 for 30 epic revenant titans, then he
actually spent less than the price per model of wraithguard.

Wasn't sure. I haven't been able to pull up a price on the GW site.

I don't know, 150 bills for 10 models still seems a little steep for me. But then again I've eaten nothing but cup o' noodles for the past 3 months. Ah collage.

You could go all literal, mix skeleton parts with guardians, add some green stuff and call them literal wraiths, undead Space Elfs sustained by the unholy power of a mightly warlock.

How would Guardian bodies fit atop of Necron Wraiths? That
might be an interesting conversion.

Depends on your counts as theme, but I've wanted to make a counts as Iyanden army out of Circle Orboros models for some time. Figure these woldwyrd models would look great ...
