Recently, I've been playing my Shining Spear star pure Eldar and I feel it's time for a change. So I'm taking out my Hellion-based space pirate list.

Eldar primary:

HQ:

Farseer: Eldar jetbike, Singing Spear - 120

Warlock - 35


Troops:

3 Windrider jetbikes - 51

9 Dire Avengers - 117
- Wave Serpent: Shuriken Cannon, Scatterlasers - 130

20 Defender Guardians: 2 Scatterlaser platforms - 220


Fast Attack:

6 Swooping Hawks: Exarch - 106

8 Warp Spiders - 152


Heavy Support:

Wraithknight - 240


Total: 1171


Dark Eldar secondary:

HQ:

Baron Sathonyx - 105


Troops:

5 Warriors: Blaster - 60
- Venom: Extra Splinter Cannon, Grisly Trophies - 70

14 Hellions - 224


Heavy Support

Ravager: 3 Disintegrator Cannons, Nightshields, Grisly Trophies - 120


Total: 579


The list has obscene amounts of shooting, but struggles somewhat against AV13+ spam, is very fast and quite durable. I would most likely not fare well against multiple TFC or the like, but on the other hand I am quite capable of taking out entrenched gunline armies and the only army I would probably really struggle against is pure Venom spam. Can the list be improved in a certain way, what do you think, dakka? Let me know!

Since you struggle against av13+ swap the ravager guns to dark lances. The rest is good.
