i am looking at ideas for a friend who, after 8 years, is getting back into the hobby. he spoke to some guys at a FLGS, and they proposed this... let me know what you think
HQ
Spiritseer
Troops
5x Wraithguard
---Wave Serpent w/ TL scatterlasers and holofield
5x Wraithguard, with D-scythes
---Wave Serpent w/ TL scatterlasers and holofield
5x Wraithblade
---Wave Serpent w/ TL scatterlasers and holofield
5x Wraithblade
---Wave Serpent w/ TL scatterlasers and holofield
Fast Attack
Crimson Hunter
Heavy Support
Wraithknight, heavy wraithcannons, 2x Shuriken cannons
the only issue i have with it is getting the blades up close, without putting the serpents in harms way.... but could i come in at a 45 angle, pivot, drop from the back, the speed away in the shooting?

He has many great ambitions, and the noblest of intentions, but I know that above all else, He is determined to stand firm against the rise of Chaos. He has always known the truth of it. The overthrow of the Primordial Annihilator is His greatest wish. So what I do, autarch, from this moment on, I will do for the Emperor." -Alpharius, Primarch of the Alpha Legion.

Executing Exarch

The wraithblades are garbage in serpents, and really need to be in squads of 10 on foot to be viable. Axes and forceshields 10 strong with a spiritseer or two for support are amazing. You can still take a serpent for the squad even if they can't ride in it.
The wraithknight does not need any other guns, spend the points on something else, like another seer.
Make sure your friend uses the iyanden supplement to make the wraithknight a warlord and have access to better warlord traits, psychic powers and some cool wargear!

The most important rule of 40K-Page XVII of the 6th edition rulebook, the figure at the top right of the page. "Shake hands with your opponent and thank them for a good battle and fun experience." Then go out for a beer.
 Shine bright like Iyanden |

My honest opinion is change the Wb to WG give the 2 cannons from WK to the 4 serpents (same amount of points).

Bush? No, Eldar Ranger

If he combines the two wraithblade teams into a ten man force, like Dr. Serling suggested, he'd lose a Wave serpent. IMO that's fine. then the points could be put into cannons on the other serpents, another SpiritSeer to join the blade blob, and if he plays Iyanden he could also snag a WraithForge Stone.

I just hate WB because how slow and bad at CC they are, though T6 is pretty snazzy but no farseer for fortune.
