				<title>new to the [craft]world of eldar, 1000 pnt list</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hey all.  Here's the deal.  I'm currently a Tau player, but I would like to switch to Eldar.  This is partially for game play reasons, partially for fluff reasons, partially for aesthetic reasons, and probably a few other reasons as well.  That being said, I don't own any Eldar, and I have never played against Eldar before.<br /> <br /> I've put this list together, partially to set myself up for what to begin buying, before expanding past the 1000 pnt range.<br /> <br /> Any critique is most welcomed <img src="/s/i/a/baf5f2e54c6b17d5c5d39aecadfa1272.gif" border="0"><br /> <br /> <br /> <u><b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span> </b><i>120pts</i></u><br /> Farseer<br />      - Doom<br />      - Mind War<br />      - Spirit Stones<br /> <br /> <u><b>Elites </b> <i>176pnts</i></u><br /> 9 Howling Banshees<br />      - Exarch<br />           - Acrobatic<br />           - War Shout<br />           - Mirrorswords<br /> <br /> <u><b>Troops </b> <i>542pts</i></u><br /> 9 Dire Avengers (165pts)<br />      - Exarch<br />           - Defend<br />           - Bladestorm<br />           - Power Weapon + Shimmershield<br /> <br /> 11 Guardians (185pts)<br />      - Shuriken Cannon<br />      - Wave Serpent<br />           -<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(126);'>TL</span> Shuriken Cannons<br /> <br /> 8 Rangers (192)<br />      -Pathfinders<br /> <br /> <u><b>Heavy Support</b> <i>160pts</i></u><br /> Fire Prism<br />      - Holo-Field<br />      - Shuriken Cannon<br /> _________________________________________<br /> <b>Total:</b> <i>998pts</i><br /> <br /> <br /> Not sure if people do this much, but my plan is to run the Farseer with the banshees.  I would use Doom during a turn in which I plan on assault any particular unit.<br /> <br /> I would use the fire prism to target heavy infantry or other vehicles.  If not that, then I would use it to reduce units with large numbers of models (orks/tyranids) then use the banshees to finish off the unit.<br /> <br /> Pathfinders should be great against <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(95);'>MEQs</span>, along with added support vs hordes.<br /> They should also serve as decent objective holders, although not if likely to get assaulted.<br /> <br /> The dire avengers will be my main objective holders, and the shimmershield should help with that.  I would try to use the guardians in the waveserpent to take any last minute objectives, or at least to put objectives in conflict.<br /> <br /> Thoughts?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Well, I'd give the Dire Avengers a transport and take the Guardian Defenders as ground troops (without a transport).<br /> Footslogging Banshees die easily.<br /> I'd prefer two naked Prisms instead of one that is tooled up. <img src="/s/i/a/baf5f2e54c6b17d5c5d39aecadfa1272.gif" border="0">]]></description>
