*up to shuriken cannon. - 10
*up to Scatter laser. - 10
*Holo-fields. -15

501
Can you take a look and tell me if it is ok for a starter list? The ideal is to play fast and hard, my 1000 point list will be something like this. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6843388.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6843388.page GMT Coming back to Eldar
As for the list, looks good, except the autarch who doesn't need the death spinner, because his jetbike already has TL shurkin catapults and the fact the power blades are 2 power weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6843580.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6843580.page GMT Re:Coming back to Eldar
Balance out the two bike squads, to 4 members each and move a cannon upgrade from the Falcon to the squad without a cannon currently - you lose out on the opertunity to twin-link the cannon but this allows the Falcon to move at full pace and keep well away from the enemy.

Of course, that depends on how you're expanding the list later, you might not want to model those changes and then have to change them later.

Welcome to Dakka!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6843749.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6843749.page GMT Re:Coming back to Eldar - As said above, the autarch's death spinner is a little out of place as the jetbike already gives him twin linked catapults.
- Autarchs cannot take power blades. they can however take a single power weapon.
- Falcons are okay, but there's always something better. You're not even using its transport capacity for this game and you've taken mixed role weapons on it as well.
- jetbikes should be taken in multiples of 3 to maximize their efficiency with cannons.
- You should always try to stay below the points limit rather than going one point above. It is, after all, a limit and not an approximate goal.

I've tweaked the list a little while maintaining your "fast" theme. This is what I came up with:
Spoiler:
Autarch - Jetbike, Power Weapon

6 Jetbikes - 2 Cannons

3 Jetbikes

Vyper - Bright Lance, Cannon, Holo Fields

Night Spinner - Cannon, Holo-Fields
498 points

- The Autarch can be modified to whatever role you want him to play. Fusion gun/Scorpion Chainsword for anti-tank, Reaper Launcher if you want him to hang out with the jetbikes and take pot shots with their cannons, laser lance if you want him to break off and assault things. That's all preference.

- I traded the Falcon for a Night Spinner to save points and because they are VERY good in 500 point games. They can also turn into a Fire Prism (same kit) when you make your 1000 point list down the road.

- Since I swapped out the Falcon I threw a bright lance on the vyper for anti-tank (it's more reliable than a pulse laser against higher AV anyways, and the night spinner/all your cannons can take out AV12 or less).

i picked up an Eldar army from a friend of mine. i have every modal in the list except for:

Phoenix Lords
Harlequins
Swooping Hawks
Warp Spiders
Any Flyers
Night Spinner
Wraithknight

it was easier to put what i don't have then what i do have. it is about 6000 points. I will like to do a fast and hard-hitting armies. i have been out of the game since 2nd, so i have to play catch up. i will change my list but i dont't have a Night Spinner do you think a Fire Prism will work instead?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846283.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846283.page GMT Coming back to Eldar http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846441.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846441.page GMT Re:Coming back to Eldar http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846464.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846464.page GMT Coming back to Eldar http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846492.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846492.page GMT Re:Coming back to Eldar http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846508.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/595743/6846508.page GMT Coming back to Eldar
Hq- Autarch with hawk wings, fusion gun, banshee mas, scorpion chainsword-103

Troops-jetbikes *2-102

Fast-spiders (5)*2-190
Fast-hawks with exarch(6)-106

This list comes to 501 exactly, if you need it to be below 500, drop the chainsword for a total of 498.

For 1k you can expand this 500pt list or make something different.
