Hey all, wondering if anyone could give me pointers on making an eldar mostly jetbikes list. Haven't played my eldar but looking at the jetbikes kinda really draws me in. I'm thinking a big block of the basic bikes then maybe 2 squads of shining spears and 1 or 2 squads of shroud runners. Some farseer skyrunners and possibly a phenix lord or avatar to round it off? I think maybe jain zar and some banshees in a wave serpant. Maybe some fire dragon's? I'm also just not sure which craftworld works best. Sorry for the ramble I just have lots of ideas lol

So the weird thing with eldar bikes is they are mostly shooty which makes Alitoc, Biel Tan, and Uthwe strong choices.
If you skew towards melee Saim Han does help with that
If it were me I'd do something like this

Hey, I played Saim-han at Secret Santa with two units of shining spears they are fun and fast.
All the bike units are currently pretty good. Shroud runners are great, as small units to score BEL and screen out the mid board. A bigger unit of 5 is also a fun unit for battle focusing. Spears a unit of 5 is good with expert lancers, a unit of 3 is good with heartrstrike and the paragon sabre. For the wind riders, small unit with catapults are good or a max unit with cannons to get all the buffs and fire and fade.
