	10 Fire Dragons (Exarch w/ Firepike, Crack Shot), Fuegan the Burning Lance, an Autarch (Fusion gun, mandiblasters, gay power weapon), all riding a Wave Serpent with twin scatters and the shuriken cannon upgrade. This is all the napalm you need to turn tanks, dreads, terminators and carnifexes into little Cambodian villager girls. Remember you can allocate wounds to Fuegan pretty fearlessly with his FNP roll and 2+ armor save :3 :3 :3 615 points. Okay, fine, you don't want to blow that many pesos and both HQ slots in one unit. I understand. If you leave Fuegan out, remember to give the Exarch Tank Hunters to compensate - if for some reason you don't think 10 melta shots can't get the job done.		10 Fire Dragons (Exarch w/ Firepike, Crack Shot), Fuegan the Burning Lance, an Autarch (Fusion gun, mandiblasters, gay power weapon), all riding a Wave Serpent with twin scatters and the shuriken cannon upgrade.

	70 Points stock. An Autarch is an Eldar that tried out a few different warrior aspects and decided to [[Blood_Ravens#Blood_Magpies\|just grab his favorite guns from each one]]. He's also supposedly a super-genius on par with Andrew "Ender" Wiggin which translates into him letting your reinforcements show up faster. Honestly though, his "tactical brilliance" is considerably less impressive than the orders rules that the Imperial Guard get. Yes, that's right, our centuries old tactical ~~geniuses~~ are worse at leading than a twenty-something mon-keigh. Ah well. Autarchs are essential to "reserves-style" army lists which count on getting lots of guys on the table reserves quickly.		70 Points stock.

Yes, that's right, our centuries old tactical genii are worse at leading than a twenty-something mon-keigh. Ah well. Autarchs are essential to "reserves-style" army lists which count on getting lots of guys on the table reserves quickly.

	An Autarch is basically built by picking four or five pieces of Aspect Warrior gear and sticking them on the same guy. They come stock with two grenades, a pistol, 3+ armor and a 4+ invulnerable save. The Autarch is characteristically fragile, and should not be relied on to run around on his own and score touchdowns. He will, however, bring a whole lot of extra stink to whatever squad of Aspect Warriors you stick him with. I like making him an honorary Warp Spider with a fusion gun, a banshee mask, and a scorpion chainsword for Strength 4 beatings. He can also be the thing you need to make Swooping Hawks a little less crap.		An Autarch is basically built by picking four or five pieces of Aspect Warrior gear and sticking them on the same guy.

	Avatar with 2 Wraithlords (Brightlance, Scatter, 2 Flamers each). When you get tired of shadowboxing and cartwheeling around, consider the heavy metal approach. These guys will lumber around the table doing wrestling moves and farting lasers until the enemy hammers them to death. I realize not everyone is into shooting Brightlances at Ballistic Skill 4 the way I am, that's cool. Don't skip out on one of the Eldar Army's only flamer mounts. Bear in mind that these guys aren't really a 'unit' and are free to run in all directions, fire at different stuff, and so forth. 455 points of pants-shitting fun.

	225 points. This individual is just mean spirited. Maybe being lost on an alien world for thousands of years makes you develop a certain disdain for anything with a 2+ save. His list of special rules runs as long as my arm. The only stat he has that is below a "4" is his wounds (3), and anything that is not 4, is 7. Tough as a space marine, faster then a space marine, better armed then a space marine. His special weapon not only is a three shot version of the exarch weapon, but he decided to stick a power weapon on the end of it. His Holosuit gives him a 4++ save outside of 12 inches, and 5+ inside of 12 inches. He has both exarch powers, is fearless, fleet, and eternal warrior. You may be thinking "but hey! all exarchs have something special about them, a special weapon or power! Where is this guy's wooge?". Please observe the special rules for his Spear of Starlight. He can combine it with a ghostlight, making it BS7, re-rollable, and heavy 3. What a dick.~~{{Citation needed\|reason=Don't see any rules that would make ghostlight Heavy 3}}~~		225 points.
