Hello! My name is Rich. I've been playing 40k on and off since about '95. I have had a go at collecting a few different armies over the years. After my most recent hiatus I have returned with an eldar army and over the last few months I've been collecting, painting and playing some games to get reaquainted with the rules in 5th. While drafting out some new army lists last week I hit upon an interesting challenge: constructing a decently competative 1500 point list that will fit in a standard gw case. 1500 points just happens to be my favoured points value. It tends to create fast, flowing games. 1.5k lists are well balanced and require careful construction. So, to add a little spice to the proceedings I decided to fit this new list into my spare standard GW case. I have about 4000 points of eldar so to build a single case army i had to think about what would actually fit, as well as building something fun to use. So without further delay, here's the list:

Farseer - guide & doom, spirit stones
Autarch - death spinner, power weapon, mandiblasters, swooping hawk wings.

Howling banshees (6) - exarch, executioner, acrobatic, warshout
Fire dragons (6) - exarch, DB flamer

Dire avengers (10) - exarch, bladestorm
Wave serpent, EML, shuriken cannon, spirit stones
Pathfinders (6)
Jetbikes (4) - shuriken cannon

swooping hawks (5) - exarch, hawks talon. skyleap, intercept

Falcon - scatter laser, holofield, spirit stones
Falcon - scatter laser, holofield, spirit stones

1501 points.
And yes.... It fits like a glove into my case, including all bases, templates, dice and books needed to use the army in a game.
My first game went well. I played Andy, a Imperial Guard player. My superior speed and mobility proved too much and i won 6 kilpoints to 4.
