sneaky and speedy are the core elements of any eldar army and these guys from what i know of can effectively "phase" in shoot up the place and then vanish like ghosts.
That's some nice conversions there mate, making them out of bitz that are just hanging around with Guardian bodies is a great idea. Never used them myself, so let us know how you get on with them. I think the best FG release recently is the Hornets, not the model itself, as I am not a big fan, but I am thinking that flanking them in like a squadron of Walkers would be great, and you have the fast moving ability that Walkers lack. I might proxy my Vypers as Hornets one day for some fun
As I play Biel Tan aspect warriors are my thing and I bought a squad of Spectres off Forgeworld the week they were released. I dont tailor my list so their performance varies greatly game to game depending on my opponent. Their biggest issue I find is they have no problems penetrating but then it really comes down to a lucky die roll if they manage to do any serious damage, most often I expect them to suppress a vehicle rather than destroy it. The models are gorgeous and worth buying just 4 that
@originalAoitora tks for the great comment, I like your views on the specters! I agree they are great sculpts and I'm very tempted in picking them up. tks again
@Catattafish I need to get down to southern Ontario some time for a game :) I don't think they would be too hard to deal with alone but worked into an ok list they may work well. we'll see =)

@ChaplainVarnus555 tks! the idea of heavy weapons on the move works well with my fast moving lists.

Never played Eldar, nor played it! I would be completely lost in trying to strategize against them :)
