These jetbikes are great in the new rules. With a higher toughnes and armor save they can last a little longer than most eldar troops. The mobility of the jetbikes make them great at keeping the enemy on their toes not knowing where you are going to go next.

Eldar Autarch on Jetbike
This guy almost won me a painting competition over at Fritz's Saim-hann blogsite. I love the new autarch rules. I built this guy before the new autarch model was available. The reaper launcher is magnetized under the wing, and can be replaced with a fusion gun, or just removed. The body is from Baharroth, and so are the wings. I just cut the wings apart and glued them directly on top of the jetbike wings. I used a dremel to remove Baharoth's arms, head and legs. I liked the hawk motif on his chestplate and painted it onto the jetbike canopy. The scenic base is actually a part of a dog chew toy which looked rather eldarish. He has another back banner which needs to be fixed.
I love this guys 6 strength six power weapon attacks on the charge. I usually put him with my shining spears to get the added bonus of hit and run. I usually don't add the reaper launcher, but want to give it a try soon.
