We can see from the empire pic that there could be bout 5 playable classes per race... least thats what im thinking. What do you think they are going to nail down as the eldar classes?

if they have warp spiders thats all i will ever play. but since the teleport mechanism is so vital to the warpspiders gameplay, and they would have to have it early on, or else its not really a warpspider (lol). seems unlikely to me, unless they have some way of continually expanding the teleporting effect (increased range, faster teleport, bonuses when you exit, etc.) to pick 5, farseer warlock banshee guardian/dire avenger and dark reaper.

Warlock, Dark Reaper, Swooping hawk, Striking Scorpion and maybe a Farseer.

Warlock being eith MDPS or heals (Though this would be more suited for a farseer, Farseers aren't exactly the most common Eldar)

Dark Reapers are pretty self explanitory.

Swooping Hawk - Mentioned these over spiders because they actually have to move instead of teleporting which might cause balancing issues, plus they are more versatile eg haywire blasters and grenade packs.

Striking Scorpions are the closest thing Eldar would have to a MEQ tank.

5th really seems an odd one, it could be anything really. A farseer would add alot though, fluff wise giving alot of buffs and class benefits.

For the record, warlock all the way baby.

It depends. TBH I wouldn't count on it, considering a farseer is the equivalent of Exarch, which is the equivalent of a Space Marine sergeant or captain.

It depends how the game balances. You can't have a bajillion Sergeants or Captains.

That said, Farseers and Warlocks are two different things, Warlocks are Eldar who have been an Aspect warrior at one point (Path of the Warrior) and are now walking the Path of the Seer to progress their psychic powers. Farseers are lost on the path of the Seer. There are other seers for the Path of the seer - EG spiritseer, bonesinger etc.
