According to a guy from warseer whi already has IMperial Armour 11 - The Doom of Mymeara this is the Eldar Corsair lists TO&E:

Quote:
The Farseer special character 'Bel-Annath' has a pretty nifty witchblade that can unleash a ap2 template attack once per game and alters the force organisation chart to allow more Heavy support at the expence of elites

The Corsair army is interesting with the option for most of the army to have Jet packs

HQ
Corsair Prince- lots of options, including nightfight, deep strike and orbital bombardment shinanigans
Corsair Blade Sworn Retinue- the Prince's best mates, nice CC unit
Corsair Void Dreamer- Psyker, can use either a destructive, defencive or LD enhancing power each turn

Elites
Voidstorm squad- Veteran CC unit, good source of melta bombs but fragile
Harlequin troupe- nothing new here
Eldar craftworld outcasts- single fast attack or elite unit taking from the Eldar codex
Dark Eldar Kabalite Warriors

Troops
Corsair squad- can be given Falcon or Venom as a transport
Wasp assault squadron- cannot excede number of corsair squads in the army
Jetbike squadron- scouts and can give leader a powersword/ fusion pistol

Fast Attack
Hornet Squadron
Nightwing interceptor
Night Spinner

Heavy support

Phoenix Bomber
Warp Hunter
Fire Storm

That could be the basis of a very interesting epic list.

Small update: Blade Sworn Retinue and Corsair Squads can take Jumppacks OR a transport vehicle.

The lack of vypers is confusing given they have venoms and jetbikes. I mean, I get the fact that they have hornets instead, but I don't see why they can't have both. Of course, that list is probably incomplete, since it should also include those jumpjet equipped war walkers that forgeworld released a while ago.

Those jetpack scout walkers will be interesting in epic.

The "jumpjet equipped war walkers " ARE the "jetpack scout walkers".

Seems to me it would play a lot like Saim Hann, just with fewer actual bikes and more mounted infantry.
