Eldar or DaemonHunters?

I wasn't sure whether to put this in here or Army Lists. Move if needed.

I have finished my Dark Angels Army (Still unpainted) and am wondering what army to do now.

It's a choice between Eldar and DaemonHunters.

Eldar:

Advantages:
I used to play them.... Know how to use them
Aspect warriors are good at what they do.
All round awesomeness

Disadvantages:
Models are a bit expensive
A bit weak (defence wise)
A bit confusing to use


DaemonHunters:

Advantages:
Really really strong
I get them half price cause a former DH player stopped playing them.
DAEMONHOSTS and VINDICARE ASSASINS

Disadvantages:
High point costs => Low numbers




Which Should I do?

I have a couple of possible Army lists for both. I'll post them up in the army lists section and put links to them here. Maybe tomorrow.

Eldar all day. You have a ton of different ways to confront the battlefield with Eldar. And the new Eldar are damn good, contrary to popular opinion! I haven't lost with them yet, of course I've only ever lost twice in a decade with Eldar...
I digress, You can do anything with the Eldar army as you can with DH and more, i.e. psychics, hard-hitting troops, and wargear that actually does things. From long range murdering, to obliterating psychics, to flying circuses of harlies and aspects.. Mechanized wings, speeder armies, stealth attacks. Yeah..
One of the few armies that can be made to dominate the enemy long range by turn 2, or eviscerate them in bloody hand to hand by the same turn. Long, grinding missions are not their strongpoint unless you have plenty of cover.

BLOOD RUNS, ANGER RISES, DEATH WAKES, WAR CALLS!
