@ pokemongeek, yeah you're right - no webway-portal-bioforms: i checked up on webway portals and it turns out that none of the eldar (craftworld, dark, or exodite) actually have the ability to create webway portals (i thought at least craftworld eldar could create webway portals but not even them). webway portals were created by the old ones and every portal still in existence is of old one manufacture. with the importance the webway has to the eldar whenever another portal is discovered they fight tooth and nail to aquire it, hopefully preventing other species from attaining free access to the webway. and craftworld eldar webway-portals aren't made of wraithbone.

so yeah, scratch the tyranid webway-portal-bioform theory :)

while maybe more deserving than humans i would argue that the eldar deserve to be somewhat arrogant (although i'd argue that any species deserves to be arrogant as it's a fairly childlike/immature attitude): their psychicness and the creation of their gods were all the result of the old ones - the old ones built the eldar from the ground up as well as breaking the warp which allowed any god-like entities to form. if anything their arrogance is somewhat baseless as it makes them seem as though they're taking the credit for what the old ones did.
