Eldar - a foray into 40k

[Tom Loyn]

Issue with wraithlords is that if you take a weapon of the same type it automatically becomes twin-linked rather than adding another weapon :( reason for scatter laser/starcannon combo is so each one pumps out 6 S6 shots to bring down vehicles at range and those pesky airforces I'm sure we'll start seeing!

Just digging through deeper into the back of my 40k cupboard. Found a large chaos marine army and my guard, where are the Eldar!?

Definitely want to buy some harlequins though, cool models and fluff!

They are part brilliant and part rubbish. They can tear up lots of stuff if they get in but some enemies just knock them off before they get there or are too good at absorbing their damage. I did enjoy running 20 of them on occasion though ;)

I agree with Jimbo as always - if dire avengers get into combat, they'll die to anything. Give the exarch double shuriken catapults instead.

I found them very useful in the doubles. Fortune them up and a 5+ re-rollable invun is a pretty nice anvil.

Found my guard, where are the Eldar!?

its fate: no xenos filth, you MUST do the glorious guard!

That's what I thought, and bladestorm can make overmatch fire quite tasty too!

Yes I should Hale! But I've found ALL my guard so loadsa tanks, screw the fact they're less good in 6th, they're cool!!

Also, aside from necros, a lot of people will find it tricky to even glance armour 14 :)

Gonna wheel out the punisher filth at some point!

how you looking infantrywise?

3 platoons of 3 squads and command squad. A few stormtrooper squads. Some heavy weapons teams too.  Command HQ and also some forgeworld death korps (make good vets...ze SS), more than I remember!
