My friend and I finished class for the day and headed to play I think our 20th Eldar vs CSM game.

We are playing 2k GT style games in an attempt to get ready for one this summer. I brought a standard mechdar list with wraithlords, while he brought a new list lacking the usual 9 obliderators.

Mission: 3 Objectives , Dawn of War.

Eldar:

Farseer - Doom , Runes of Warding and witnessing

6 Wave Serpents - Scatter Lazer

3X5 Firedragons
3X10 Storm Guardians
3 Warlocks all with destructor
6 Jetbikes 2X Cannons

3 Wraithlords , 3x EML 3x Scatter Lazerz.



CSM:

2 Princes Mark/Lash

4X10 squads of CSM with 2 meltas
2X5 Nouse Marines
6 Rhinos with Combi's
2 Defilers with Lascannons



The 3 Objetives are the rock Formations farthest on the outside , and in the middle.

Eldar Turn 1:

I deploy off the board edge because dawn of war, I then tubro boost my left flank. Mabe Ill get lucky and be able to take down an ill placed defilers/prince turn 2.

I deploy heavy left with jetbikes on the left with 3 fire dragons in the middle. Im going to contest far right with 1 guardian squad behind cover, while using wraithlords to contest middle, then 5 infantry squads and jetbikes to take left (or right assuming hes heavy left).




CSM Turn 1:

He deploys defilers and a prince on each flank. 2 squads to my left , 4 squads to my right. Im going to take my left flank in force.

He shoots a lascannon at a wave serpent and stuns it leaving it out in the open



Eldar Turn 2:

I open fire with 9 Scatter Lasers and 3 EML's. Im able to destroy a Rhino to my right, Imobilize the red Rhino in the middle whos popped smoke. I also Imobolize the 2 Rhino's on my left. A Huge turn for me taking out 4 of his transports making his marines walk.




CSM Turn 2:

He gets out and walks and not alot happens.



Eldar Turn 3:

I set my trap and put 5 of my squads to 1 of his and an HQ. My Guardians open up on the marines and whipe them out with the jetbikes. 1 Squad of fire dragons takes out the Demon Price who has taken a wound from a failed lash attempt. My 2 other Fire Dragon squads then take out the last few marines.

Im also able to take the demo cannon off defiler on my right.

Huge turn for me, I take out my opponents entire left flank making it hard for him to contest that objective, if he wants to he will have to pull from middle which already is overloaded by 3 wraithlords.




CSM Turn 3:

Some failed shooting, He moves the defiler on my left towards the objective and assults some fire dragons with Melta Grenades.

Eldar Turn 4:

I move my wraithlords up and take the middle objective, I also whipe out a squad to my middle. 10 Firedragons get into Close Combat with the Defiler on the left, while 5 other fire dragons destroy the last rhino in the middle Pinning the squad inside. I shoot and kill a few marines.



CSM Turn 4:

not much happens.

Eldar Turn 5:


Eldar Turn 6/7:

Im able to destroy the defiler on my left in close combat. My middle objective is held by troops and a wraithlord that whiped all units off.
My Right objective is held by troops, and the 2 wraithlords took out the Prince and remaining squad.

Eldar Objectives Held:3
CSM Objectives Held:0 , with 1 defiler and a few rhinos left.




Overall it was a pretty easy game. My first turn of shooting made the game easy, as well as enemy forces being separated with no support. I like this eldar List more and more. It feels like the wraithlords do ALOT and keep my list mobile.

-Thanks for reading, and look for more Batreps in the future.

Im glad to see that you have made a grate army list with a working plan. I also love the color sceam of your army mine is painted simaler to yours. It is based with a coating of white and then over that a coating of hawk Turquoise with Iyanden Dark sun as detailing along with some Chaos black. All and all im glad to see this post because i have two friends who play chaos one just coming into it another who has been playing them for a while so this will be a huge help to me.

good battle report, looking forward to the next one.
