Added another unit of Dire Avengers to purchased list.

I'm hoping to do some priming tonight. So maybe some pic tomorrow. Wraitknight, 3 War Walkers and Crimson Hunter are built. I'm going try something different with the Crimson Hunter. I don't want it to look identical to the last one.

You will be the master of your own craftworld very soon at this rate!

It's just something for yellowbeard to play.

Not much Eldar work since I started on the Orks.




Last game I played against the Elder I faced an Unbound Wraithhost list. It was YB and Git with 4 Imperial Knight s against a CSM and a Necron Decurion. Least to say we were snuffed out pretty quickly.
Since YB and I share an Eldar Army ( we are using the same craftworld theme so we can both pull from each other’s models ) I was looking at the units that were left over and wondered if I could put together an interesting list with what remained.

Just so happens that I had plenty of bikes and unfinished pieces to put a list together. Again this list wasn’t built for optimization but only on what I had available.

Farseer on bike w 3 scat bikes.
2x Warlocks on Bikes with 3 Scat bikes each.
2 vipers w BL HF

2nd attachment
Artaurch(?) on bike with 4 Scatbikes
10 dire avengers w/ WS with BL
Wraithlord w BL
Wraithknight
3 support batteries with Nightspinners

Should be fragile but could be fun.

With wraithlord and knight it shouldn't be too fragile. Should be murder vs. an infantry army.

I'll get to use the alt list tonight against YB wraithhost list. Hopefully whom ever my teammate is brings enough stopping power to fill in my deficiencies including anti air.

Ended up playing 2 vs 1 last night. Marine list and My alt Eldar vs. Grey Kights w/ 3 assassins and Imperial Knight allied with YB's Wraithhost. Good game. My Eldar performed marginally but hung in there enough for my Skyhammer list to pound home. Ending up winning with capturing all the objectives on the last turn. Hooray for fast traveling jetbikes. The assassin were insanely powerful but due to some lucky rolls I managed to avoid the initial pounding from them.

Considering I deployed first and was going for a initial Alpha strike. Hoping to get the WS popped and skyhammer the Wraithguard ( with all the D weapons ) They stole the Initiative and I was in turn Alpha strike'd back. I could do nothing but take all the psychic and shooting from our opponents. They managed to severely cripple my bike squads, kill my Farseer, almost kill my wraithnight. Terminators everywhere thus Instantaneously I was on the defensive. Luckily my Skyhammer dropped where i needed them to be and with my shooting managed to pop the WS with the Wraithguard with the Dscythes on my very last roll allowing me to grav them to oblivion. Grav squish their wraithknight as well. I managed to get into some assault though not many good soft targets to pick from. Other shooting finished off 1 of the 2 Dreadknights and left the other with 1 wound remaining. On the other side of the table the Imperial knight pretty much did what ever it wanted with no worries.

By the end of the game I managed to turbo boost to the objectives I didn't have to win the game. I think they were more interested in wiping me out than getting points. Lesson learned?

Sounds like a good game SL. Skyhammer with the speedy bikes would certainly be a potent combination.

Yep,, would have been interesting to see how it would have played out if we had gone a few more turns.

Eldar army are looking very nice Solar
