I think it is our obligation as a gaming community not to give into rubbish like this list - no offence to you for writing it, everyone is writing the same lists right now because we all want to see how "good" we can make a list.

if we want our game back we seriously need to put the finger up to GW and demand them to fix these massive flaws that out weigh anything in 6th.

We need rules to play too which we can decide to break ourselves - Giving people freedom causes chaos!

We cannot be trusted!!!

that really isn't true, unless you have several good psychers yourself, you are not going to be able to stop any of this.

Tau and necrons in particular are totally boned.

I think each and every list will have good to decent psychic defense because ANYONE can take seer councils or GKSS or what ever the hell they want. And that's the problem.

GW made it fun so we could do funny things like running a harlequin army, but also should have capped the warp charges available to avoid armies that are like these (I have seen them all over the internet).

I know at my LGS this list would never work for a few reasons.

1) TO says F*** no
2) everyone else will bring their own psychic spam list

Because when everyone take 30+ WC it all suddenly becomes crappy,

Doesn't work anyway... As somebody already mentioned, a unit may only manifest each power once per phase, so no multiple summonings/sacrifices/incursions/possessions from the same council, unfortunately...

Note to the reader: my username is not arrogance. No, my name is taken from the most excellent of commanders: Lord Castellan Creed, of the Imperial Guar- I mean Astra Militarum - who has a special rule known only as "Tactical Genius"... Although nowhere near as awesome as before, it now allows some cool stuff for the Guar- Astra Militarum - player. FEAR ME AND MY TWO WARLORD TRAITS.

Im going to start running my eldar lists with one extra farseer (for a total of 3, my list will still be battle forged to) And am going to roll on daemon summing powers with 2 of them. The last farseer is going for shrouding.

Shrouding is freaking great. I think it has been overlooked due to the huge buff of Invis.

K, if I'm reading this right, then I think I've found a GENUINE problem you're going to have with this army. You have everything as 1 or 2 Unit right? (Assuming this since only 1 unit +IC's can only occupy a building still.)

Pg.24
'... no unit can attempt to manifest the same psychic power more than once per Psychic phase.'


So you're either going to have to disembark from your bastion into lots of little IC's running around to summon multiple units, then get shot up on the next turn, or stall until you need to summon more than 1-2 per turn.

Or did I miss something?

Another unbound list I call this the Daemon Factory as basically everyone takes Daemonolgy:

Eldrad 205
9 Farseers: 8 Witnessing, 3 Warding, 1 Spirit Stone of Anathlan 1055
4 Warlocks 140

Bastion: Void Shield

Everything sits in the Bastion and I get 35+d6 Warp Charge with 9 rerolls and you're not getting ANY powers off Ever! I would expect to get 5-6 summons off a turn against anyone without serious psychic protection. Remembering 1 Farseer gets to cast those WC3 summoning spells ad WC2, Whilst Eldrad can gain WC back with every cast. Even with strong Psychic defence I should be creating 3-4 new units a turn. If those units are Tzeentch that number increases as the game goes on. I feel this matches up well vs the Tzeentch version due to the increased Psychic defence and rerolls on psychic tests allowing me to use less dice to cast (coupled with the Stone and Eldrad).

What do you think?


hey man. You commented on my post comparing our two lists with the same goal in mind. While we both want to summon, my list is restricted by the Battle-Forged FoC. Have fun though!

...that big sanction stamp of APPROVAL means it's OFFICIAL. No, I don't have to ask you for permission. D-cannons win games.
