Pretty Standard Mechdar List. Open to any suggestions. If you post a suggestion to take away a certain unit such, make sure to give logical reasons why another unit would do better and how and why. Be Specific!

Elite-

6 Fire Dragons

6 Fire Dragons, 96 pts
-Wave Serpent Twin Linked EML , 120 pts
5 Fire Dragons, 96 pts.
-Wave Serpent Twin Linked EML , 120 pts

Fast Attack-

4 Shining Spears with , 227
Exarch - Withdraw and Starlance





List is pretty Basic. 3 Eldar Rocket Launchers. 3 Squads of Fire Dragons. Autharch with a fusion gun, Autarch with a str 8 Starlance. 8 Shuriken Cannons. Mech shouldnt be a problem at all.

The List is compleatly mobile. I can move wherever I want faster than my opponent. Ill have a couple firedragon squads go in supported by Dire Avengers. Ill have my Jetbikes flying around hitting things that dont want to get hit while doing jetbike business. Ill have my Shining Spears + Autarch Leading a charge into something causing alot of damage.

I know alot of you will say to bring a warlock with my Jetbikes. If they want to concentrate shots to a 3+ cover save, sure. Seer Council. Yea Ive herd alot of good things but I dont have the models. A Farseer might be a great idea Im not sure. Fortune on my Shining Spear Autarch Squad probably would be a game changer. Warwalkers could be incorporated I guess. Fire Prisms sure.

Any Input would be great, but be specific. If you say "add a seer council on jetbikes" tell me what to take out, and exactly how many with what to bring. Be specific and keep it mobile.

I would change it in the following way:

Drop the Shining Spears for two Fire prisms, 230 for the two prisms, and they are way more versatile and survivable than the spears.
Change the autarch to match the GJB now, since you won't be running him with the Spears anymore. Or swap him to a Farseer, RoWar, Doom,Guide and ride with one of the DA squads.

5 Fire Dragons can kill anything, so drop the two 6 man squads down to 5 men. You can possibly swap the one FD/WS set for another Fire Prism or Night Spinner.



Swap the EML on your FD Serpents and DA Serpents. If your opponent kills your FD serpernt, you lose 2 pieces of AT, where if they only have shuri-cannons on (and FD are suicide units) you feel the impact less.

Maximize your DA Squads. Bladestorm works best with more guys to buff.

Switching the EML makes sense ill do that.

Dropping the 6 Fire dragons to 5 ok.

Switching the Spears to Prisms makes sense. Ill do practice games with both and probably end up picking the Prisms.

Farseer with the DA squad with doom makes sense.

thanks

One thing to note, almost all of the changes will give you a minmal increase, with the exception of the Spears for Prisms.

You can leave the list exactly as it is(because it is a good list) just swap out those spears (they are quite possibly the worst unit in the codex interms of cost).
