Figured I'd post this one up for shats and giggles, so please be aware that it is meant to be a fluffy for looks army. The units won't change, but their loadout could be up for debate.

Curious on the masses' estimates of it's viability.

very nice SNG list honestly i would love to see the guys face when a bucket of die get rolled with all the shooting

Sup Bluedagger!

I guess it depensd on what craftworld your imitating, but I guess you have your own craftworld so Craftworld Uaire-Nem is very Guardian heavy? ye that makes sense.

I think Iyanden is guardian heavy as well?

Alaitoc is Elite heavy?
Uthewe is Guardian heavy/mech heavy/phsker heavy?

Craftworld Avior is Jetbike heavy.

Cool list, although aspect warriors always fit fluff.

PS:you should hlep me decide on going to FoB.

Correct this is for my self made Craftworld Uaire-Nem. This list was nicknamed the Emergency Militia list since it would only ever be seen in an extreme emergency. The craftworld tries to hide it's Avatar for the most part due to it's um... well... corruption?

Here is a bit of a fluffy blurb.

During the Fall, this small Craftworld was outfitted with a prototype engine that allowed Webway travel in a desperate attempt to save millions of Eldar Youth left parentless by madness of the maiden worlds. Unfortunely, it wasn't able to get away fast enough and was caught by Slaneesh's birth scream while entering the webway, but something strange had happened. The scream slaughtered all but a handful of the adult Eldar and yet left the youth population largely unscathed.

Lead by two Swooping Hawk Exarchs, Uairebhuidhe (Celtic Bird Goddess) and Nemglan (Celtic God of Birds), the population of later named Craftworld Uaire-Nem harnessed their passion for vengence in the Aspect of the Hawk and have always strayed from the path. With an utter obsession with Speed, Vengence, and Flight, even their Craftworld's Avatar shows signs of their mental state as a culture.

Traditionally, here's what the fluff says about the different craftworlds:

Iyanden Craftworld relies upon its Ghost Warriors (Wraithguard, Wraithlords, Spiritseers) to do its fighting as they lost so many warriors to the Tyranids they can no longer field a traditional army.
Biel-Tan has more Aspect Warrior temples than any other Craftworld, and so tends to field entire armies of Aspect Warriors instead of risking their citizens.
Saim-Hann has more vehicles and jetbikes than any other Craftworld.
Ulthwe has more Psykers than any other Craftworld, and so they rely primarily upon the Seer Councils, backed up by the Black Guardians (better than average Guardians)
Alaitoc uses Rangers and Pathfinders more than any other Craftworld.

Several other Craftworlds have been named, but those are the "Big Five" in the fluff. As to the original post, I think the army is extremely traditional and will look great on the tabletop. Hat's off to you!

-The Avatar conversion is about 60% complete (not including painting)
- 1 Guardian Squad is finished with the other 5 squads at about 60%
- 1 Dcannon unit is done with the other not assembled yet
- Wraithhawk and Eldrina have of course been done for quite some time.

Overall it's just VERRRRRY time consuming since I'm a bit OCD in painting. Here's what even just 50ish Guardians look like standing side by side (old WIP pic),




and yes Smitty of course you should come to FoB. How else are we going to have that late night Eldar civil war match?
