Here's the deal I'm super slow and seeing as I face Eldar all the time I can't keep up at all. I'm still pretty new to 40k and any help whatsoever would be great. Especially any tips on facing crazy fast vehicular eldar. I'm open to any suggestions. Thanks a lot. I love you.

Where is the second troop choice?

Aw dang! That's the second time I've done this! Still new... sorry bout that :(

I've fixed some things on the list because I'm a newbie I often make mistakes like not getting two troop choices lulz. It should be good now but like I said... I make mistakes and any suggestions or mistakes I've put in please let me know.

Thanks buds

Why the OH inquisitor? You arent making very much use of the options he can take. I would suggest switching him to an OX inquisitor with Rad and Psychotrokes and attach to the pallys and Draigo. One 6" range melta isnt going to make a difference.

That's a really good suggestion. I think I'll go ahead and throw that in there.

Any suggestions on a mechanized Eldar army?

there is no possible way to defeat mechdar with GK, you should probably get another army

tell that to my ard boyz GK's

when it comes down to say 1000 pts. I would only take coteaz with psy ass razor spam with tons of WA's with bolters and some Meltas.

I was joking, this is a guy I regularly play with.

You cannot have a Psycannon on the Paladins unless they are 5 strong. You are allowed to have 2 special weapons per 5 models, which means you must have 5 before you can buy any.

Additionally, I don't know that Paladins are the best idea at 1k, because you just don't have enough points to make them strong enough, and you really lack any sort of ranged firepower.

I would probably consider a gunline at this points level, with a Grand Master, a couple Psyfleman Dreads, and as many PAGK's as you can shove in the list. You can do units of 10 with 2x Psycannons and a Psybolt Razorback for 270 points, which makes for a solid base of firepower, but it does lack some mobility. I just think the versatility will make up for it.

For example:

Grandmaster - 175
10 Strike (2x Psycannon, Razorback w/ Psybolt Ammo) - 270
10 Strike (2x Psycannon, Razorback w/ Psybolt Ammo) - 270
Dreadnought (2x TL Autocannon, Psybolt Ammo) - 135
Dreadnought (2x TL Autocannon, Psybolt Ammo) - 135
Total 985

15 points left to spend on something like Grenades or a few weapon upgrades here and there. The Grandmaster can make the Dreadnoughts scoring units allowing them to hold your home objectives and push forward with your infantry to take objectives further up the field, or he can give the Strike Squads Scout and have them advance early. You can deploy them as 10 man units and use the Razorbacks to cover the Dreadnoughts, or you can combat squad them and have the Psycannons sit back while the Justicar and a few other Grey Knights move forward in the tanks to assault objectives.

Just a thought.

I didn't know that about the Paladins, Thanks for that. Also, I fought my friend above (zcantin) and I got destroyed lulz real bad. Just bad placement and bad rolls I didn't stand a chance. We talked about and yes my biggest problem is the range. I just can't get close enough lol

I was thinking about getting a Librarian instead of Draigo and getting rid of the Paladins for some points for Rhinos or Razorbacks. I really like your list, Aldarionn, but right now I just don't have the $$$ for it. But does the Librarian sound good?
