Don't think it needs much explanation, it's an iyanden list so every seer will take Voice of Twilight. Means I should have 30 odd strength 10 cannons running accross the board and shooting...

Your army is super slow though. I would think Tau and Eldar would be your worst enemies since they could easily stay out of your gun range and plink away.

It will do ok in some matchups, and certainly get murdered in others. I wouldn't call it a viable tournament list, not at all. Wraithscythes would be better for some squads. Now, small squads all in Serpents would be viable.

You have no answer for flyers except making a couple of snap shots at short range.

An FMC List will murder you, you can't ground them and unless you get a lucky overwatch you are done.

Riptide Spam crushes you especially the Twin Linked Ignore cover S8/AP Large Blast variety.

Serpent Spam will slaughter you.

Wraithspam and NightScyth Spam kill you.

The competitive Guard builds will have your number.

Helldrakes will make you cry.

Venom/Ravager Spam will just smile.

ScreamerStar, Khornedog, etc all has your number bad.

FootDar will bladestorm you and you will never kill enough of them.

Tyranids will get you. Poisoned Guants will win, Iron Arm/Endurance FMCs will give you huge issues, worse if they are FMCs.


Honestly, I can't think of a competitive list this would fair well against. Its more of a fun list but has no place in a competitive environment.

I think it is a playable game in most friendly battles, but once you break into the competitive market the words of Zagman hold true. Any competitive list now a days has no problem breaking through 2+ armor(considering the ability for Spiritseers to give this to the Wraith units) in fashion.

Plasma is the new black afterall.

each squad can be dropped down to 5 man, and get a serpent for each, with points left over.
