I see what you did there!

I am gonna take a guess, but in the rare 3,000 point games you might play, do you also spend 250-300 points on 2 Farseers?

You're kidding right? Everyone knows that Eldar can't play in 3,000 point games unless they take Eldrad.

Just by extrapolation.

In small pt games makes not much sense as Farseers are just support characters.

I hardly ever use special characters unless I made them myself (and only then with my opponents permision, naturally). The ones in the book don't really have the right personalities for me.

As for standard HQ choices, I just take a bare-bones choice whenever. Mine usually die really fast, so there is no point for me to put more points in them.

I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.
