How have Eldar and Necrons changed from 6th to 7th?
Both have gotten better. However, Necrons present enough of a problem matchup for Eldar to take this game.
Both have gotten better, and both generals fight to a draw.
While Necrons have gotten better, Eldar has gotten the bigger boon thanks to ObSec Wave Serpents. Eldar takes it.

Not that many have realized the changes to vehicle movement yet and I am sure you guys were unaware of the changes but I would suggest reading this thread in reagards to deploying vehicles sideways to "cheat" extra movement.

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/602413.page

The short of it is that vehicle movement is a mess now playing RAW, so I am sure most movement will be conducted grandfathering previous editions however it is pretty clear cut that the rotation of a model for gained movement is certainly illegal now.

Again, wouldn't have impacted this match a wink from how it reads but since it is the first good example of what was an often used tactic that is no longer legal, I figured I would share the link.


Back to the report, I have to say the eldar rolling appears pretty hot at the moment, and without that even luckier warlord trait for the necrons this should actually be in their favor. Appears as though the eldar really lack a fast tool with which to kill the necron warlord in time to prevent him from gaining huge amounts of VP's. Which is troubling since WK's should be a great answer.
