Hello peeps.

So I am off to WHW in a few weeks and going to be playing in 2 battles against my mates Eldar and Khorne CSM armies. What better foe for them to face other than their arch nemesis, the dread forces of the Dark Prince. Now, we're not into major competitiveness, but of course we do play to win. So how well can my lost do and what should I be doing with each unit? I don't have anything else to use so this is pretty much it.

Rolling on Teletpathy with the Sorcerer and the KoS and rocking pretty much down the middle I guess along with the Daemonettes, depending on what sort of mission we play for. Predator and the Havocs will shoot stuff as well the Noise Marines with their Blastmasters, if that dies though will start moving them up as they won't be much use anymore. The Helblade will fly around shooting stuff as well, with it's 2x TL rending autocannon i'm hoping to do some damage even if it does have poor armour and HP. Will go for his War Walkers as hopefully should be able to take one of those out a round.

His list Eldar list is, I know he has a horrible formation where he likes to deepstrike in with Falcons that don't scatter and out pop Dark Reapers that wreck me from behind (oo err misses!)

I just realised that my Keeper of Secrets has over the allowed limit of rewards so now my list is 30 points short.

Any ideas on what I could spend the 30 points on to get back up to 1999 or even 2000?

If you can get the Chaos item that is essentially a Flamer with Torrent.

That's actually not a bad idea and with Lucius in the mix that could open up a world of paaaaaiiiinnnnnnnnn

I'll stick that on the Sorcerer or

I could stick a lesser reward on the alluress, not much point on the KoS I don't think. I can also up the squad size by 10 rather than 9 on the Daemonettes and add extra armour to the Predator.

Or

I can up the squad size to 10, give the Sorcerer a spell familiar and either give the Predator Extra Armour or give the Alluress a Lesser Reward?

Which would be better to do do you think?
