I built this list to counter one of the meanest, nastiest players I've ever seen. He uses cheese and broken lists, and this is the list that was born of that frustration. Yes, it is cheesy. But can it bring down a veteran who still thinks I'm going to play a fluffy, friendly game?

No Wave Serpents for the Wraithguard?

No Super Heavy?

Aren't Wraithknights super heavies? There's two of them.

At 10k I think using Phantom and Revenants is justified.

Primary 4 with D weapons is brutal. As is being hit on 6's in CC.

I guess the only real downside is the price xD

I don't know what you mean by Phantom and Reverants.

Ah, yes. The financial cost is going to hurt me almost as much as the point cost will hurt my opponents.

Do you know what Forge World is?

Yes. It's where you go if you want to punish yourself by assembling massive models made of "finecast resin".

Not enough wraithknights. If you can manage 3 more knights, take the wrathknight dreamwalker squad. For this point level it sure has a lot of units, but depending on what your opponent brings, it doesn't feel overwhelming.

Have y'all played 10000 point games before? Are you using the Apocalypse ruleset for this game?

As others have said, bringing as many wraithknights as you can is not a bad idea.

If your opponent is so cheesy, he's likely to bring big forgeworld titans, so you should be ready for that with all those D weapons in the Eldar codex.

Alright you need to show this tool how to die and you don't want to break the bank.

4 x Minimum windriderhost: 1 x Farseer 1 x Warlock 3 x 3 Scat Bikes, 1 x Vyper 431 1724
2 X Seer Council 2x Farseer 10 x Warlock 770 1540
2 X Autarch on bike w banshee mask 180
Multiples of Hemlock bombers say 6 1110
4 x Wraithknight 1180

You are providing him with the pleasure of killing the wraithknights. The true purposeis to get 1 farseer per seer council with Invisibility.
and then a psychic shrieks per hemlock and seer council. Drop a few WC 4 Eldrich Storms to soften up any targets. So with a shriek with a hemlock in range is 2x 3d6 Ld tests at an 8 at best that means enemy pain squads of 10 are going to take 5 casualties per psychic phase, followed by multiple spears followed by charges that are enhanced by the warlocks this should provide two star units per turn that will die at minimum.

May I ask why 10000 points this apocolypse wich invites cheese. You only need 1x windrider host, 1 x seer council 1x wraithknight and tthen multiples of hemlocks to fill out the points and you can qualify on one FOC. Say around 2500 points... BTW ally with dark eldar and maximize the Ld test and Ld modifier fun.

I have updated the list. Check Version 2.5

He hates Forge World as much as I do, because of resin. He's not getting anything from there, that's a certainty.

Please take a look at my updated list to see a Harlequin detachment. I am all for maximizing two things, in the following order:

1. The power of cheese
2. The variety of models I get to build

I think your Dark Eldar is an interesting suggestion. I'll research them and build Version 3 soon.
