Hello! I am interested in trying to make Castellans competitive (just for local stuff) and am planning to fight the new Aeldari Detachment this weekend. Can you help me?

I feel like the detachment needs coteaz but he is all alone basically and then an easy KP and not useful... I took the cheap henchman thinking he could hide there, they are obsec, can shoot their witch power out of the top of the chimera. I also don't know how I feel about the grav cents without any support. I like them normally with a Libo BUT coteaz cant join the pod cause they are not the same faction! If they could I would do that in a heartbeat and get some prescience love on them. I don't know that I like them without the rerolls. Thoughts?

I plan to hide Coteaz in henchmen with some Crusaders. They're the cheapest 3++ storm shields.

Celestine gives you access to a relic that has iron halo effect and gives a 12" deep strike block that cannot be entered by strikes. If you scatter into the 12" it forces a deepstrike mishap. Could be an alternative to coteaz but you don't get obsec.

Yea coteaz has to hide somewhere. Wish there was a slot for a bunker in this list!


I do like that relic a lot ceann and though about putting it on a bike libo and running with the command squad but lose of obsec seems bad with so many small maneuverable units.

Why dont you get a bunker? ^^ Get a bunker and shove him inside

There isn't a fortification slow in the detachment so I need a cad too then
