Hey
-
I have a great problem when I face Eldar´s, my plague-fleet can take any fleet in our champaign but both Eldar raiders and craft world Eldar are by my standard rely hard too beat.

I try to deploy 1 Hades, 2 carnage, 2 Devastation and then 2 slaughter and after that murderer class cruisers, sometime also 3-4 Infidels to counter the torpedoes.

I found it that the Eldar's LD is just too dame high and they out maneuver me to easily. If I rely put my self into the game and rolls rely good I can have a tie but to win I can never hope...

Do any of you out there have some killer tips on beating the Eldar? or If I'm only a bad player

(bye the way, is it only me or is the Craftworld Eldar über bad ass?)

I'd run the the Murders over the slaughters, better range and batteries in the broadside.

The main thing is to keep your fleet together. If you try to chase parts of their fleet, they'll just reform to concentrate on one part of yours at a time.

Your fleet makeup is good, its simply a matter of not letting them bait you in getting destroyed piecemeal.

tanks for the tip, sitting here now in the lokal game club, going to try it out in 5 min.

Lemme know how it turns out.

YEY!

I kickt the Eldar craft world right up his ass! I hade some luck with my dices but most of it was pure tactic.
Tanks for the tip I will use it more offen now.

We ended up playing Fleet Engenchment at 1400 pts, (to many withdrawsfor both so no ultimate fleet) I hade to defend my Forge world realy bad, it ended 47.5 VP to him (crippled one Carnage), I got 525 off him so I won by a lot! He maneged to stay around for one extra round to hinder me from capture his hulk.
