List thoughts: well, i dont play at 1850 at my local store, I play at 1500, so this was kind of tacking 350 points onto my 1500 list. The list performed okay, there were some obvious things that didnt work out. Bright lances were an incredible point sink that simply did nothing. I dont think I blew up one tank all day with them. The scropions really are no good in assault against dedicated assault units, and also seemed like a major point sink. Guardians on foot really just are no good in an all tank army
lol, I always reserved them for fear of them dying incredibly quickly. But I needed the 3rd troop choice.
Game 1
Game 2
Game 3 & 4
Game 1:
Dark Eldar
Not sure on the
HQs, he had 2, one on a bike, one in a tank
2 wych units in raiders, one had an
HQ
3 warrior units, all on foot, some lances, plasma cannons, etc
2 bike units, one had
HQ
3 Ravagers
It was kill points with table quarter secondary, pitched battle. I won the roll off and went first.
Turn 1: I blew up the building his warriors were in, and he lost a bunch in the explosion, who ended up failing their moral and eventually run off the board. I shot up his warirors pretty bad on the right, and in the center, but both pass leaderships.
His wyches and
HQ turn 1 assault my avatar, which ends up being a tarpit until about turn 5 when I finish them off.
Turn 2:
Dragons drop off and flamer a unit in the back. Scorpions flat out to go after a warrior unit back right.
His bike with
HQ assault my fire prism and stun it. His other bike unit pushes forward. He has a raider with wyches on the right flank out of picture range. He imobilizes the storm guardian wave serpent. He wipes my dragons from the board.
Turn 3:
My guardians come in from reserve, and sit at board edge. Storm guardians get out of immobilised serpent and flamer his bike squad to death. I blow up his wych raider and they get pinned. The avatar combat is almost over, only the
HQ left now. Scorpions get out and obliterate the wych unit in the ruins. He wrecked my fire prism in my turn assault since I was stunned.
His bike
HQ breaks off, takes a wound from drugs. His other bike unit just obliterate my guardians in assault. He shots up my scorpions really bad and leaves 1 guy left.
Turn 4:
Eldrad and
DA get out and kill his bike
HQ. Storm guardians lite up his pinned wyches. Avatar combat ends. Basically clean up at this point, somewhere along the way Ive wrecked all his ravagers as well.
His turn, not much happens, just running away into a corener with his remaining tank.
Turn 5 and 6:
I end up tabling him.
Game 2,3,4 to come.
