Hey ! I'm going against a friend's Eldar tomorrow .. He wants to test a list of his that I have no idea so I think I'll surprise him with a (fun) Mordrak list :

Hq:
Mordrak + 5x Ghost Knights w/ 2x NDH + 3x NFS 400
Librarian w/ NFS + Teleport homer + Shrouding + Summoning + Warp Rift + 1x Servo Skull 185

Elites:
5x Paladins w/ 2x Psycannons + 1x NFH (justicar) + 2x NFS (Psycannons) + 2x NDH 315
5x Paladins w/ 2x Psycannons + 1x NFH (justicar) + 2x NFS (Psycannons) + 2x NDH 315

Troop:
5x GKSS w/ Psycannon + 4x swords 110
5x GKSS w/ Psycannon + 4x swords 110
5x GKSS w/ Psycannon + 4x swords 110

Fast ATK:
5x Interceptors w/ Incinerator + 3x NFS + 1x NDH 160
5x Interceptors w/ Incinerator + 3x NFS + 1x NDH 160

Heavy Support:
Dreadnought w/ Nemesis Doom Fist with build in Heavy Flamer + TL Heavy Flamer + Psyflame Ammo + Warp Stabilisation Field 135

As for tactics I 'll DS with Mordrak "bomb" into a ruin (for 2+ cover with Libby's power and Ghost Knight's stealth) near opponent's deployment ... Take the heat !! Then second round I'll DS the Paladins 6" from Librarian , I'll bring the Dreadnought and shunt the Interceptors .. By the third round I think I'll get to assault .. The Strike Squads are there for camping objectives but they can also DS if need be ..
I can always trade a GKSS and the Dreadnought for a DK w/ Teleporter + Heavy Incinerator but I'm not sure if 2x troop choices are enough at 2k points even with Mordrak's Grand Strategy (1-3 more scoring units) ...

So how does this look?

It looks fun, but for 2k points not a lot of models, which may be only problem also I would swap for a DK incase he brings a wraithknight.

34 (I think) models is pretty decent for a 2000pt pure GK list containing 10 Paladins.

My lists generally run 45-50 models without Paladins at 2000.



Ha!...did you play this?...Please tell me you got to tele-flame with that dread?

The librarian's power and the ghosts both give the stealth special rule, so they don't stack unfortunately.

Not sure how great the paladins will be in this match-up. Outflanking, twin brightlance war walkers will hurt pretty bad with all those ID shots. Even worse if he brings hornets with dual pulse lasers.
