I've never fought Eldar before but i know they have limited armor saves so the burning brand with torrent on the dp along with the heldrake should prove pretty bad. I'm mixing my game up a little by having a sorcerer in there, i see they are quite weak with only 2 wounds therefore he has terminator armour and a +3 invulnerable save and i have given him maximum psyker points and have looked at some pretty nifty things for him to do during the battle where he will be sandwhiched between the cultist units. I have customised my demon prince of a 3+ invuln save, demon weapons are good but in place of the sorcerer i could have a lord with pretty much the same output as the prince with the axe of blind fury, for this game though id rather have the prince with the invulnerable save and the torrent weapon. He also has hatred (is this against all units?) and gets to re roll failed saving throws of 1 meaning i would have to roll a 2 or 3 for him to die while re rolling ones. They also both have a gift of mutation. The spawn are the melee force, with good rolls they can survive multiple combat while losing only a couple of wounds or a couple of models. Saying that today i played a game where cultists destroyed 3 with ease. The cultists are to gather objectives or provide fodder for the hq meaning they can avoide challenges until the majority of units are dead. The defiler and 5 obliterators provide enough fire to wipe the board of potenial dangerous targets or soften up hqs for assault with the prince. Of course the Heldrake is the master weapon. Any opinions on this list for dealing with Eldar or Dark Angels.
