Hi guys
I'll be having a 850 points tournament in one month from now.The restrictions are:
No unit wound more than 3
No vehicle with AV more than 34 in total
No flyer
No Artifacts
Max 2 Reserve units
No Fortifications
No special character
Max Psyker mastery level is 2
If you have the option to take flying monsterous creature, you can only have them in glide mode and not swooping

FOC:
HQ - max 25% points from 850(so that means 212 points)
Elite - max 25% points from 850(so that means 212 points)
Fast Attack - max 25% points from 850(so that means 212 points)
Heavy - max 25% points from 850(so that means 212 points)
Max 2 Dedicated transport unit

With these restrictions I could not bring serpent spam,so only 2 wave serpents.

Here is the list that I made.Please give me comments and critics about the list

HQ:
Autarch (83)
Fusion gun,Scorpion chainsword

Troops:
7 man Dire Avengers (236)
Wave serpent,Twin linked Scatter Laser,Shuriken Cannon,Holo-fields

7 man Dire Avengers (236)
Wave serpent,Twin linked Scatter Laser,Shuriken Cannon,Holo-fields

5 man Windrider Jetbikes (85)

Heavy Support


War Walker Squadron (210)
3 War Walkers,6 Bright Lances

Strong list. I doubt your going to see much AV13/14 due to the rules(I guess a predator or vindicator would fit) so you could toss the lances on the walkers for scatter lasers. Even with front armor 13, eldar are mobile enough to get side shots, and all that S6 will dakka through.

Wave serpents will be very powerful at this points level, supported with avengers for rending dakka, your gravy.

The most important rule of 40K-Page XVII of the 6th edition rulebook, the figure at the top right of the page. "Shake hands with your opponent and thank them for a good battle and fun experience." Then go out for a beer.

Not only are the lances a waste with no av 13 or 14 but why not split the war walkers to individual units? Also not seeing what the autarch adds as listed. But give him a fusion gun and lance on a bike and he adds a lot to the bikes

thanks for the tip,I plan to use bright lance to give instant death,cause the enemy can bring 2+armour save now,even though there are heaps of shots and wounds,but with that 2+ it will be hard for me but that is just my opinion,and I haven't test this list yet also the war walkers and jetbikes are still in assembly step

Well why didn't I think of that?? them war walkers can now shoot to other targets,thanks dude! Well as for bright lance,its the same with Dr.Sterling,I could use the lance to give instant death and ignore that 2+ armour save. Well I have revise the list to give the autarch Jetbike and the total list falls at 846.

Given the number of times instant death will matterand the orevelence of inv saves I would say a star cannon would out perform a brightlance vs infantry targets and be ap2 or a missile launcher no need for flakk missiles given the rules to have anti armor. That said with max armor 12 your biggest threat is wave serpent spam . the autarch with a fusion gun on a bike though means huge anti armor

I would drop 1 avenger from each unit and buy another jetbike, and then give the serpent's cannons to the jetbike unit, then stick the autarch on bike in that unit, so now they have lots of good dakka.

Also If you pin the war walkers weapon, and you take them in 3 units of 1, you can take say, Walkers with duel BL, walker with duel SL, walker with duel SC, so if you need a little of each you have it.

OK, final C&C is,

1) take 1 cannon from serpent give to WRJ so they now have 2

2) drop autarch +105

3) drop other serpent's cannon +10

4) take farseer on bike -115

I think it would help more, with the guide/prescience not to mention doom is almost broken.

I cant bring a Farseer,If I can I would already place him in the list,the max Psyker level for the tournament is 2, So the WRJ plus Autarch will hunt heavy infantries and Tanks?
