Hey there people! I have designed what I believe to be the best 1850 Eldar army I can put together which is both a combination of power and also the most well rounded force I could make.
The tournament is ITC so hat means 3 detachments but only 2 of the same can be taken.
I thought this was an all rounder list where the Farseer acts as a support for the Wraithknight (invisibility would be key and getting shrouded/psychic shriek is good). The bikes are good at clearing out swarms and just having objective secured and strength 6 (5 units is going to be good). The Hornets are for trying to deal with other high armour targets (being able to scout and outflank, getting the rear armour of other targets could be a good strategy - but they are just good at killing terminators or marines etc). Then the Wraithknight is a
CC protection and my anti Super Heavy/Gargantuan as well as a high value bullet magnet to protect the rest of the army. Then the Crimson Hunters perform the same role as the Hornets but also serving as my anti-air. Then the Warp Spiders offer more strength 6 but also the possibility of offering more ap2 shots as and where it is needed. They are fairly survivable and can also deep strike behind enemy lines, alongside the Hornets if all goes to plan.
So all in all I would have lots of objective secured units, anti-swarm, anti-high armour, anti-Super Heavy/Gargantuan and anti-air.
The mission types also mean that I will be denying Elite choice kill points, Heavy Kill points. Although, I am going to struggle in the game where Fast Attack Choices because I have a possible 9 points to concede....
Let me know what you think! Thank you!
