I'm working on a Harlequins list and am thinking about adding a CWE Spearhead detachment for some anti-tank support. Possible options include 3x War Walkers and a cheap HQ of some sort and 3x Wraithlords and a Spiritseer. I'm also considering a flyer detachment with some combination of Hemlocks and CH Exarchs. For the two spearheads, I've also been thinking about making them Ynnari and bringing Yvraine as the HQ (she would hop in a transport with a troupe). Has anyone done something similar? Are there other possibilities? I'm looking for some anti-tank punch, but want to keep the infantry focus on the Harlequins (so a few units of Dark Reapers aren't ideal).

Well you said everything that is all great tod o.

Honestly, amke a list with Dark Reapers, another with War Walkers, and one with a combine of some, or just a Hemlock and some etc..

Proxy the models 1st if you need to, no one will get mad at you if you are testing units you like before you buy.


When i was playing harlequins i found (even with 20-27 FP's) i needed long range AT as well, i test the same things as you but i found Ravagers were really good, a Succubus with 3 Ravagers did a really good job.

But lately i've been playing with 4 Voidweavers and doing great with them, they are not very good at Long range AT at all (they need the heavy weapons to be assault IMO) It works b.c its mass -1/4++ vehicles

Especially for anti tank I would go with Dark eldar. Ravagers are great for their points!

CWE is only better with dark reapers, but the are quite fragile, so they need more support like a deployment transport to protect them from alpha strikes. But they scale amazingly with buffs like yvraine or a farseer.
Think about runing a patrol consisting of: Yvraine, 5 Kabalite Warriors (could be any troop) and 5-10 dark reapers. Add in a serpent or falcon if you have enough points.

Well, I'd take Dark Reapers (eventually with a Serpent) and two Fire Prisms.
Gives you decent anti-tank and anti-heavy-infantry.

Dark reapers are really strong right now. If you're looking for Craftworlds fire support I'd strongly recommend them.
