Id suggest getting embolden over conceal (or an avatar) as you should find cover in your backfield easily enough for most of the troops but when you loose the inevitable casulties, you want to be able to have some staying power. As it standards, those 40 guardains could run of the table pretty fast vs a whirldwind or two.

Give the wraithlord a shuriken cannon, atleast. Even if he does want to run virtually every turn, hes got the weapon-mount for it & it is only 10pts.

Your little seer council cannot fleet :( For a foot-based council, this isnt exactly great.

Id suggest the howling banshee exarch get the powered glaive..as a str 5 WS5 exarch with 3 attacks on a charge is just too good to pass up. Im pretty sure the glaive is better overall, even including costs. Likewise the acrobatic & warshout abilities are a mere 5pts each and for the occasion one-in-every-6 then your opponent fails his LD test on a charge and they fight you with WS1.. well worth. Acrobatic (plus thier banshee masks) means they are immune to being counter-assaulted while not engaged.

Perhaps you'd think about switching two guardian squads for Stormguardians with meltas to chase tanks, solo UCM and the like. If they don't have such targets, let them support banshees and the council when outnumbered in cc.
Further on, give a weapon to the WL. What about a lance to hunt down vehicles
Just my two cents...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/624656.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/624656.page GMT Eldar Ulthwe Army List

Not that it matters in the least.

Too vague. Also.. I wish we could get solitares!

10mounted dire avengers are fine. Strong infact.

But with only 10-foot guardains & 3man GJS, thats very weak in terms of 'troops' at 1750. Likewise, a unit of 5 warp spyders wont do much except die then run away. Yes they are LD9, but if they take 2 casulties - they must test. Every casultie after that requires a test & if they fail these subsequent tests they cannot rally (they run of the board..unless they run into the fearless bubble from the avatar but thats beside the point)..

Sorry, just my critique. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/625815.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/625815.page GMT Re:Eldar Ulthwe Army List
Ive never really cared much for Harlequins or warp spiders and I agree with Razerous the guardian jet bikes...they are too gimpy and will be blow away to fast. I also dont really see the need for an avatar with so few guardians. Well just my personal opinion. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/625848.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/625848.page GMT Eldar Ulthwe Army List

It does really good at 1750. Don't know about 1850 or 2150pt matches though.
The one 2150 match I played was a quick pick-up game against my friends all armored BT force and just added two squads of harlies for the extrapoints. Didn't know until I started pulling the army out that he was running the All-armoured.
If I had the models I would have added another Guardian jetbike squad and some more vypers instead. Ah well, live and learn. I will say that harlies don't seem to mix well in my list.

The list is a jetbike/mechdar list. Let me know if your interested in seeing it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/626472.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/626472.page GMT Eldar Ulthwe Army List http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/626610.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/626610.page GMT Re:Eldar Ulthwe Army List

You need a reliable way to deal with mech lists at this point value, and guardians with EMLs and one Wraithlord wont cut it.

4 bs 3 krak missile & one bs4 krak missile Plus a str8 lance weapon actually will be quite good agasint mechenised armies as the majority are AV11-12 as were talking about transports here. The the avatar as a melta-gun-sword-thing so he can shoot the turn before he could charge but his main role is to secure the saftey of those guardains.

The only problem this list will have, anti-armor terms is either a couple of landraiders or a monolith but the seer-council do have the ability to counter this threat, at a closer distance. (I.e better-than-melta range)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/627119.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/627119.page GMT Eldar Ulthwe Army List http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/628976.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/628976.page GMT Eldar Ulthwe Army List str. 9 attachs is really good...but 6-10 str. 8 2d6 AP is flupping increadable. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/628995.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/628995.page GMT Re:Eldar Ulthwe Army List
While AP1 is good.. if you dont get to roll on the damage table through lack of a glancing hit then it does you no good.. So str 9 is superoir in that respect. For meltaguns to be really effective you need to be within 6" and likewise, with multi-meltas, you need to stand still & be within 12" (only if its an infantry mounted version) while you can move 6" and throw 12" at full effectiveness... Thats all I ment

* As in, heat up, cook, singe, fry, melt and basically serve as tasty smoking flesh morsels similiar to that of a cooked prawn reguardless of thier previous armorment. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/629091.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233939/629091.page GMT Eldar Ulthwe Army List AP 4.
