Eldrad Ulthran. 210 Points
2 Ten-man Dire avenger squads w/ exarchs duel-wielding Avenger Catapults and Bladestorm. 152 Points each.
2 Five-man Pathfinder squads. 120 points each.
2 Wave Serpents with Bright Lances, shuriken cannons, Star Engines, Spirit stones. 160 points each.
1 Wave Serpent with a starcannon, all of the above besides the lance. 150 points.
An autarch with an avenger catapult and a scorpion chainsword. 77 points.
1 Five-man Fire Dragon squad with an exarch that has tankhunter, crack shot, and a firepike. 120 points.
2 Five-man Shining Spear squads with an exarch that has skilled rider, withdraw, and a laser lance. 217 points each.
The idea is to start with a dire avenger squad in each of the bright-lance wave serpents, one paired with eldrad, the other with the autarch. The Fire dragons would be inside the third serpent. The Shining spears would be held in reserve or start on the field, depending on the battle. Rangers would take objectives/cover using scouts or outflank.

Great start, no problems here!

Again, another solid choice when they're in the wave serpents.

IMO they aren't worth taking two squads. You can use one to camp in the back field on an objective but it's a lot of points that could be better used elsewhere.

Brightlances are over costed, and considering you only get 1 shot per turn, unreliable. You'd be better off with an EML for popping transports, then saving the big tanks for your fire dragons. Star engines are okay, if you have the spare points they can come in handy, but they aren't a "must have".

Again, Star Cannons are over priced. As cover saves are so easy to come by in 5th ed, their good AP sort of goes to waste.

Not bad, I thing another seer woud be momre beneficial, but if you want a bit of variety then stick with him.

The upgrades are over-kill 5 normal dragons are enough to get the job done 90% of the time.

Very expensive, very fragile. If I was you I'd drop them completely, consider replacing them with a small squad of guardian jetbikes for ast second objective stealing.


You haven't taken any heavy support options, and your elite slot isnt maxed out either. These are the two best slots for Eldar, so I'd suggest you look at adding in some Fire Prisms (make sure you take two or three so you can link fire) and/or some war walkers. As far as the elite's go, I'd suggest you add another 80 point (naked) 5 man dragon squad, They will be much more effective than bright lances at cracking things like land raiders and monoliths. I hope some of this helps ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3087470.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3087470.page GMT 1850 Point Eldar Fast List
Personally I would use those points on more dire avengers and changing the autarch to a second farseer.

You also might want to try 2 squads of fire dragons, on multiple wound invuln save models you can double team them with the fire dragons which will most likely take them out]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3087644.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3087644.page GMT 1850 Point Eldar Fast List http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3091827.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3091827.page GMT Re:1850 Point Eldar Fast List MC will be a dead MC :( If you take just one believe me he will become a magnet for all the enemies Str8 weaponry.

Farseers, 5 man fire dragons in a shuri cannon serpent and war walker sqns are in my opinion the best eldar units. The war walkers have scout and can outflank so is more in keeping with your fast list than a wraithlord.

Point for point I can't think of a better elite choice than fire dragons, for 80pts you have a unit that can take down pretty much any tank in the game, they are also great at taking out monstrous creatures and small infantry units don't stand a chance.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3092528.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3092528.page GMT 1850 Point Eldar Fast List Too many upgrades of my liking, like star engines and FD exarch.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3093239.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383897/3093239.page GMT
