				<title>Help selecting tournament lists, advice on meta/strategy</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello denizens of dakka! It's been awhile since I've been on but it's good to be back. I'm participating in a tournament this weekend and am debating between two lists: one <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(10);'>BA</span>, the other Eldar. I have a lot of experience with both lists but allow me to explain my local meta quickly.<br /> <br /> We have no daemon players, and I'm fairly certain no one I'm concerned with is going to bring Tau or even Eldar. The players I am most concerned with (ie- most skill, experience with competitive play) are bringing the following kinds of list: Venomspam with Eldar allies, hoard Space Wolves, Necrons w/ Grey Knight allies, Mega-armored battle wagon orks, and a balanced but nasty <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(69);'>IG</span> list.<br /> <br /> The two I'm most fearful of are venomspam w/ eldar and <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(69);'>IG</span>. The missions are going to be old-school recon with spearhead deployment, kill points on diagonal deployment, and d3+1 objectives on standard 12" deployment.<br /> <br /> So here are my lists, Eldar and Blood Angels respectively (both 2k):<br /> <br /> The Blood Angels force starts out behind an aegis line with the pods in reserve. On the first turn I cast my div powers on the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(29);'>devs</span> and fly the assault marines out while 1 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(167);'>tac</span> marine squad and the Death company hit the opponents backline. Somewhere juicy but not too suicidal. The trick here is using divination to enhance my shooting and close combat, and using Corbulo as an insane bullet magnet (using look outs to avoid instadeath by AP2 stuff). <br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br />    <br /> Librarian…115<br /> -Infernus pistol, divination powers<br /> <br /> Librarian…125<br /> -Jump pack, divination powers<br /> <br /> <b>ELITES</b><br />    <br /> Sanguinary priest w/ jump pack & Corbulo…180   <br />  <br /> <b>TROOPS</b>   <br />       <br /> 10-man Assault squad… 200<br /> -Flamer x2      <br /> <br /> 10-man Assault squad… 210<br /> -Meltagun x2<br /> <br /> 10-man Death Company … 260   <br /> -Boltguns, power fists x2<br /> -Drop pod<br /> <br /> 10-man tactical squad…220<br /> -Meltagun, sergeant w/ combi-melta, missile launcher<br /> -Drop pod   <br /> <br /> 10-man tactical squad…220<br /> -Meltagun, sergeant w/ combi-melta, heavy bolter<br /> -Drop pod<br />    <br /> <b>HEAVY SUPPORT</b>   <br /> <br />  7 Devastators… 162   <br /> -Missile launchers x4<br /> <br /> 7 Devastators… 222   <br /> -Lascannons x4   <br /> <br /> <b>FORTIFICATIONS</b><br /> <br /> Aegis Defense Line w/ Icarus lascannon…85<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The Eldar list is a mix of things I like in the book and have had good experiences with. I mostly hang around 24" and strike weak points when I can, in typical Eldar fashion. Lots of guerilla warfare tactics here, some sit back and shoot with the prisms. I like to play serpents aggressively. <br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br />  <br /> Farseer…100		<br />  	<br /> Spiritseer…70<br />   	<br /> TROOPS	<br />  <br /> 20 guardian defenders…220		<br /> -Scatter laser, starcannon<br />   <br /> 5 Dire Avengers…210<br /> -Wave serpent w/ twin-linked scatter laser, underslung shuriken cannon, and holo-fields<br /> <br /> 5 Dire Avengers…200<br /> -Wave serpent w/ twin-linked bright lance and holo-fields<br /> <br /> 5 Wraithguard…295<br /> -Armed with D-cannons<br /> -Wave serpent w/ twin-linked bright lance, and holo-fields<br /> <br /> FAST ATTACK<br />  <br /> 7 Warp Spiders…133	<br /> <br /> Crimson Hunter…160<br /> <br /> 6 Swooping Hawks…121<br /> -Exarch w/ sunrifle<br />  <br /> HEAVY SUPPORT	<br /> <br /> Fire Prism…140<br /> -Holo-fields<br /> <br /> Fire Prism…140<br /> -Holo-fields<br /> <br /> 3 War Walkers…210<br /> -Each w/ scatter laser, starcannon<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> So there you have it. I'll take comments and criticism on either list, my playstyle, any feedback you'd like to give ;D<br /> <br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: 9px; line-height: normal;">Automatically Appended Next Post:</span><br /> I did a little update on the Eldar list. Threw some wraithguard troops in in favor of the rangers, traded some points around.]]></description>
