<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "1000 points 3 Eldar lists, first game in ages"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net 1000 points 3 Eldar lists, first game in ages GW this saturday. I'm playing Eldar and I have DEldar allies, but at 1000 points I'm not thinking of including allies. Being my first game in a while I'm thinking of running the first list this week and then buying a bit more stuff later to run the 2nd list another time. But I would like some feedback as to what tactics I could employ or whether I'm just going to get annihilated.
So I present to you 2 lists. The fist is admittedly not very strong, but it's with the models that I have (and like) and I would only need to buy the wraithguard. Here it is:

998 points

HQ:
-Spiritseer (70)
TROOPS:
-10 Dire Avengers (130)
-5 Wraithguard (160)
-Wave Serpent with Shurican, TL Scatter Lasers (130)
ELITES:
-5 Harlequins with 2 Kisses, Troupe Master and Shadow Seer (148)
FA:
-3 Vypers with 3 Shuricans and 3 Star Cannons (195)
HS:
-Wraithlord with Ghost Glaive, 2 Bright Lances (165)

The second list would require me to spend much more money all in one go (I don't have the Autarch, Wraithguard, 2nd Serpent, or Rangers), but I think it's significantly more powerful, less fragile and more flexible:

1000 points

HQ:
-Autarch with Jetbike, Mantle, Laser Lance, Banshee Mask (140)
-Spiritseer (70)
Troops:
-5 Rangers (60)
-5 Wraithguard (160)
-Wave Serpent with Shurican, TL Scatter Lasers (130)
-10 Dire Avengers (130)
-Wave Serpent with Shurican, TL Scatter Lasers (130)
FA:
-3 Vypers with 3 Shuricans (180)

For things to possibly include I have in addition:
A squad of 9 Harlies in total,
2 Wraithlords, one with Lances and one with Scatter Lasers,
An Archon,
9 Kabalites with a Raider,
5 Incubi in a Venom,
A Ravager with Lances.

Thanks for reading and for any replies!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6234884.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6234884.page GMT Re:1000 points 3 Eldar lists, first game in ages

You need to take them in bigger squads and even then they are pretty easy to kill.
Can't say anything about DE allies because I'm not really up to speed with DE in this or any editions. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6236158.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6236158.page GMT 1000 points 3 Eldar lists, first game in ages
I was thinking of using the Rangers just to sit on my home objective really, or maybe outflank late in the game to get linebreaker. Then using scoring wraithguard and DAs for midfield objectives.

You've got a good point about the Harlequins though, just 5 of them seems really flimsy and expensive points-wise!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6236175.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6236175.page GMT 1000 points 3 Eldar lists, first game in ages
EDIT: Just remembered that you need to take an HQ from an allied detachment, so my advice doesn't really help, sorry.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6236208.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6236208.page GMT 1000 points 3 Eldar lists, first game in ages http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6237028.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562312/6237028.page GMT
