I was going to have the farseers join eachother as a unit giving both of them shrouded and stealth. Then they would each take guide and prescience and a roll on telepathy to give most of my army re-rolls to hit.

What do you think? I've never used shadow weavers before are they any good? I'll probably be guiding them so they can snipe at back armor and such]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7477736.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7477736.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - 1750
I would take off the 2nd farseer, and instead give yourself a warlock council with 2 warlocks. Put one Warlock with the Support Weapon battery, and another with the Jetbikes.

the Warlock with the Support Battery gives a 2+ Jinking T7 Unit which is hilarious.

Id probably give the War Walkers Bright Lances instead of starcannons as your long range high str shooting is bad.

On the contrary it's refreshing to see an eldar comp list that isn't just minimum avenger squads in serpents being escorted by as many wraithknights as can be fit in the points lol...


Aha thanks! I was talking specifically about pairing the farseers when one has the mantle lol

I find wraithcannons aren't reliable enough without spiritmark. They usually let me down pretty good. Although that's just because I have bad luck. I like the d-scythes in the serpent paired with the guardians in a serpent because I pop them out in the same turn and wipe or cripple two key units which often leads to a victory for me. The scythes reliably kill anything without a storm shield]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7484115.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7484115.page GMT Re:[1750] - Eldar - 1750 Also I like giving a warlock to my jetbikes just for the shrouded, same with the support batteries.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7485118.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7485118.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - 1750

no that isnt correct. If you bring a farseer with mantle to a tournament and put it with something your cheating.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7486093.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7486093.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - 1750

Mantle of the Laughing God; The bearer loses the Independent Character special rule but has the Hit & Run, Shrouded and Stealth special rules. In addition the bearer can reroll failed cover saves.

Nowhere in there does it mention disallowing another IC to join him. So please explain how that is cheating. As I said it's not the intention of the relic, but it's still legal.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7486797.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7486797.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - 1750

That would be fine but I dont really get having a 2 farseer unit. If you encounter anything that ignores cover it would be unfortunate. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7489042.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7489042.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - 1750 lol. (With bad invulns) I wouldn't myself try it, I barely like using the mantle in the first place. I just don't trust the reliance on cover with no look out sir cushion]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7489885.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7489885.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - 1750

This is correct. The Mantle prevents the first seer from joining anything. But nothing prevents the second seer or any other IC from joining the first seer. Totally legal. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7490722.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/629784/7490722.page GMT
