<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it?"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it? 40k, and have a rather important question. I do not have a lot of money to spend on the, up front at least. So I went to craigslist, there I found a great deal on an eldar army, which was just what I was looking for. But my problem is that is is comprised of harlequins and eladar, so I'm not sure how that could work. I have heard of allies, but I'm not sure how that would work, and I expect I would need both codices. Also, if you would tell me weather the eldar army is worth it, thanks. The eldar army is assembled and painted, and he wants $130 for it. here's the list. Thanks in advance. - Josh

Next, despite the name, this part of the forum is for rules questions rather than polls or other questions (confusing, I know) - don't panic though, you can get the topic moved by attracting a moderator using the little yellow triangle next to the post.

Lastly, in an attempt to actually answer the question - yes, you would need both Codexes, but fortunetly you can easily add the Harlequins to the Craftworld Eldar using the Cast of Players formation (one Troupe, one Shadowseer and one Deathjester).

Totalling up everything it would cost $518 brand new, and even knocking half of that off for second hand it still looks like a great deal. It's not the most competative list though - but perfectly fine for starter / beginner / casual games.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753171.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753171.page GMT Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753225.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753225.page GMT Re:Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it?
Less, "friendly" levels of alliance exist, such as the animosity between Tyranids and, well, nearly everything, which would limit deployments if you included Tyranids and Space Marines in the same army for example.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753239.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753239.page GMT Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it? 40k in general for a while now, and I have seen troops "transported" in vehicles. does that require a specific vehicle, or can I use a tank for example.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753249.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753249.page GMT Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753254.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753254.page GMT Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it?

Actually, a little of both - there are tanks (like the Fire Prism) that cannot carry anyone, vehicles like Wave Serpents (CWE) and Starweavers (Harlies) who's main purpose is transporting units, and then things like Falcons (which are tanks that also have a small amount of transport space).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753304.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8753304.page GMT Re:Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it?
HQ: Farseer with singing spear and Spirit Stone of Anath'lan

Elites: 6 fire dragons with Exarch

Troops: 10 guardians with Brightlance

10 guardians with Starcannon

Fast Attack: 5 warp spiders with exarch

Heavy Support: Fire Prism with Shuriken Cannon and Holo-fields

Falcon with Scatter Laser and Shuriken Cannon and Spirit Stones

2 war walkers with Brightlances

I'd put the fire dragons in the Falcon and keep the Farseer with one of the units of guardians. You'll want to outflank the war walkers for some sweet side armour shots. You have plenty of anti-armour from the fire dragons, war walkers and the Brightlance guardians and fire prism can help too. You also have good anti infantry with the guardians, falcon, and fire prism. The warp spiders are simply fantastic and can deal with basically anything. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8758206.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8758206.page GMT Eldar and Harlequins Deal - Should I buy it?
And as explained harlies are easy to ally with so no problems there either ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8758266.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695529/8758266.page GMT
