http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net GW FAQ, the Iyanden supplement is still perfectly legal to use.

I like what this offers me - the chance to take the wraith forge stone again, the chance to use voice of twilight, and the ability to make a wraithknight my warlord and have him become a character.

So, I went to battlescribe and came up with this!

Craftworld eldar, Iyanden supplement - CAD

HQ - Farseer, jetbike
HQ - Spiritseer, Wraithforge stone (this might be better placed on the bike seer to keep up with the knight....)

Elites - 5x Wraithguard, D-Scythes, Wave Serpent with TL SL & SC, Ghostwalk matrix
Elites - 5x Fire dragons including exarch, Wave Serpent with TL SL & SC.

Troops - 3x scatter bikes
Troops - 3x scatter bikes
Troops - 4x shuriken cannon bikes

Fast attack - Vyper, 2x SC (contemplating swapping for a warlock squad leader, not sure)

Heavy Support - 2x fire prisms
Heavy Support - Wraithlord, 2x Flamers, bright lance

Lord of War - Wraithknight, sword & shield, 2x star cannons.

It's 1850 on the nose. It's kind of themed the way I want it and I reckon it's competitive. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8768187.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8768187.page GMT
The only downside to the list is your lack of ObSec troops. Sure Windriders are amazing and can hide, but there are a surprising number of armies that can wipe all 10 of those bike in 1 turn. Any Drop Pod themed list will force you to reserve all your bikes or lose them on the drop, then where will you Farseer be? Nids have a surprising amount of units that can kill 3 bikes at range in 1 turn: Dakka Flyrant, Fexes, Devilgaunts in Pods, etc.

I'm not saying to add more Bikes, or to trade for more Troops, I'm just saying to be aware of their weaknesses.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8768377.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8768377.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8768430.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8768430.page GMT
Drop the wraithlord. Just do it. I know the wraithlord is fluffy and seems fun to play but it sucks. It's too slow and has almost no damage output -- especially when you compare it to the wraithknight (it's stat line is equivalent to literally stacking 2 wraithlords on top of eachother) but the wraithknight can move 12" and actually kill things in close combat with Str-D

I would consider dropping the wraithlord, vyper, and one of the fire prisms to bring another wraithknight. I know you're trying to get away from spamming but another wraithknight would still be fluffy since your doing a saim hann/Iyanden warhost right?

Also: definitely switch over that wraithforge stone to the farseer and add the ghostwalk matrix to both wave serpents. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8769167.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8769167.page GMT CAD. So only 1 Lord of war slot. To get a second Knight in it means major list changing. And the idea is to take what people consider sub optimal lists and still do well.

If I WAS to drop the Lord and the vyper, I would replace them with a pair of night spinners, and then add ghost walk to the dragons serpent with the remaining 10 points. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8769367.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/696238/8769367.page GMT
