So I was able to restore my old airbrush and got the idea to paint some of the Space Elves again and have decided that I want to paint some wraith units together with Swooping Hawks (Dark Eldar Scourges).

As such I have conducted an army who I think will be fun to play and fairly balanced.

I am going with a Craftworld Warhost with a pale court to make shure I just get the models I want.
I am hoping my "Tax" on some sub optimal units will be enough to balance the D.

As it stands, I'm not that sold about the Wraithblades but with the Deliverence spell from the Wraithseer giving them feel no pain will make you need 53 bolter shots or about 4.5 Plasma Shots to kill just one. That is fun to me


Craftworld Warhost

Core: Pale Court. Traits: Tomb ship of fallen heroes, Aspect Warrior Shrine

Wraithseer: D cannon 245.p

6x Swooping Hawks: Exarch 106.p

6x Swooping Hawks: Exarch 106.p

6x Swooping Hawks: Exarch 106.p

Auxiliary: Spirit Hoast

Spiritseer: 70

10x Wraithblades: Axe, Shield 300.p

5x Wraithguard 160.p

5x Wraithguard 160.p

Wraithlord: 2x Scatter Lasers 150.p

Skathach Wraithknight: 315.p

1748.p

SO what do you think?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9102817.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9102817.page GMT Re:[1750] - Eldar - Uncheesy Craftworld Warhost with Wraith Army with Wraiths, Wraiths, more Wraiths and Swooping Hawks http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9103971.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9103971.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - Uncheesy Craftworld Warhost with Wraith Army with Wraiths, Wraiths, more Wraiths and Swooping Hawks http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9104039.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9104039.page GMT [1750] - Eldar - Uncheesy Craftworld Warhost with Wraith Army with Wraiths, Wraiths, more Wraiths and Swooping Hawks WG makes them Tax units. Plus, the WL is a tax unit, if still a good one. And WratihBlades only have 1 atk each. Hardly a CC deathstar.
Really the entire Wraithhost is a tax for the WK.
Which, BTW, I hope that WK has the Inferno Lances because otherwise you have NO way to deal with AV on turn 1. But I assume it actually is the Deathshroud WK since that seems more common

A sub-optimal DE list would tear through his army, as would an Ork Horde. Considering those are 2 of the worst armies right, now, I'd say this is far from a competitive Eldar list, yet would still be fun to play
I might drop the WB to 5 only and get 1 Serpent for the WG

If you want to expand at all in the future I'd recommend baharroth for the wraithblades to tank hits and give them hit and run to make use of their rage special rule. Due to their slow speed, they don't often get to do the charging :( he also fits your swooping hawk theme.

Not sure what loadout your scathach wraithknight has but I'd recommend scattershield/deathshroud cannon or double deathshroud]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9104232.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712456/9104232.page GMT
