The idea is to have all the guardians in serpents. Wraithlord and Reapers sit up the back doing what they do best. The farseer skyrunner and windriders move around the edges dooming targets. Scorpians arrive when needed to deal with what ever threat they can manage preferably after a guardian squad has opened up on them to increase the scorpians chances.

I haven't played since 3rd/4th edition so hopefully I haven't missed something of importance.

Please let me know what you think and how I could make this more competitive.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728975/9433423.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728975/9433423.page GMT SC are a waste on a serpent though - a lot of points for 9 shots str 6 1 D) At least they will be very hard to kill.

Wraithlord I think is much better than it was in 7th but keep in mind that it will be shooting it's bright lances at -1 bs as it moves towards the enemy. If you just wanted some backfield firepower a Warwalker would probably be a better choice.

A footseer will probably work better in this list as your seer has basically one job here (buffing you DR) So he doesn't need that high price tag for mobility.

So you are at -30 points for those vectored engines - so you have 41 points to spare if you did nothing else. Maybe Consider upgrading some BL to Star Cannon? (they are awesome in this edition) Or give your DR exarch a Tempest launcher (it's very good anti infantry and that is what this army lacks)

I agree with xenomancer about your wraithlord and farseer. War walkers are just better at shooting than wraithlords; and with the new rules for characters your farseer should be fine on foot or in a wave serpent

The other question i've been asking myself is are scorpions going to be as effective as a squad of banshees or wraithblades would be? any ideas?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728975/9434554.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728975/9434554.page GMT
