A few questions on a 'Remnant of Glory vs a psychic power'... Not a game changer perhaps, but still a curious one.
Suppose a Farseer has a Phoenix Gem. Now, said Farseer casts Death Mission on...
Unfortunately, no, they can't.
It's really feels almost like a return of 4th edition rules: if you want to make a decent use of your Farseer, you're pretty much forced to field him on foot or on a...
@ Demonus
Thanks for a great report.
However, are you sure that the game format was 1250? As far as I can see, the Eldar list adds up to 1305 points. Note that Crimson Hunter needs to be an...
The IG list in the vid is not the leafblower. It's basically just a big platoon supported by a couple of vendettas, a couple of LRs, one launcher thingie with 4 missiles on it (forgot the name) and...
Regarding IG - there's a video report on youtube, new eldar vs IG. See here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvoQGXFCnPI
The Eldar player got tabled by turn 6. Granted, he didn't seem to have any...
All set and ready to get flamed by a couple of Helldrakes or blasted to pieces by a couple of IG platoons.... :D But yeah, as a fun/fluff army it looks good. Fire prisms are more fitting than Walkers...
The new list looks a bit less focussed than the older one. Still, looks playable.
I'd make rangers 2x6 instead of 5 and 7, but that's just me :) Also, don't see much use in giving bikes a cannon....
@ Matthew David Townend
The overall approach to point costs that you suggested is great IMO. In fact, it's one of the best design concepts I ever saw, and I did see quite a few. In particular, I...
Don't forget that Multi-tracker (the item that allows a battle suite to fire 2 weapons) only works in Shooting phase. So Crisis suits are limited to just 1 weapon per model when firing overwatch....
That's a tough list, 100% tournament-worthy and quite well-playable as it is. I think you'll do well with it.
I can make a few minor comments though.
1. Exarchs are supposed to man quad-gun?...
I usually don't have enough terrain in my deployment zone to put SIX serpents in cover. Those Eldar tanks take a lot of real estate to deploy... I can get cover for 2-3, 4 at best, but 6? Not...
I see many interesting points about serpent-spam list were made here...
Hey Klaws,that's a nice list overall - but why Farseer? He has very few useful powers that can be used from inside a...
OK, maybe not that crazy... Or maybe stupid rather than crazy, lol. Anyway, here goes.
Autarch w/some minimal upgrades ~90pt
5 x Dire Avengers
- Wave Serpent (t/l scatter laser, extra...
I think Reapers are better left at home, unless you want them for fluff reasons or seriously like the models. Even though they were reduced in cost, they're still insanely expensive both without and...
What's the role of Hemlock in this list? Wouldn't a second Hunter be better?
Usability of 5-elf Dragon squads is somewhat doubtful...
If jetbikes are for last-minute objective grabbing, maybe...
Absolutely true. In fact, having an extra tank on the table, that gives you both extra firepower and another hull is almost always better than pretty much any expensive upgrades. That's why I like...
That's not true. They happened to make it work at times, and failed at that other times. For instance, HE and DE books in 6th edition of FB were both utter garbage. They actually had to errata half...
This.
BTW, in my experience it hardly played well before as well, this edition just emphasized the issues.
The so-called "Elite" army, as in "an army that is usually outnumbered but...
Thanks! I see now, good idea with the Farseer.
Could you elaborate, what was your list and where did you put your Farseer?
There's an old saying that goes like this: "All new ideas always struggle into our life in one and the same way: all those who oppose them gradually die out, and the new generations just take them...
IMHO, it's not quite that... In reality, a heavily over-working person is not able to be a good parent at the same time - it is true for both fathers and mothers alike. I actually believe that most...
Before I comment, here one curious general question to you people...
We all, hopefully, agree, that women and men are (or at least should be) essentially equal in their rights, but still are not...
It was a cool idea to blend two falcon rears.
And that Warp Hunter is bloody awesome!! Dual-cockpit is superb, and the whole model looks pretty much like a proper factory-cast kit. Fantastic job!
It's seriously cool. You could've used FW Scorpion chassi as a base model though :)
