    Default 2000pt Harlequin Crone World Raid list

    A'ight, I've drawn up a prelimary list for a Harlequin and Ranger theme list, the sort of force you might see travelling to a Crone World as per Path of the Outcast.

    Farseer
    Runes of Witnessing, Spirit Stones, Runes of Warding Guide, Fortune

    10 Harlequins
    8 Kisses, 2x fusion pistols, Troupe Master, Death Jester, Shadowseer

    10 Harlequins
    8 Kisses, 2 fusion pistols, Death Jester, Shadowseer

    10 Harlequins
    8 Kisses, 2 fusion pistols, Death Jester, Shadowseer

    8 Pathfinders

    7 Rangers

    7 Rangers

    6 Rangers

    3 Vypers
    Scatter lasers

    Fire Prism

    3 War Walkers
    Scatter lasers

    1988 points.

    I've not given a great deal of thought as to how it would play, I guess the farseer would baby sit the Pathfinders with guide and fortune on those lovely 2+ cover saves. Everything else kills stuff. Lots of rending attacks, decent bit of S5-6 fire, surprising amount of S8 AP1 Melta goodness and a Fire Prism for a little extra punch now that blasts aren't a liability.

    There is only one troupe leader because it represents one Harlequin troupe.

    Opinions?

    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    Seems like a fun time. Its lot of cover saves. I'd be tempted to take a Warp Hunter over a Fire Prism so everything is hiding, but thats just me

    Another things thats my prference would be putting the walkers in seperate squads, to maximise some survivabiltiy.

    Is a Death Jester necesary in every squad? He needs to be standing to shoot, and i'd imagine they won't be stationary for long

    Heres hoping for a Solitaire HQ choice in the future....

    Could take Corsair or DE allies to match Outcast a little more....

    It looks like it would look good.

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    It's a really balanced list, lots of anti-everything. Nice.

    The only issue that I can see is mobility and objective scoring.

    bear with me as i've had nothing to do with eldar since I last played against them under 2nd

    As a scouting force would it be fluffy to swap out the war walkers with jet bikes/ vypers? or would the points be too expensive?

    ...****, pasted in the draft list. Hold on I'll fix it.

    Fixed.

    I was thinking about the Warp Hunter myself, but then I thought would it really be fitting for them to be tearing holes in into the warp on a Crone World? Shrieker cannon is Assault 3 so he should be able to pewpewpew stuff before charging in with the others?

    War walkers are used as scouts too so I thought they would be sutiable, the finalised list included both though.
