quadgun

The warlocks go in the batteries, behind the ADL. The commander jumps between batteries buffing them. The Farseer buffs the riptide to over or nova charge.
and/or batteries.

A random Warlock mans the quadgun.

Laughing seer laughs at the back passing out guide/prescience as the local drug dealer.

It occured to me, upon discussion with a freind, that 3 vibro cannons is more effective and cheaper than 3 railgun broadsides, especially in the killing vehicles department. They're even better when that Tau commander jumps in to teach them how to shoot. Or the barrage of 3 D-cannon's that ignore cover saves and are twin linked with tank hunters?

Kroot outflank, to do what kroot do.

Riptide does what riptide does, as well as wave serpents.

Thoughts?

much as i like the new eldar artillery, they are very static and you cannot rely on warlock powers... they will fail the minute it is critical !
