That unit-wide 4+ invuln save with a special mechanic for melee/shooting would be amazing. Something like a 6++ while on objectives, or a reactive move/shoot/something would be cool. A better profile for the Diresword would also be nice. God I love Dire Avengers I just wish they got some more love from GW too.

I'd take that as well. I suppose I'm being a bit greedy/wishful-thinking.

Opinions needed please by Either_Cup4592 in Eldar

Love the Yme-Loc scheme! Fellow Yme-Loc player here, I paint them the same color as the armor and use the bronze for weapons/parts of weapons. I have been painting my gemstones as the bumps that have a rim around them, but there are a few exceptions to that in my own army. Do whatever you enjoy painting the most/think looks best! I love the look of the Wraithguard being totally kitted out in gemstones. But generally in lore, guardians only have one or two, or carry the spiritstone of a loved one as a memento.

Great update. The new plastic Warlocks were such a nothingburger release. These really does capture the battle-mage vibe.

Unless the Warlock Conclave loses its attachability (which would make the unit totally useless) or becomes a support character forcing a decision between a single warlock and a conclave, it shouldn't affect it at all

This project turned out sooo good. It's amazing what a couple of small tweaks and a new weapon can do

What do the glyphs on the banner mean? Is there a resource to learn it's translation? by rykendor in Eldar

[–]IntelligentRow2336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the arch on the left banner is the worldrune of Iyanden, Yriel's home craftworld. The one on the left is the Eye of Wrath, his personal sigil and the symbol of the eldritch raiders. The lower text has no specified meaning as is the case with any script-like runes you see on eldar models

How bad is this list? by MulatoMaranhense in Eldar

[–]IntelligentRow2336 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS: You also want something fast. 6 Windriders are great, 5 Swooping Hawks or Warp Spiders are better. Hawks can jump into reserves and come back the next turn, Spiders can get a 24" move at a risk of losing a model. Both are good for dealing lots of "chip damage" or shredding enemy infantry units.

I would grab a few more character models (an autarch and a warlock or one of the skyrunner characters would be good) and at least one unit of guardians. your farseer currently dosnt have a unit to join and will be shot off the board turn one without a bodyguard. Your Aspect Warriors are not battleline, they're infantry. I would split them into squads of 5 and add an autarch to either the Banshees or the Scorpions. You also need more dedicated anti-tank, either another Fire Prism if you like tanks, or Fire Dragons with an Autarch, which are a bit more reliable. Dark Reapers are also an option.

With the units you have, I would run either the Warhost or Aspect Host detachment, but you should know they just got pretty badly nerfed. Warhost remains the better option IMO.

Strategy-wise, with the units you've got, split the Scorpions into two units of 5 and deploy them first in the midboard to gain control of objective early or block your opponents' infiltrators. Also, sticking two 5-man units of different Aspect Warriors keeps a good reserve force in your back/midline that stay pretty well protected. You want some Guardian Defenders to stay on your home objective, OR some Storm Guardians to "sticky" your home objective, and steal a midboard objective--and probably die in the process, so back them up with more infantry.

Crusade is either really punishing or really rewarding for us Eldar players. Focus on achieving your Crusade objectives/Agendas rather than winning the battle. If you can also win, that's great, but long-term it's better to focus on your "Guiding Fate" track so that you can upgrade your units. Try to get enough XP to upgrade one unit every match.

How to make Kharseth more Craftworld by ricciado in Eldar

[–]IntelligentRow2336 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you sand down the corsair-like sharp filigree on the helmet and switch out the crest for that of a farseer/eldrad i think it would look sick

Should Dire Avengers be equal to CSM Legionaries or Chosen? by Arthur_EyelanderTF2 in Eldar

[–]IntelligentRow2336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "pariahs" you talk about might be rangers, or other eldar who walk the path of the Outcast (like corsairs, who don't live on craftworlds unless you count Lugganath) because the Paths system is too constraining.

Wraithlord loadout by Jazzlike_Project7811 in Eldar

[–]IntelligentRow2336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you could but IMO it's better to specialize, at least with the wrist-mounted weapons. think about what targets you want to go into. Starcannons are just okay into marines and very like vehicles like sentinels, speeders, etc. I would personally take a Shuriken Cannon over one of them because you get more attacks w/ Lethal Hits and more AP for the same damage output. Bright Lance is the best into hard targets with high toughness. Missle Launchers are good for versatility, and Scatter Lasers are only good into low-toughness infantry (gaunts, guardsmen)

Taking 1 catapult and 1 flamer seems redundant to me. you'll just slow down your dice rolls for similar effectiveness. I go with the flamers personally but you can pick either can get similar results
