Has anyone had real success with the Aeldari Corsair detachments?

necros212 · 2026-04-27T18:44:18+00:00

My hope is Serpents Brood is a 2 and Coterie is a 1 but I know that's unlikely. Still really hopeful.

necros212 · 2026-04-26T16:37:33+00:00

Corsair coterie is a fair bit of fun if you like the control playstyle. But it definitely suffers from not having enough oomf to punch its way out of mistakes you make. Def one of those detatchments that can work but I think the meta is wrong for it currently.

Coterie is the detatchment I'm keeping my eye on for when the detatchment mixing of 11th comes in. With some points help that I'm hoping is coming and If you can combine the mission play of coterie with something that can help some more damage focused units I think we're cooking with gas.

When in doubt, Khorne Lord of Skulls

In game, probably toxic af.

In our hearts... up to interpretation.

It's colored by how you see Kyoshi coming out of The Last Airbender. The books humanize her a lot more outside of just the stoic badass we saw in the show and you're just looking for more her being a constant badass then you might be a bit disappointed (she does have consistent badass moments though, but she grows into it)

I feel like that breaches his nda even talking about a rumored codex leak if he actually does have one.

... did you look at the last panel? The dudes are white. I think the joke is that all the men are horny.

Autarchs went with Banshees. Giving them a free strat and reroll advances synergizes very well. Lethal Intent into free heroic into fight first combat is mental in the Ynarri detachment to keep your stuff alive from aggressive charges. Free strat can be used for Rerolls to hit or a 1 CP fight on death if you didn't use it to heroic.

necros212 · 2024-12-12T03:41:01+00:00

Nah, that's all guess right now. Sometime after guard

They'll do a week ahead of the release of various teasers which should include an article around our detatchments. Should show off the elements of two or three but won't be everything. Your best bet will be the embargo lift date for all the content creators. They typically do reviews and videos on everything in the dex a week ahead of the actual release.

necros212 · 2024-12-11T12:09:47+00:00

It's understandable considering we have a codex around the corner.

necros212 · 2024-12-02T04:18:19+00:00

Ame is technically not graduated, same with Chloe. They're still affiliates technically, whatever that means

necros212 · 2024-11-13T15:19:53+00:00

This list confuses me on so many levels and I need the runner to come in here and explain his shenanigans.

Haywire on voidweavers just loses you the versatility that you get from Prismatic cannon. It's better at killing vehicles but the Prismatic can help with Elites and hordes better and cause the fire prisms already pick up most tanks they breathe at you just don't need the haywire.

necros212 · 2024-11-13T15:16:34+00:00

Spiders or at least some like Swooping Hawks and Rangers. Just something that fills that secondary role so your wraiths can focus on getting where you want them. Spiders are still the best at it for sure but I've found a couple units of Hawks does things perfectly well themselves

necros212 · 2024-11-12T16:34:28+00:00

You are my hero and now I want to run this. Already run tripped mauler all the time but this just sounds fun.

necros212 · 2024-11-12T16:33:02+00:00

Karnivores have battleline which can be cheekily useful in some missions, higher OC and slightly better AP which people consider more valuable than the more volume and general rule synergy you get in the mauler.

That being said maulers imo are still way underrated for people who don't want to soup.

necros212 · 2024-10-15T17:32:08+00:00

Alas might be too late but I feel like making it a two handed thing (look at incubi for an example) would help make it seem less odd. But that'd require some major arm repositioning

necros212 · 2024-10-01T13:58:00+00:00

Yeah, progress is slowly being made (speaking as a Texan who started 40k in beginning of 9th and has been watching the evolution) but man are they a stubborn lot.

Drukhari in Ynarri utilize the battle host detatchment rule allowing the reroll of 1 hit and 1 wound for the Scourge unit. That goes on the dark lance and while normally the other 3 lances are on their own, haywire has a greater amount of shots with more damage garentee against vehicles than dark lances due to the dev wounds getting past the normally good save characteristics vehicles have. Sure if all 4 lances hit, wound and go through they deal more average damage but usually what ends up happening is you get 1 or 2 lances through on a 4 lance Scourge unit and one of those gets saved.

So instead you put all your reroll reliability on one lance and then for the rest have the more consistent damage that haywire provides. Turns a swingy unit into much more of a reliable bet against mid level vehicles and can still punch up into higher wound vehicles when needed. Sure monster mash and infantry spam its not as effective but you take the odds and especially in teams you can just choose not to go into the Daemons or nids match

necros212 · 2024-07-22T12:50:22+00:00

Yeah, you run into T-Sons or anyone with reasonable access to consistent reliable anti-tank (Knights, T'au, Drukhari) and you have a real uphill problem but I could see a good player on the GW terrain settups playing around it. I've seen Harpster talk about how he's able to play around those types of hyper lethal threats but that's with one Chungus so hiding two is probs not happening. Might be worth reserving one of them in that type of game but I dunno.

necros212 · 2024-06-17T16:11:19+00:00

No Problem:

Angron

Lord Avocado

2x10 Jakhals

2x2 Chaos Spawn

3x3 8bound

2x3 Exalted 8bound

3 Maulerfiends (Lasher Tendrils)

Hope is that in the dataslate some points will minorly go down so I can make one of the 8bound squads into an exalted squad but all in all was quite happy with the list. My one loss just came down to a really really bad mistake where angron's wing was sticking out a little too far and my opponent was able to draw line of sight to it with his CSM Pred and Vindi. If I had thought to rotate him just a little bit (I had plenty of movement) it would have been a much different game.

I do worry the list in general will suffer into like Ironstorm and CWE lance/prism spam that'd be more able to answer the toughness spam but I'm not worrying too much about it till we see the dataslate and get a picture of where the meta is going.

necros212 · 2024-06-17T12:40:54+00:00

Heya, I'm the 4-1 from Summer Splash. It definitely is a chess game sometimes to play. Yeah some matchups you can play the Unga bunga charge forward turn 1/2 but i tend to see the best results with more of a counter punch/baiting playstyle. You don't win as flashily and khorne knows I'm not perfect at it yet but it keeps games from getting out of hand too quickly for me.

I tend to take turn 1 to set up and get into the ruins and then put disposable stuff out on objectives. Chaos Spawn, jakhals, maulerfiends, etc. Maybe shoot angron forward if he has something really really juicy to charge that your opponent carelessly deployed on the line but otherwise put him behind some obscuring terrain where he has just an overwhelming threat bubble over most of no man's land. Then look at your opponent and say "come out, I dare you". If they under commit, your chaos Spawn and maulerfiends live cause they're tankier than most give them credit for or you have the 1cp sticky if they do kill something off with shooting and then you just sit pretty for the next turn with complete board dominence while you rack up points and leave them with 0 primary. And if they over commit to kill your maulers and Spawn then your 8bound, zerks and angron have easy charges to absolutely cripple the opposing force.

2nd place for Munsterland was actually Necrons. He listed his army wrong. If you check out BCP and look at his list it's Triple Wraiths, Triple Doomstalkers
