2000 Point Eldar Corsair army list for review

Postby DoctorThunder » Sat Jan 26, 2008 9:42 pm

Okay, this list is designed to be fast and aggressive, as befitting pirates, with a strong emphasis on HTH combat. Everything is mounted either on a bike or in a tank, and the idea is to use the various units together in conjunction using short-ranged shooting followed up by HTH combat. So, for example, a strike against the heart of an enemy army would involve the dragons, tanks, bikes, and avengers softening up some units, followed up immediately by hth from the bikes to finish off the survivors, then consolidating into nearby enemy squads, tying them up, or behind cover out of LOS. The following turn, the harlequins would join in as well.

Basically, it is supposed to be about half way between a Mech Eldar list and a Siam-Hann jetbike army. The Autarch will go with the Guardian jetbikes, which get a HTH boost from their warlock, while the Farseer stays close to lend a hand with his powers. The combined punch between the Guardian Jetbikes lead by the autarch and the shining spears should be extremely deadly in HTH combat.

This army is about 2/3rds built at this point, but I wanted to see what others think before I finish assembling it and begin the painting process. Note: this army is not designed with any rumored 5th edition changes in mind. I'll worry about that after 5th edition is released.
