The Hammer of The Gods - Corsair Force

Postby DaBoss » Mon Jan 23, 2012 10:07 am

Finally got the latest Forgeworld Book - Volume 11 Doom of Mymeara

Was very excited as I'm planning on taking Eldar (along with the rest of the guys to form a faction)
The Eldar Corsair list is very interesting with lots of cool units.

But my interest is in the ability to use Harlequins, especially as a 5 man unit can take Corsair Venom's.

So I looked to see what kind of force I could build for the above Campaign weekend.
First Force is a SkyHook Mission; Normal FOC except the only complusory is a HQ
Also - special rules about being on an unstable platorm, most models will scatter each turn by 1d6 to 3d6 inches in a random direction; if this takes them off the table they are casualties as they fall off the platform.
So the order of the day is to take Skimmers and Jump Troops where possible.
(Harlequins ignore terrain effects so been ruled as ignoring the unstable platform rule)

Corsair Skyhook 1000pts
HQ - Corsair Prince, Void Sabre, Shadowfield, Melta Bombs
Blood Sworn Retinue (2), Power Weapons, Melta Bombs
Corsair Venom, Starcannon, Holo-fields, Spiritstones
328pts

Elite 1 - Harlequin Troupe (5), Troupe Master, Death Jester, 2 x Fusion Pistols
Corsair Venom, Starcannon, Holo-fields, Spiritstones
250pts

Elite 2 - Harlequin Troupe (5), Troupe Master, Death Jester, 2 x Fusion Pistols
Corsair Venom, Starcannon, Holo-fields, Spiritstones
250pts

Troop 1 - Corsair JetBike Squadron (6), 2 x Shuriken Cannon upgrade
170pts

So my whole force is mounted in skimmers and if need be jump off and assault.

Then we have the 4000pts Heavy Assault Force: FOC is doubled but still only requires complusory HQ and 2 Troops.
So take my SkyHook force and drop 3 Jetbikes -85pts

And add
Troop 2 - Corsair Squad (5), Eldar Missile Launcher
60pts

Elite 3 - Harlequin Troupe (10), Troupe Master, Shadowseer, Death Jester, 5 x Harlequin Kiss
260pts

Elite 4 - Harlequin Troupe (10), Troupe Master, Shadowseer, Death Jester, 5 x Harlequin Kiss
260pts

Heavy Support - Eldar Phantom Titan
2500pts

So Total of 3993pts

Got to love this Big Bad Boy - 3+ Invulnerable if it moved, 6's to be hit in CC, drops 4 x 5" D Templates and 1 x 10" D Template each turn along with it's secondary weapons.

I am short on scoring units, but plan on destorying the opponents heavy armour and scoring units for the win.
Plus just love to finally get him on the table with some of my Harlequins...

So Co-Faction guys, it looks like I have a spare Revenant Titan that some one could use?

That's a deal - use of Revenant Titan for it being painted.

Now I just need to buy 3 Venom's, paint them and finish painting the Phantom Titan.....
