•This is the twelth of (hopefully) many competitions. This one is for 1,850 vs Necron Decurion. You should build a list designed to beat the below list in both Eternal War and Maelstrom missions.
•When writing the list, please make sure that it is legible and easy to read. Also please include the points total, plus a short break down of the tactics you plan on using with the list.
•All forces must be selected from the current Eldar codex only, so no fortifications or Forgeworld allowed. Also, the list must be Bound.
•The lists will be judged by the community, who will vote for the winner. When building and judging lists, please consider the following factors as being typical of a good list: adherence to the theme, competitiveness, ingenuity, quality of accompanying tactics, fun to play and minimal unit spamming
•From the time of this post, you have two weeks to write and submit an army list. Post your army list in a new thread on the Eldar board and link to that thread by replying to this thread. Please only use this thread for list submissions.
•After posting your list, you may edit it based on comments you receive from the community, but with restrictions. Any changes must be done to the original post in your army list thread. Reposting the list further in the thread will not be considered legitimate changes for the contest.
•To submit your army list, post a link to the thread you created in this thread. Please note, that once you do this you may not make any more changes to your army list! If your original post in your army list thread shows an edit time after the time you posted your submission, your submission will be disqualified.
•After the two weeks are up, Iris will post a poll with all of the submitted lists for the community to vote on.
•The poll will run for 1 week from the poll being posted, and the person with the most votes will be crowned the victor.
•I will create a new thread for every new contest that will be specifically for the submissions with any additional restrictions for that contest.
