Topic: Outpointed emperors children VS. Eldar (with a DA tac squad)

[Dark Flame]

  The other day I was at my local gaming place, and two noobs (who were realy annoying, one had gotten all his stuff for his birthday and didn't have full squads, so i lent him some Eldar minatures, and the other had been collecting for 4 days, and assumed he knew everything about 40K) challenged me, assuming they would win.  They wanted to play my Chaos army, and I only had 12 models here.  I borowed 5 termies with lightning claws from a frien and set up this army list (and I am aware of how extremly bad it is, it is just that that is all I had at the time and I had to beef it up to reach 1000 points):

          Mark of Slaanesh, bolt pistol, dark blade, terminator armour, deamonic mutation, deamonic resilience, deamonic strength, combat drugs.

Elites:  5 man chosen retinue (420)

                 Aspiring champion
                   Deamonic strength, master crafted power weapon, bolt pistol, spiky bits
                     Rhino
                       Dozer blade, extra armour, mutated hual, warp amp, blasphemous rune

17 models, 990 points

Their list (I can't find my eldar codex and don't have the swooping hawk point values):

                 Scorpions claw, crushing blow
