List Building Competition: 1,750 Pheonix Lord
« on: October 9, 2017, 07:07:05 AM »
•This is the fourth of (hopefully) many competitions along these lines. This one is for a 1,750pt Matched Play Pheonix Lord all-comers list. You should build a list that has a Pheonix Lord as your Warlord, and includes at least 1 unit of your Warlord's Aspect. You should build a list designed to beat all comers 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 Index: Xenos 1 only (and no Necrons!), so no fortifications or Forgeworld allowed. Also, the list must be Battle-Forged.
•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, one of our friendly mods 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.

Sounds like a lot of fun! Phoenix lords seem like a lot of fun. I wonder if we will see a list for each one...

Phoenix Lord as warlord, does effectively mean no SfD, since the FAQ says Ynnari must have one of their 3 characters as the warlord?

I'm afraid so, yes.

So, what your saying is it's not your fault you look stupid by using words you don't get?
Flawless logic.

I know forge world is not normally allowed in these competitions but in the interest of the theme and possibly having all the Phoenix lords represented would it be possible to make an exception for Irillyth and his Shadow Specters if he is the warlord?

I prefer to keep it Forgeworld free, so that people only need the basic index in order to be able to participate, comment and vote.

I'm submitting my Fuegan / Fire Dragon list, and I'm not questioning the runes of fate that made it come out to 1750 exactly (although, the way I read the rules, I shouldn't have to pay 8 points for the Autarch shield generator, but for now I'll just work with battle scribe and HOPEFULLY our new codex will solve these rule problems.)

Enjoy! Comments/criticism always welcome. List building is an iterative, educational process.
