I absolutely love reaver lists, and am rather sad I can't take an archon on a bike anymore. I will probably eventually do a combined eldar/true Kin with an auctuarch (sp?) on a bike wishing he was an archon
But I am extremely interested in what this new book will give us too...
OK, here is the updated list. First off, I had somehow overlook the real space raiders formation...
So, here it goes
HQ
Archon with shadow field, agonized, and parasite kiss (135)
Troops
10 warriors in a raider with dark Lance and splinter racks (115)
10 warriors in a raider with dark Lance and splinter racks (115)
Elites
5 mandrakes (60)
5 true born with 4 blasters in a raider with dark Lance and advanced sails (180)
4 Incubui with a klavex and demi blades in a venom with a splinter Cannon (160)
Fast attack
Razor wing with 2 dark Lance's and a night shield (155)
Razor wing with 2 dark Lance's and a night shield (155)
3 reavers with a blaster and cluster caltrops (73)
3 reavers with a blaster and cluster caltrops (73)
3 reavers with a blaster and cluster caltrops (73)
3 reavers with a blaster and cluster caltrops (73)
Heavy attack
Ravanger with 3 dark Lance's (125)
If I added that all up (and calculated each unit) correctly, that is 1494 pts.
It's a list I like a lot. Lots of small units, death of a thousand cuts. It means I'll have to buy a few more models (I currently only have 6 bikes lol) but not a whole lot. And, I still get to keep my two planes, which makes me very happy.
I know it's a bit light on troops, but it should be decent enough since almost any unit now can capture. I may have to add some more troops latter on, but we shall see.
