Topic: Based on history and rumours - eldar host

[murgel]

ha, with the new codex now leaked what would your host be?

Mine will change only very slightly. I will lose the Avatar, at least it looks like that.

my centre will still be 2xAvengers supported by Guardians with platform.
on the flank will still be bikes but there will be less as I will no longer need 6 min but 4-5 will be enough.
Hawks will increase to 8 men, spiders stay the same.
Banshees will make a return and work with W-Blades again.

What dou you know that will happen to your list?

I think it will be the same list basically. The difference would be taking the aspect warriors as formations. I still haven't seen anything regarding the rangers or the reapers.
What I probably won't do is go out and buy wraiths nor jetbikes. They were not appealing to me before, and with the new found hatred for them, due to rulebuffs, it will be even worse.

Not entirely sure as the rumor mill is still a bit too salty for my taste, not to mention the bad taste in my mouth from needing to buy another codex and having the Iyanden book relegated to the bookshelf of unuse.

Nevertheless I'm totally going to find and dust off the old Falcons (unit of three Deepstriking sounds really nice to me), and I'm hoping to put the Banshees back on the table.  In fact I may even dust off Guardians or Storm Guardians since something is going to be in those Falcons, yeah returning to 3rd Ed roots! (Hrm, maybe not, haven't heard any rumors about Guardians going back to a min squad size of 5).

Not sure if I'm going to remodel the Jets though, tempted, but I also like the idea of having ablative wounds for heavy weapons.

Peace

We have been rather lenient on the wish-listing discussion, but that does not mean we are going to condone people constructing lists based on leaked information.

If you want to have this conversation, wait until the codex has been officially released on the 25th.
