need tactics aganst eldar and chaos
« on: March 9, 2007, 09:34:39 PM »
i play most of my game against my friend at his house and he has been playing for about a year more than i have. he has massive chaos and eldar army's, and he almost always beats me(we mostly play very small games), i doesn't matter who which army he uses, he always knows exactly what to do to beat me.

     Any advice would be appreciated. thanks.

Whats the army list you usually use against your friend and what list does he usually use?
What models do you have?

Destroyers are good, so are immortals they put out alot of firepower, what points cost do you usually play?

 we usually play small games(700pts), and my list is usually.

       lord:scythe, res orb
       19 warriors
       5 scarab swarms
       6 immortals
       1 wraith

   this list is 705 pts and it is all i really have right now. as for my friend i cant really tell because he uses a different type every time.

Well for a start you'll need to have twenty warriors to fill the compulsory two troop choices. I would take away the wraith- for the extra warrior.

Also it would probably be better to play 750pts as your more likely to play a game with someone with 750pts than 700pts. The points battle usually go from 440pts, 500pts, 750pts, 1000pts, 1500pts, 1750pts........

For eldar, since most of the eldar aspect warriors and the guardians only have a 4+ save or worse, I would use

Necron Lord   100pts

10x Warriors    180pts

10x Warriors   180pts

5x Immortals    140pts

5x Immortals   140pts

Some nice AP 4 goodness plus the immortals will be wounding most eldar on a 2+  ;D

If you don't have the models- you can proxy. Experiment with lists till you find one you like :)
