sultansean Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 So I've recently gone back to my Eldar and am still getting the hang of them. I'm tending to run what I think has become a fairly standard looking competitive eldar list. 1 Big Unit of Dark Reapers, 1 Big unit of Shining Spears, and then a couple Fire Prisms, a Gaurdian Blob, 2 Wave serpents. For my HQ's I have been using an Autrach on Bike, and then a Farseer and a Spiritseer or warlock, or both if I am running double battalions. So 3 Psykers, 2 with Runes of battle and 4 powers casting a turn. Now I see Mr. Nanavati's ATC list is running. 2 Farseers, a spiritseer, Warlock, Warlock Conclave, and Yvraine. Which can cast 9 powers a turn. He is really just powering up 3 killer units while I have a more smaller ones to try and use. So maybe that is significant difference but still he is investing a lot in HQ choices. Other than just a general discussion of competitive Eldar lists, my questions to the community is, are Eldar psykers really that good that it makes sense to focus so much of your army on them? For those Interested his list is: Battalion Detachment – Alaitoc HQ: Warlock HQ: Warlock Conclave – 2 Warlocks Troops: Guardian Defenders X 10 Troops: Rangers X 5 Troops: Rangers X 5 FA: Swooping Hawks X 5 Dedicated Transport: Wave Serpent, Shuriken Cannon, Twin Shuriken Cannon Dedicated Transport: Wave Serpent, Shuriken Cannon, Twin Shuriken Cannon Supreme Command – Aeldari Craftworlds – Mixed HQ: Spiritseer – Bieltan HQ: Farseer – Alaitoc HQ: Farseer – Alaitoc Outrider Detachment – Ynaari HQ: Yvraine FA: 9 Shining Spears, Exarch with Star Lance – Biel-Tan FA: 5 Swooping Hawks – Biel-Tan FA: 9 Shining Spears, Exarch with Star Lance – Saim-Hann Heavy: 8 Dark Reapers, Exarch with Tempest Launcher – Alaitoc Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/348999-how-many-psykers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astoran Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Pretty sure you cant mix craftworlds in the same detachments. You might have to look in to that. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/348999-how-many-psykers/#findComment-5127998 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sultansean Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 You can mix craftworlds in the same detachment, based on the "Asuryani" keyword. You just don't get the craft world benefits. But this list is doing it to get access to the craft world specific stratagems.
