Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 08-04-2015 Hey guys, Just thought I'd start a thread so we can start sharing our battle plans and lists.. What are people looking to take? My list for War of the Roses in may is: Eldar CAD: HQ1: Farseer – Jetbike – (Warlord) HQ2: Farseer – Jetbike, Spiritstone of Anath'Lan, Mantle of the Laughing God HQ0: 5 Warlocks – 5 Jetbikes Troop1: 5 Dire Avengers (Transport1) Troop2: 5 Dire Avengers (Transport2) Troop3: 5 Dire Avengers (Transport3) Heavy1: Wraithknight – Heavy Wraithcannons Heavy2: Wraithknight – Heavy Wraithcannons Transport1: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser Transport2: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser Transport3: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser Inquisition Detachment: HQ1: Xenos Inquisitor – Psyker lvl1, 3 Servo Skulls, Force Sword Elite1: Warband: 2 Acolytes, 1 Psyker (Transport1) Elite1: Warband: 2 Acolytes, 1 Psyker (Transport2) Elite1: Warband: 2 Acolytes, 1 Psyker (Transport3) Transport1: Chimera – Turret Multilaser, Hull Heavy Flamer Transport2: Chimera – Turret Heavy Bolter, Hull Heavy Bolter, Searchlight, Psybolt Ammo Transport3: Razorback – TL Heavy Bolter, Psybolt Ammo, Searchlight Total: [1850] I don't plan on changing it before Cally.. 15 Warp Charge to start the game with and the aim is to Summon a Daemon army by turn3 while whittling down the enemy with 3 Serpents, 2 Chimeras and a Razorback shooting into anything threatening or Obsec RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Nick1988 - 08-04-2015 I have purchased the models for.... Cad Nemesor Zahndrekh 150 Vargard Obyron 120 10 Warriors 130 • Ghost Ark 105 10 Warriors 130 • Ghost Ark 105 3 Canoptek Scarabs 60 6 Canoptek Wraiths: 6× Whip Coils; 6× Transdimensional Beamer 318 6 Destroyers: Heavy Destroyer 250 1 Canoptek Spyder: Fabricator Claw Array 55 Royal court Overlord: Solar Staff; Phase Shifter 120 Destroyer Lord: Veil of Darkness; Resurrection Orb; Phase Shifter 185 Orikan the Diviner 120 1,848 points Basic idea is the characters split into the wraith and destroyer units and teleport to the centre of the board via Oberon and the veil. The rest just sits back and moves onto objectives later in the game. For anyone that hasn't played a tournament in 7th they use both eternal war and maelstrom missions so taking a few fast moving units ie jet bikes and skimmer to start building your maelstrom points as early as possible is a big help! RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 08-04-2015 Board dominance is key in my opinion, like Nicks death star (s), it can deter the enemy from moving into key areas of the board. My army does this through weight of fire power from MSU units and summoned Daemons. I strongly suggest people get there heads around the missions, the scoring looks complex, but after a game or two, it will become second nature. RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jjakaalbinoboy - 08-04-2015 My list is a work in progress just now but so far I've got.... Eldar CAD: HQ1: Autarch - Banshee Mask, Power Weapon HQ2: Farseer Troop1: 5 Dire Avengers (Transport1) Troop2: 5 Dire Avengers (Transport2) Troop3: 10 Guardian Defenders (Transport3) Troop4: 10 Guardian Defenders (Transport4) Elite1: 5 Howling Banshees Elite2: 5 Striking Scorpions Fast1: Crimson Hunter Fast2: 2 Hornets - Pulse Lasers Heavy1: Falcon – Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Heavy2: Falcon – Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport1: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport2: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport3: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport4: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Total: [1790] RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 08-04-2015 Interesting list, I would split the Hornets up into 2 units of 1, better distribution of fire power. Put the Scorpions in a Wave Serpent so you can infiltrate it (the squad has infiltrate so its given to a dedicated transport, (same as the Warlord trait.. give it to the unit and the dedicated transports benefit) Falcons won't benefit from it or any traits) Put 5 Dire Avengers in a Falcon to make it Obsec while the Avengers are mounted, plus that likely to be hanging back anyway. I'm not keen on Banshees... I would personally like to see some Fire Dragons also a Fusion gun on the Autarch please. Other than those minor tweaks.. top list IMO RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - nothin_but_the_rain - 08-04-2015 Here are my first thoughts on a Dark Eldar list: CAD: HQ1: Archon - Blaster, Web Way Portal Elite1: 5 Kabalite Trueborn - Dracon, Blast Pistol, 4 Blasters (Transport1) Troop1: 10 Kabalite Warriors (Transport2) Troop2: 10 Kabalite Warriors (Transport3) Troop3: 10 Kabalite Warriors (Transport4) Troop4: 5 Kabalite Warriors, Blaster (Transport5) Troop5: 5 Kabalite Warriors, Blaster (Transport6) FA1: 9 Reavers - Arena Champion, Agoniser, 3 Cluster Caltrops FA2: 3 Reavers - Heat Lance FA3: 3 Reavers - Heat Lance HS1: Ravager - 3 Dark Lances, Nightshields HS2: Ravager - 3 Dark Lances, Nightshields HS3: Ravager - 3 Dark Lances, Nightshields Transport1: Raider - Dark Lance, Nightshields Transport2: Raider - Dark Lance, Nightshields, Splinter Racks, Enhanced Aethersails Transport3: Raider - Dark Lance, Nightshields, Splinter Racks, Enhanced Aethersails Transport4: Raider - Dark Lance, Nightshields, Splinter Racks, Enhanced Aethersails Transport5: Venom - Additional Splinter Cannon Transport6: Venom - Additional Splinter Cannon Total: 1850pts RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jjakaalbinoboy - 08-04-2015 (08-04-2015, 05:15 PM)Embolden Wrote: Interesting list, I would split the Hornets up into 2 units of 1, better distribution of fire power. Haha thanks Rob. "interesting list" - Read: Crap list. lol. It's based around the models I own to be honest. I don't have the Scorpions or 2nd Hornet yet though. Cheers for the ideas, I'll have a think.... Eldar CAD: HQ1: Autarch - Fusion Gun HQ2: Farseer Troop1: 5 Dire Avengers Troop2: 5 Dire Avengers Troop3: 10 Guardian Defenders (Transport3) Troop4: 10 Guardian Defenders (Transport4) Elite1: 5 Fire Dragons (Transport1) Elite2: 5 Striking Scorpions (Transport2) Fast1: Crimson Hunter Fast2: Hornet - Pulse Laser Fast3: Hornet - Pulse Laser Heavy1: Falcon – Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Heavy2: Falcon – Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport1: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport2: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport3: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Transport4: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon Total: [1815] RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jaqenhgar - 08-04-2015 Nice looking lists so far, looking totally nasty to face. I am still having a think and can't decide between dark Eldar or necrons. Will post a list when I have had a think. Also never played any maelstrom missions so really need to get some practice in! RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 08-04-2015 Not crap JJ, honestly. I like it! 4 serpents, Crimson hunter and 2 Falcons is solid fire power!! Just to check.. It is a crimson hunter exarch with Bright lances right? Not forgetting the hornets and infantry as well. What weapon platforms are the guardians rocking? Also what powers are you looking for on the farseer? RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jjakaalbinoboy - 08-04-2015 (08-04-2015, 09:39 PM)Embolden Wrote: Not crap JJ, honestly. I like it! 4 serpents, Crimson hunter and 2 Falcons is solid fire power!! You think it's worth paying for the Crimson hunter exarch? No points for weapons platforms really, I'd normally give them Shuriken Cannons or Starcannons though. With the Farseer I just kind of play it by ear. Usually Doom and Guide I guess. |
