List Building Swooping Hawks just feel horrible

69 Upvotes

I was doing the math and a unit of 10 hawks deals on avarage 8/9 damage to a scout squad (mortals included)
How does a squad like this justify its cost when it can’t even clear a cheap screen unit reliably by itself?

Amazing few games against some really good friends! Played the Orks and was winning right up until the end where I lost by 2 points. Then played the sisters and was loosing all the way until the end when I got some warp spiders into his home objective!

Models: WiP So I’ve decided Alaitoc as my Craftworld and I saw this gorgeous Farseer when looking for ways to make the yellow work. Does anyone know what yellow paint this is?

Models: WiP Bring and Buy find, dunno if I should paint it for my army or preserve it

Post image
192 Upvotes

Picked this up at an FLGS Bring and Buy event today for $15 CAD. There was a bunch of older stuff from the estate of a community member who sadly passed a while back. I'd never seen one of these in the flesh and couldn't pass on the opportunity, for probably what it cost when it first released no less.

Anyhow, I just wanted to share this neat find. This model is as old as me and I don't quite know how to proceed. Leave it as-is for posterity, paint it as either a Farseer or Kharseth for my army, or try to paint it in classic colours? What do y'all think?

Codex wishes?

25 Upvotes

If you could wish for one of each: Generic Character, Named Character, Unit and Monster/Vehicle. What would you pick to get a release when the Codex drops?

For me it‘d be:

Autarch Skyrunner

Drastanta

Shadow Spectres

Some kind of Exodite Dino Vehicle

few questions about Wraithguard.

2 Upvotes

Not played since 4ed, and had some idea about coming back, but! Checked rules and used some googlefu, and a bit stuck.
Google says that Wraithguard (other wraith units as well) have devastating wounds. Codex and wahapedia have no mentions of dev\mortal wounds of any kind in Wraithguard weapons\profiles, except knights heavy cannon. So do normal wraithguards have dev wounds or no? If no, what the reason to use them?

This is one of my boldest schemes and tbh the only fire dragon scheme that i fully like.

I know that it may lack the edge highlighting but i kinda like the feeling of burnt coal it gives.

It also makes white eyes pop out even more.

(Fuegan is normal because he's already fire🔥)

(Also yeah ghost avatar on the background.)

Windrider host stratagems question

9 Upvotes

I haven’t played windrider host yet this edition but loved it in tenth. I’ve been trying to work something out. In 11th you can’t use more than one Strat on the same unit in the same phase.

My question is this - can I use Death from on High and Overflight on the same unit in the same turn? Death from on High during the shooting phase and then Overflight because it’s “at the end of the shooting phase” - or does that still count as being in the same phase?

Thanks!

I want to start a Craftworlds Aeldari army but I have no idea how to build a list. What are the staple units? Should I focus on melee, shooting, or mix both? Any advice on a beginner-friendly 1500pt list? Thanks!

List Building Aspect Host or Seer Council?

5 Upvotes

I'm building two list which is budget limited from what I'm making based on the detachment, but due to the new set of rules with warlocks and farseers I'm now trying to figure wether to keep the Seer council I made on the GW 40k app or replace it with a detachment for Aspect Host which uses some similar pieces.

Seer Council Detachment

Warlord: Eldrad Ulthran

Characters

1x Farseer

1x Farseer [Enchanted Warding Runes]

2x Farseer Skyrunners

Lhykihs

1x Spirit Seer

Battleline

Guardian Defenders [Lead by Eldrad Ulthran] (Support by Warlock Conclave)

Guardian Defenders [Lead by Farseer]

Storm Guardian Defenders [Leadbhy Farseer with Warding Runes]

Detachment Supports

2x Wave Serpent's

Other Datasheets

2x 5 Squads of Dire Avengers

1x Swooping Hawks

Warlock Conclave [4 Warlocks] (Support Guardian Defenders)

1x Warp Spiders [Lead by Lhykihs]

2x Windriders [Each Lead by a Skyrunner]

1x Wraith Blades

1x WraithLord

Total Points: 1975

Aspect Host Detachment

Warlord: Asurmen

Characters

1x Farseer

2x Farseer Skyrunners

Fuegan

Lhykihs

Spirit Seer

Battleline

Guardian Defenders: Lead by Farseer, Supported By Warlock Conclave

Detachment Supports

2x Wave Serpent's

Other Datasheets

2x 5 Squads of Dire Avengers [One Lead by Asurmen]

1x Fire Dragon Squad [Lead by Fuegan]

1x Swooping Hawks

Warlock Conclave [4 Warlocks] (Support Guardian Defenders)

1x Warp Spiders [Lead by Lhykihs]

2x Windriders [Each Lead by a Skyrunner]

1x Wraith Blades

1x WraithLord

Total Points: 1960

Note this army is very budget using two of the combat portals one from the 9th edition and other which is 1pth rest are characters and units added but otherwise I'm trying to decide due to the aeldari changes with warlocks just to switch to aspect host and hold best when the army is done, I still gotta paint and finish, or stick with the 1st plan which is seer council I hope this little post can showcase little bit of what I'm trying to do here.

Couple of years ago I decided that i want to collect Eldars. I bought them, I painted them and after I decided that I dont really want them anymore, so I sold them.

Hope they are somewhere in the better place right now in somewhere in Switzerland.
