I suppose I could proxy in some Warriors or finally get that one I was kit-bashing finished but that'll have to be for next time.40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-33567252260784433512015-06-03T20:51:19.197+01:002015-06-03T20:51:19.197+01:00I'm not sure he did very much aside from be a ...I'm not sure he did very much aside from be a target, but maybe that is his value. Eldar are tough, that's the one silver lining, there's no shame in a defeat to a superior army, even if it was one sided. The hope is that constantly fighting at a handicap may one day result in me doing well against other forces. <br /><br />Unless of course nids are just nerfed beyond pity and really I'm just deluding myself that I can be competitive with what I've got. Not that winning is my goal, I just want to be challenging and thus have great games.40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-32066491889832829992015-06-03T20:47:13.501+01:002015-06-03T20:47:13.501+01:00You're not wrong about our lack of firepower. ...You're not wrong about our lack of firepower. Sadly I just couldn't justify the Biovores, they can be useful but I think I got better options by dropping them and some other items although technically I've ended up sacrificing a lot of 'wounds' things that may be more durable, or at least interesting/fun, we'll see.40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-33711144890518994062015-06-01T21:04:15.240+01:002015-06-01T21:04:15.240+01:00You could also run a Swarmlord as your HQ if you w...You could also run a Swarmlord as your HQ if you want reserves to come in sooner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-5697915897760615952015-06-01T16:12:09.246+01:002015-06-01T16:12:09.246+01:00Nice bat rep Dave.

Still enjoyed the photos of the two armies clashing :) Glad to see death leaper is finally doing something!greggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528518337222880432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-87941441290408621712015-06-01T13:17:12.947+01:002015-06-01T13:17:12.947+01:00I think I would keep the biovores, while not as us...I think I would keep the biovores, while not as useful against hard targets, marines eldar vehicles, they make a mess of lighter targets such as tau, orks, guard, probably quite good against the new skitarii. Only reason I don't have any in my list is due to not owning the models. <br />New eldar are a pretty bad match for nids as well. We don't have the firepower to take out wraithknights and rules such as bladestorm really kick the bejesus out of out MCs. That's not to say that they are unbeatable. Just difficult.
