Hello folks,
I played today against a knights army and brought a very nasty list to deal with them. All in on dark lances and a farseer for doom. Worked extremly well as I managed to take down a knight per turn. My opponent said it was a very good list and i should try how it works against other armies.
Do you guys see any argument to run this list over the more traditional approach? Meaning some assault and blaster kabalites/blasterborn.
Here is the list:
++ Air Wing (CP +1) (Aeldari_Unified) [504 Pts] ++
+ Flyer +
Razorwing Jetfighter [155 Pts]: Twin Splinter Rifle
. Dark Lances: 2x Dark Lance
Razorwing Jetfighter [155 Pts]: Twin Splinter Rifle
. Dark Lances: 2x Dark Lance
Voidraven [194 Pts]: Void Lances, Voidraven Missiles
+ 'Faction +
Drukhari
++ Battalion (CP +3) (Aeldari_Unified) [1145 Pts] ++
+ Elites +
Kabalite Trueborn [95 Pts]: 2x Dark Lance, 5x Trueborn
Kabalite Trueborn [95 Pts]: 2x Dark Lance, 5x Trueborn
Kabalite Trueborn [95 Pts]: 2x Dark Lance, 5x Trueborn
+ HQ +
Farseer [113 Pts]: Witchblade
+ Fast Attack +
Razorwing Flocks [42 Pts]: 3x Razorwing Flock (screening the Farseer)
+ Heavy Support +
Ravager [155 Pts]: 3x Dark Lance
Ravager [155 Pts]: 3x Dark Lance
Ravager [155 Pts]: 3x Dark Lance
+ Dedicated Transport +
Venom [80 Pts]: Splinter Cannon, Twin Splinter Rifle
Venom [80 Pts]: Splinter Cannon, Twin Splinter Rifle
Venom [80 Pts]: Splinter Cannon, Twin Splinter Rifle
+ 'Faction +
Craftworlds
Drukhari
++ Total: [1649 Pts] ++
My strategy is to destroy pretty much the biggest threats on my first turn including transport. Snowballing from there. I shoot from 36" and try to stay in a 24" distance as long as possible. Once I took down all "heavy" stuff I get closer to clean up the rest.
Of course this list has hard counters (horde spam) but it should do well against most vehicle/monster lists.
