Eldar ride to war

Hello TDC:

My first tournament with new Eldar ahead. With De allies of course. I got some good advice from @Unorthodoxy and modified my original list a bit. List is 1850 with only CAD+AD allowed (Oathsworn is alowed too). Missions are basic Eternal+Maelstrom with normal secondaries. Participants are invited so there should be only very good generals. And top-table is videod in twitch or similar server. (I'll post link here later if someone is interested) On Saturday there are three rounds and top8 Continues to Sunday to elimination games. 3+3 games for victor.

I thought long to change one Farseer and Bastion to Autarch with Bashee mask but decided against it due to loss of psychic levels.

Main opponents should be Daemons (that do CAD very well) and Necrons.

Why not windriders in groups of three - 5x3 - and one group of five - farseer there. That is one extra MSU ObSec unit. You still take the same test for losing one model. You want either three or five bikes methinks.

Otherwise it looks decent enough if you can bait your opponent to get close to those d-cannons. You have the mobility and the MSU to be competitive today.

3 games behind and 9, 8, 11/20 points. First game against ork/dae, secon nec/tau and 3rd nec. Still made it to sevond day as 8th player. Got a mirror of ejbs against adepticon 3rd player.

Groups of 4 are bad. Same with Hemlocks. D cannon were great against wraiths.

How did it go?

Mission was Deadlock with Emperors will. I got to deploy first and deployed everything to front line. I didn't get fortune but got one Invisibility. Opponent got fortune but no ignores cover nor any other good spell. Some Psychic shrieks on both sides.

He stole and shot 16 scatter bikes to oblivion. He walked Avatar to range of my D-cannons but I missed my guide aided shot badly. I was able to hide my reaverstar until last turn as my Hemlock with Invis didn't show up (with Comm's reroll) T2. T3 Invisibility was denied. I was able to kill all but one unit of his 6 bike units before endgame and had a small chance of getting emperors will tied. Hemlock managed to terrify one bike holding his home objective but 2 Heavy D-cannons were not killy enough to kill 2 kabalite also holding that objective. My home objective was also contested but failing at his we decided to quit as I had no change of winning to game.

Next game my opponent beat Deamons and made it to top table were he was against DE (with wwp wraiths)

DE started good (T1 domination, fb and Slay the WL) but sadly not good enough. My opponent won it in the last turn with grabing the relic DE had been holding the whole game and moved it to his table edge.
