| Edit: Please move this if you think it should be in the allies section Longtime lurker here. While this list doesn't contain any DE anymore, I figured this would be the best place to post the list due to Jimsolo's freakshow articles. I do have an alternate version of the list which ditches the Eldar CAD for a 10 man seer council, moves the forgeworld stuff to the Corsair Ad, and adds a scalpel squadron for null deployment shenanigans. (RIP Battle Brother Raider transports ) Strategy is to use the Prince+Seer Council+Baharroth deathstar to psychic shriek/area denial/bully the opponent in a manner similar to the old baron+seer council builds (Fortuned Shadowfield &/or Invisibility+Shadowfield is nigh invincible), while using supporting fire from the Lynx+Hornets+Scatbikes to pound the opponent. Wraithknight is used as a bullet sponge while the corsair dancers can be outflanked to harass the backfield/cap objectives. Onto the list Total 1847/1850
Detachment 1 - Seer Council Farseer 1 - Bike (Warlord) Farseer 2 - Bike Warlocks 1-5 - Bike Detachment 2 - Eldar CAD HQ 1 - Baharroth HQ 2 - Farseer w/ Bike Troop 1 - 3x Scatbikes Troop 2 - 3x Scatbikes Fast Attack 1 - 2x Twin Pulse Laser Hornets Heavy 1 - Lynx w/ Pulsar, Scatter Laser Lord of War - Wraithknight with Sword + Shield Detachment 3 - Corsairs AD (Confirmed allowed) HQ 1 - Corsair Prince (Collector) with Mask of Secrets, Shadowfield, Void Sabre, and Jetbike Troop 1 - 3x Cloud dancers

| Is it ITC legal to have a Super heavy and the Gargantuan WraithKnight? Here is the ITC rule:
Regardless of Detachments, no more than 1 Fortification and/or 1 Super Heavy/Gargantuan Lord of War may be taken from the allowed LoW list, below.
That seems to preclude this list from lgal play in ITC. Am I wrong? | |

| Lynx is now a Heavy Support choice in Doom of Mymeara Version 2, but the Non-Pulsar is still banned. I ran this list vs a triple knight + culexus + skyhammer build and ended up tabling him turn 3. The shadowfield REALLY makes this way more resilient vs alphastriking bullshit, and baharroth's H&R let me get out of a pickle when one of the Knights charged the seer council. | |

| it's...a... heavy support? What? That's insanity.
But even so, it's still a super Heavy right? | |

| big points drop to 25X base and no longer a super heavy (no more void shields, but it got upped armored to 12/11/10 w/ 5 hp), but now its either a 3 shot TL d Ordinance shot or a TL single D blast. Prescience support + lynx = 2 knights down in 2 turns of shooting.
I like how its prob 3-4x stronger than a ravager, but costs less than 2 TriDL ravs | |

| Yes a Lynx is a heavy support now with 5 hull points and 1 gun thats has good D weapon profile to it, with the nerf to range D weapons in I.T.C, and having one main gun, i'm having a hard time including it as an ally to Dark eldar for ani tank over lets say 3 hornets with pulse lasers.
Its way better than 2 ravagers for sure but i'm not sure sure against 12 str 8 ap2 shots. Any thoughts? | |
