on foot ka ni?

Ya bah. Diorang jln kaki saja, apa mau buat harga minyak petrol sudah naik bah hehehe!

Deploy depan2 sekali. Move 6", run d6" (boleh re-roll due to fleet), lepas tu shoot fusion guns & firepike (kalau sampai la..rasanya itu Exarch's firepike boleh sampai).

What's so special about this list?
- Tak ada apa laa..just a total of 168 shots per turn, nothing much..

Edited the list a bit, thanks Vuel for inspiring me to create this list. 

But rest assured guys, his & mine are not the same list. He really followed my creed of "cheap is good"! At least this list is not as cheezy without any of those Ultra-Knights.

Actually.. You will never reach that 168 shots per turn hahaha.

In the 1st turn you have only 50++ shots. All at S6 though.
The Guardians are too short ranged to do anything. And the Flyers aren't yet on table.

A question : Can Heavy Weapon platform move, run and shoot at normal BS if carying a Heavy weapon?

Yes. They have relentless entry. So i'll just deploy them to the front line, move-run-reroll with fleet-scatter laser shots-t/l shuriken catapult shots. Maybe not 1st turn shooting, but maybe i can if there's an enemy infiltrating. 

If not 1st Turn, I still have those W-Walkers: 36 Scatter lasers-t/l the 18 starcannons plus from the Vypers (21 s6 shots), at bs4 they should be able to take care some of the enemy Oblits-equivalents & light vehicles.

2nd Turn onwards is when the army really rocks.

The WarWalkers gained so much this time. comes with 5+ invul some more..

Here, I substituted the Guardians with D-Avgrs for that extra 6" shooting range, 4+ armour & Ld9. Now, they can almost assuredly be able to reach the enemy target via a potential shooting threat range of 30".


But, due to being only s4 shots, I might be better off taking Eldrad instead of the Avatar, hoping to get the Doom, Guide/Prescience & Fortune spell.

Yup.. Farseer would be better

Having read the Rulebook FAQ. I realize something real good about using Avatar.
 
According to FAQ, a unit that has Go To Ground automatically goes back to normal the moment they become Fearless.
 
The tactic is:
i. Dire Avengers move forward (preferably in area terrain). Make sure they stay 12 inch away from the Avatar. Bladestorm!!;
ii. in enemy turn, if targeted by enemy --> Go To Ground;
iii. Eldar movement phase. Move Avatar so that the Fearless bubble covers that DA unit --> The DA automatically stand up and can now act as normal;
iv. repeat process i - iii.
 
P/S: I just realized that Flyers loses Skyfire if they enter Hover mode. Damn!

ini shuriken catapult boleh twin-linked ka?

Boleh bro.. syok!

Kalau boleh mcm broken ja hahah. Ahh 1 lagi kalau wave serpent kena pen hit mana trigger dulu roll for cover save or serpent shield dulu?

Always roll armour pen dulu. Make cover save for all Glance and Pen. Then apply Serpent Shield for any failed cover save for pen.

hey dude, just to clarify, i don't think you can t/l your shuriken weapons with laser lock. Cuz the rule is specific to model and not unit. Meaning only Wave Serpents, Falcons, Vypers, Warwalkers, Wraithlords and Wraithknights benefits from this rule.

yea its model bro not unit u think ur tau is it....

Oh ya kah.. I thought it was unit. So only Vehicles and MC can gain that benefit. Sayang lah, that would've made Guardians a good choice.

Crimson hunter exarch bukan boleh upgrade 1 saja ka?

ya that's true, one per detachment.

-1 Exarch pilot only? Sorry bros, I don't have the dex. Thanks for the info.

-Scatter Laser can't work for a unit? Ouch! And here I was thinking what a rock solid 20-men Guardians firing 40 t/l S4 shots per turn + Doom...nasty!! Alas...

-Another idea is by taking 30 Warp Spiders...

Alo, that's what guide is for! who needs tech when you got an old man guiding you how to shoot!

Kesian.. sudah tua-tua pun kena paksa pergi perang. There's something wrong with Eldar civilisation..

Notes:-
1. Astropath'll make my flyer reserves roll coming in on 2+ hehehe!

2. I just noticed that Executioner Plasma Cannon doesn't have Gets Hot rule..NICE!! (How silly of me for not noticing this for several years)

3. The Hydras are now given the Skyfire rule..I don't have the BRB with me at the moment, but they can still opt not to activate Skyfire & shoot at non-flying target at full BS, right?

Cannot.. Hydras can only Snap Fire at ground targets
