I've made up my mind on my second army after my SMs: Eldar, cuz they are frkin awesome with sweet tactics!

[Sorrowsky]

Really Brilliant Tactic, kind of like what Alexander the Great would do during the epic battle in his movie. Using his horse to pull on one side and then launch a reassault in the middle. Brilliant Tactic, i'm going to see if I can pull this tactic in the upcoming Imperial Guard codex. Thanks for the inspiration

[supermaksas]

this tactic is universal,but it comes at a cost.you devote a significant part of the army to that very distraction(ex:SM bikes and a rhino that moves on a road(extra 6 inches make cruising speed into combat speed)),that way you ignore other core enemy units,and pull away units from a battle until turn 2,3.

[KaralynAD]

Jetbikes are expensive to do. I wonder if this works for Dark Eldar with Reavers....they share the speed. I have Craftworld Eldar but I never bothered with Jetbikes.

[Tenozuma]

I don't get it. If you move from the centre to a flank, don't do any shooting with the bikes (turboboost), then they move to react and you redeploy back to the centre, what have you accomplished? You haven't got rid of that reactionary force or even out-manoeuvred it. Aren't you both in the centre? Because their units don't move as fast as yours, they never made it as far down that flank as you did anyway, so by you redeploying, aren't you just the same distance from them on the other side?

[MegaElite25]

i like the strategy

[AndersNB95]

Your videos are awesome, I love them, thx for nice tactica, really needed it. I'm pretty new in the gaming society, but hopefully It will advance into something. Of course I'm playin eldar, they're AWESOME!!!!!

[MrWaz888]

@AngryCaboose well that would work if you have some destroyers coming up on say the right side with some warriors. and a monolith only a short distance away for the warriors to phase out to the other side of the board then turbo boost the destroyers and kill them all for the ctan! (i play necrons too :) )

[AngryCaboose]

do you think this could work with Necrons? I was thinking of using possibly one squad of Destroyers, possibly 3 units, then have the Destroyer lord and Scarabs move with them. I'm a Necron player and just thought of that to be honest.

[rand0man32]

could i have your full army list w/ points? I play guard but i'm going to start a saim-hann army after i reach 1500 points which is only about 2 tanks away.

[sn0wman1333]

This tactic is sound but you have admitted that you have given up a turn. The board you were playing the warmaster on was still quite small and plenty of cover for your army. I didnt really see that the warmaster "fell" for the tactic or was lured away and i feel that on the top/right flank you simply outnumbered him.

what are you going to use to try it? hellhound and cavelry might work.
