Eldar vs Chaos Daemons 1750 Battle Report

The Eldar face a rampaging horde of Chaos on the field of battle. In a strange turn of events, not a single Eldar unit shows up from Reserves on Turn 2, leaving the Chaos momentarily wondering if they opposing army has decided to skip the battle altogether!

@BeTheBe5t Hi there, just noticed your comment now - sorry for the late reply! Most Eldar armies include a Farseer as their HQ choice with at least the Doom power. Doom lets you reroll all wounds against a target. With STR 3 vs T 4, this means statistically you are actually better at wounding Marines than those Marines are at wounding you. With high Init, you can often decimate Space Marine units before they can go. Also, Scorpions are STR 4 b/c of their sword and Harlequins have Furious Charge.

you can't put all of your units in reserve ,can you?

[EldarCorsair]

@TheGinger117 Of course you can :).

[92bagder]

if your daemons ALWAYS GO SECOND!

[BeTheBe5t]

@TheGinger117 why are they better than banshees? they are both only str 3..... 5+ to wound a marine omg....

[jonnyjig11]

what was the daemons player thinking, deep striking all the way in the back of the board then running at you?? it hurt me, being the daemon player that I am. Also, damn nice painting on the eldar!

[TheGinger117]

eldar player, get some striking scorpians. they are better then banshees

[EldarCorsair]

@DiewithAvengence They do. Are you asking about the Falcon that was immobilized? Also, yes Fortune works from inside a vehicle though you still need to be in 6" of the target, measured from the hull.
