| I got in a 4k vs Steel Legion that was also a 3-0 loss but that was due to his regimental HQ eating both my warlock and CC phantom. It was ugly. The knights performed well though I would like people to look out for how the weapons are chosen. I had a hard time seeing why I wouldn't put a scattershie... |

Great, thanks guys. I have made the edit to the power fist and reuploaded the pdf.
I'm planning to get in a battle with a heavy emphasis on CC knights this week. |

| That's a pretty obvious mistake. Whoops! And the fusion lance probably should be that way though I worry it makes it too good. Edit: reuploaded. One of the things I want to focus on this time is the value of the different weapons. I expect to see a lot of fist+lance phantoms. So please keep it in th... |

| Thanks E&C. I think I agree on all your points for the next iteration with the exception that I get a lot of mileage out of titan pulsars in large games. In 3k I can see how they lack 'unf' since you need your BTS to be as tough as possible, hence CCWs. But in 4k a pulsar-armed phantom is amazin... |

| Thanks for your thoughts, parrot. We can't change anything 'list-wide' here so how holofields work will have to wait. Your experience with the brightlance mirrors my own though. I'd rather change the stats on the weapon itself or even make most of them twin-linked rather than change the points costs... |

| At 3k this list is in a similar bind as the Minervan list in that it has expensive core formations and only 2 support options per. But its turned up because to use the 650pt formation you need a 750pt gatekeeper. The most activations you can get is with Phantom Rev Twins 4x WW 2x Nightwing Wraithshi... |

| I got in 3 games with the list this past weekend. No reports yet due to time constraints so here's the short version. All games were 4k. Game 1: vs Minervan Tank Legion 2-0 Fir Iolarion Turn 3: BTS, Take & Hold Phantom (fist+fusion lance) Warlock (Fist plus psychic lance) 2x Revenant (pulsars) R... |

Thanks for the reports.
I have to say I don't think I've ever lost 4-0 before playing this list. I've done it twice now and had a couple other blowouts. The activation disadvantage is hard to overcome once an opponent knows to hit you there. |

Thanks guys. I'm going to get in a game with a swarm of War Walkers this week.
4k
2xPhantom (1 SC)
2xRevenant Twins
5x War Walkers
+150 points of upgrades. Haven;t settled on the specifics yet.
After that I'll look into the next revision with everything said here in mind. |

Thanks Steve. How did you like the 2x fist Phantom?
E&C: the way I see it 25pts is a no brainer for Rev twins while 50pts requires you to prioritize. That's why I've kept it in there. |

| By the way I think it's a sensible first new list, quite interested in them now. That's great to hear. They need plenty of interest. What was the thinking about the warlock and bonesinger? Personally I still think the warlock is worth taking and farsight is still very useful (I would mostly use it ... |

Ok.
A Fusion Lance that adds +1 FF TK(D6) to its current statline is comparable to the Psychic Lance. Better against large WEs, not as potent against groups or smaller WEs were 1d6 is overkill. |

| The problem with Eldar ACs is that they have awesome stats. Comparing a 2BP Phoenix to a Marauder is a slight advantage to the Phoenix so 275 for 2 looks about right. I doubt you will see many in this list though even at that price. Within the list compare 2 Nightwings for 225 to 6 War Walkers for 2... |
