Post subject: | TOEG 2012 - Ulthwe Eldar |
So, i have decided to do something other than Marines. Im hoping i have my standard 3k list painted by mid April ready for Open War, and id quite like a second army, so i have some variation for my weekly gaming nights. I took another royal beating on Sunday at the hands of Dave's Ulthwe, and it has inspired me to give Eldar a go, like Dave, using the Ulthwe list. With 1st April fast approaching and the fact i have no models to begin painting, i better get an order in sometime soon for some models. Hopefully, within the first week of April i will have something to begin painting. Ive not decided on a colour scheme yet, i had thought about an army of pink pansey space elves terrorising the table tops, but im not sure, as i also like the idea of a simple blue and white army as well. If i manage to get some models within the next couple of days, i hope to get a test model or two posted up. |

Ive been toying about with lists and i keep coming back to the same list Dave used:- Mounted Guardians - 375 pts Mounted Guardians - 375 pts Guardians + Wraithguard + Seer Council - 450 pts (BTS & Sup Com) Aspect Host - 250 pts (think i will go for Warp Spiders) Rangers - 100 pts War Walkers - 200 pts 3 Falcons + 2 Firestorm - 250 pts 3 Falcons + 2 Firestorm - 250 pts 3 Falcons + 2 Firestorm - 250 pts Vampire - 200 pts Nightwings - 300 pts Which is 3k on the nose! My gaming group love playing 4k games, so i am also thinking about that. Id love to take a Warlock Titan, however it would mean dropping the Nightwings from the list and i like Nightwings! By including the Warlock, im left with 450 pts and i 'think' i have enough AA coverage in the Falcons. I was thinking either another unit of mounted guardians plus fleshing out the Rangers or two units of jet bikes and a gate, i just cant decide! Schedule of Painting:- April - Mounted Guardians + Rangers May - Mounted Guardians + War Walkers June - 2 units of Falcons/Firestorms July - Guardians + Wraithguard + Seer Council August - Falcons/Firestorms + Aspects September - Vampire + Nightwings October - Warlock Titan November - Additional units to flesh out 4k |

are warp spiders the best choice to stick in the vampire? I know they have their lovers and haters, but I'm pretty sure they'd do better out of a gate...... Still, this is a painting blog not a list discussion.... I've been on the recieving end of this army and it's a killer all-round build! looking forward to seeing more Eldar plogs for ToEG! ![]() |

They have Jump Packs, so they get the 15cm disembark, even if they don't get the 30cm Infiltrate. Looking forward to this project. |

Nice! Great to see another Ulthwe player starting, that's for sure. Is that an EpicUK list you're using? I'm just trying to square the points costs for a couple of the units. I do keep meaning to start my own Ulthwe TOEG, perhaps after I've fixed the car, fixed my bike, built some lights and written some papers ![]() |

I faced Banshee's, which hit really hard, but then are pretty stranded. I guess it is nice as a potential BTS killer, but it is something i will trial during games once they are completed. mattthemuppet wrote: Nice!

Its what my gaming group primarily use and what ill be using if my tournament experiences are enjoyable ones ![]() |

fair dos, both have their plus sides. what's the aspect fm size for EUK Ulthwe? I found that 4 warp spiders in a vampire was pretty useful for picking off weak or broken fms and that 8 (in the Biel Tan) list can be an absolute killer if used right. Being able to disembark 15cm rather than 5 can be pretty useful for staying out of an AA bubble but still getting into clipping range, plus the infiltrate means that they have a larger threat radius after the assault. |
