I know Jervis said a Farseer Stand should be "four Warlocks and a Farseer". I do not have a lot of them thus it would impact my ability to field command stands.

I was curious, what are you guys doing or what have you done? Do you already have them set up that way? In your guardian hosts do you have a full stand of "Warlocks/Farseer"?

I am thinking of only doing the Full stand with my Farseer council but just have  a stand with a farseer and four guardians in my normal War Hosts. However, I did want to know what you guys are doing first.

Dafrca,


I know Jervis said a Farseer Stand should be "four Warlocks and a Farseer". I do not have a lot of them thus it would impact my ability to field command stands.


I have every sort of flavor of Eldar command stands from the older stand with five Warlocks to newer ones with various combinations (I have a large Eldar army and liked playing them very much at one time).

I wouldn't worry about the stand composition since Jervis has said it will be loose. I'd take his statements as "advice."

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

P.S.
Where did your handle Dafrca, come from? I'm curious.

My handle came from my name and frustration. Let me explain. My last name is Casquilho. Neither an easy name nor a common one. For a long time I used it as my handle on boards etc.  One day, Yahoo groups took over a board I was a member of. Yahoo Groups demanded I re-register. Well they claimed someone already had Casquilho. I was shocked. After trying about 10 names I was not a happy camper. The as almost a joke I used the first two letters of my first, middle, and last names. dafrca was born. Yahoo groups took it and I have used it ever sense.

As a side note, I also found out I had a distant cousin I did not know about, ?Casquilho? on Yahoo groups.

Anyway, that is the less then exciting story of dafrca. :-)

Cool. I often wonder where and how people get their handles.

As for Farseer stands, one of the main reasons that I snapped up a load of plastic sprues recently is so that I can customise my character stands. I want my Imperial Guards to have an Eldar advisor (with a little story about it), and I want my Farseer to have an exarch bodyguard for one formation and maybe on his own for a second one. As long as everyknows what it is (and it should be the only stand with a Farseer represented on it), then it should not be a problem.

We have 4 Warlocks + 1 Farseer = Farseer & 5 Warlocks for the Council. ?And a few other variations for other Warlock or as they call it now Farseer Council, from other Craft Worlds. Mixing Guardians with Warlock(s) would make sense. ?We also use "Banners" as in SM1 to further identify leader units. ?Of course as I said in the past, before you glue and paint, wait to see what Jervis comes up with many "moons" from now, if you can be patient ? ????  ?

I have two things going on;

1) I have more Eldar then I need and thus I am attempting to decide what to keep and what to pass on through trades or sale. Most of the troupes are already based thus I am looking at what based units to keep as well.

2) I guess I could just play my Marines for now and wait to play the Eldar until later. Or I could just ask the people on the forum for advice, make a choice, and then have fun  :laugh:

So I'm thinking I will absorb all the advice I receive from you great people and then what ever I do will be OK because I will like it. As we will be playing in our group 100% of the games I think this will work.

I agree, if you are not having fun then it is no longer a "game" but a chore.
