    Eldar are super squishy like its not even funny how myuch micro management go into eldar but its worth it for the bomber raids seriously i can crank out bombs like its not even funny

    Cant you just put bomber runs on auto? Or is that a bad idea due to sharing a CD with the other fighters?

    You can not auto fire bombing runs to my dismay since eldar ships crumble to dust at the bump of an escort

    Are we talking savage gunships via ork escorts? Cause i friggen love those things.

    No im just saying an escort hit my full holofeild 2 blocks of health solaire ( praise the sun ) eldar light cruiser and it just exploded. Such salt very raeg

    Was it an ork escort? They do have that melee only one that does 300% ram damage....and is made of glass. Makes for a funny 600 point army though.

    Edit: btw curious to see how effective the blood axe nova kanon could be vs eldar ships.

    Meanwhile...

    A half dozen Eldar escort ships rammed the side of a Slaaneshi Hellbreaker in the Lash of Loesh's fleet, the Chaos Space Marine captain looks outside with mild confusion before calling in a swarm of slaves to scuff out the dents.
  8. Have to say, having played them for a few hours now, the eldar definitely need to be reworked. While the other fleets are somewhat compatible and relatively well balanced, the sheer degree of micro-management, planning and concentration needed to win battles with them is insane. It works fine against the AI admittedly, no problems there, but I can't see it ever ending that well against human players. Well, unless the guy with the eldar fleet is Korean, but that should go without saying.

    eldar require a "little little"micro.

    you need to be an eldar in real life, or some starcraft player

    Meanwhile 14 savage gunships on the ork side are set to auto pilot frontal assault and proceed to shoot down major ships on their own. Who doesnt love a good A move army amiright :D
