This is pretty close to my own army, my HS tends to look like:
3 walkers - scatter lasers (180)
3 walkers - shuriken cannon (120)
1 walker - bright lances/1 nightwing

and my bikes tend to go as either squads of 3 with a warlock or squads of 9 (occasionally with a warlock)

I'm working on a true max out St6 army

HQ: Farseer, guide, spear, runes of warding - 93

Troops: 3 Bikes, shuriken cannon, + warlock, spear, embolden - 129
Troops: 3 Bikes, shuriken cannon, + warlock, spear, embolden - 129
Troops: 3 Bikes, shuriken cannon, + warlock, spear, embolden - 129

Fast: 3 Vipers 2 Shuriken Cannon each - 180
Fast: 3 Vipers 2 Shuriken Cannon each - 180
Fast: 2 Vipers 2 Shuriken Cannon each - 120

Heavy: 3 War Walkers: 2 Scatter lasers each - 180
Heavy: 3 War Walkers: 2 Scatter lasers each - 180
Heavy: 3 War Walkers: 2 Scatter lasers each - 180

I am thinking of upgrading the warlocks to have the heavy flamer type power and dropping runes of warding from the HQ.

The army has 129 St6 shots that should kill 18 marines a turn without using guide or the shuriken catts & spears.

 

[king88mob]

just a thought, but how can you have a ST6 army without fielding a ridiculous number of warp spiders ?

2per, 4 on the exarch. granted no range, but great mobility to work with the rest of your units!

 

[Archnomad]

I thought of this the other day as well mate xD. But yeah like you said, its about the range more than anything

 

[Jared van Kell]

Now that is a lot of firepower. I pity the horde army that has to go up against that.

JvK :happy:

A genuine question, how well do you see the bikes performing in squad of 4? At the first loss they are forced to take a morale check and moving 3D6" if fleeing I have seen Jetbike-squadrons leave the field before even being close to the enemy.

 

[Cheredanine]

this is the point of embolden on the warlock, with his leadership and re-rolls these units dont run

 

[sodcactus]

Aha, OK.

Haven't played much against Eldars, especially not the latest codice so I have very sketchy know-how about their psychic powers, but I should have guessed that there was some counter to that flaw

 

[Sleepy Rabbit]

I recently thought of an idea that would capitalize on the S6 shots of the Eldar. Are these lists realistic ones?
