Status of the eldar army II

Okay, it's time to talk about those things I learned from playing IG and a non-seer eldar, both in regard to my view on Eldar as a tournament army and some few shortcomings I repeat too often for my own liking.

1. Let's start with my own errors:

I spend a lot of time with a theoretical approach to gaming, ranging from simple mathhammer to digging through the web for data, or just talking with fellow 40k players through instant messaging services like gmail-chat. Which is fine if you don't find enough time to play or can't field an army thanks to paint&assembly related reasons.

But for someone who puts such an effort in the theoretical side of the game, I'm getting kind of sloppy when it comes to tournament playing. So what errors do I like to make? Let's just name those two, which will hurt you the most.


The game starts with the roll off

Short intermission

I'm back folks for a short intermission. The second part of "status of the Eldar army" will be finished either today or over the course of the weekend.

As you may remember, I talked a lot about my scheme in the past, but never showed some pictures. That changes now, because I just finished my first practice session. I used that old 1:35 howitzer I talked about, primed it with the new vallejo primer and then applied two shades of violet today.

Status of the eldar army I

Okay, with all those short battle reports done, let me tell you about the state of my eldar army:

Basically in pieces. I stripped all the tanks from the cheap primer I used and scraped the new flying bases I build.
