Yes that's right, my son and I are no longer going to battle it out against each other. We are going to join forces to take on the guys from Table Top Banter, Callum and Harry. I have already played Callum, and we had a lot of fun, so I can only imagine how great this pairs battle is going to be. If you haven't already checked out the Table Top Banter Channel, then please do so here, oh, and they also have a nice looking Blog which Harry looks after.
So, what is our list going to be? Well, as you can see from the picture above, I am going to play my Eldar, Callum hasn't seen my army before, and I thought it would be cool to play my Bat'leth Wraithknight and converted Crimson Hunter, just for the sight on the table. Jetbikes seem to be the obvious Troops choice and I threw in some Swooping Hawks, just for fun.
As for my son, he wanted to play a bit of a death star unit, so he went for Tiggy and Centurions in a pod, backed up my Tacticals and bikes! Our plan? I will push forward with the Wraithknight, along with all the Marines and deal out as much damage as we can. In the meantime, my Jetbikes will do their usual tricks offering some long range support and taking objectives, with the Crimson Hunter and Swooping Hawks adding what they can to the big push as and when they come in!
Here is our final list, this is going to be fun...
