As the title says, I am taking my Eldar to a 1500 point 40k GT in San Diego. It's run by Dave Faye and has some of the best players in CA going so it should be a great challenge. For me, the biggest challenge might be on what army list to bring...
So given the points limit and missions (which can be found here), there are three ways I can go:
1.) footdar/wraithzilla; 2.) Mech with a seer council; 3.) full on Mech with autarch for reserves denial.
In light of the missions (all three mission objective types will be in effect each worth 4 points if achieved and 2 points if tied on-only deployment zones will differ) I settled on the following three list and reach out to you guys for some feedback and thoughts:
1.) Wraithzilla style: 1498HQ: 365Eldrad: 210Avatar: 155Troops: 668Wraithguard: 10, spirit seer, enhance=396Guardians: 11, scatter laser=103Guardians: 11, scatter laser=103Guardian jetbikes: 3=66Heavy Support: 465Wraithlord: eml/bl=155Wraithlord: eml/bl=155Wraithlord: eml/bl=155
