Retribution Home Team


Next Saturday I host Retribution a one day 40k tournament with 10 players which my good friend Wil Hoverd has organised.

I of course will be playing and will be taking my Eldar into battle again. My list is a variation of what I used at NZ Masters in December where I got 2nd (imagine my delight =D). This build has the 'fat' trimmed out of it and is pretty functional.

3 War Walkers with Scatter Lasers

I have played variations of this over the past few months but have come back to this core list simply because I know how to use everything in it fairly well. Sure there are a couple 'weak' choices or wasteful upgrades here and there but I find everything very useful so well see how they go next weekend against the varied lists attending.

PS - The Nightspinner in the pic above will have a cannon attached instead of catapults by play time ;)
