Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Combat Patrol: Aeldari

Product Information

The primary mission was a single objective in the center of the table, which generated Dangerous and Difficult terrain in a radius of 6″ and 12″ around it, respectively. Also, GW mentioned the Thousand Sons and the Grey Knights boxes will hit shelves in March 2022, so look for those very soon! Wrecking that guy is a little bit like showing up to a youth dodge ball league at the local gym and then tallying how many head-shots you can get. It is without a doubt the best way to learn the game, and probably the most efficient way for experienced players to get multiple reps in a single evening.

Each craftworld's Guardians take up arms to defend their dying race, wielding deadly shuriken catapults or power blades, or shredding foes atop their swift Windrider jetbikes. But having EXECUTIONER enables your Farseer to pivot into being a powerful target elimination unit in the midgame if something goes wrong and you lose too many models early. If she doesn’t, you maneuver your bikes into position to hit her on turn two along with the Guardians using the “Webway Strike” stratagem.As a result, 500 point games frequently have the mental intensity of a good chess match, which generally only happens in 2000pt play if both players are veterans with encyclopedic knowledge of one another's units. Arguably, Vypers and Walkers are the MOST efficient units at 500pts and both continue to be highly valuable in two thousand point play making them an excellent starting point for a collection. Another equally effective might be a unit of Rangers with a Shard Net using “Advanced Positions” to deploy behind an obscuring terrain piece while screening the midfield.

Once part of a galaxy-spanning empire, the Drukhari now indulge in every macabre passion their supreme intelligence can conceive. wounds from the attack I just described and then fight just as well as it did before it was damaged. It can also be difficult to kite an enemy army on such a small board, but Swooping Hawks and Baharroth can make it work with their insane redeployment options. On top of this we’ve given him a Singing Spear, which in melee hits and wounds on 2’s no matter the target doing a flat 3 damage. It comes armed with a Bright Lance for a little extra punch and it’s standard twin Shuriken Catapults.

Unlike in 2k games where you can afford some units in your list that are only there to screen or only there to score secondaries, in 500 point play every unit in your list needs to be able to reliably perform at least two of the following jobs: objective control, secondary scoring, target elimination, screening, trading up, buffing or debuffing key units. Now, the Guardians can be built as Storm Guardians with 1x Serpent’s Scale Platform, but we’re tabling that for now.

Another option- and I think a better option- is to use a “pawn” unit to force your opponent into a bad trade. This tray will hold one new (2022) version of the Aeldari Avatar of Khaine, one Fire Prism, one Tank (Wave Serpent, Night. Before the Aeldari get their turn, the Thousand Sons and Grey Knights are taking to the field with boxes of their own, both of which will be here in March.Inside you’ll find ten Guardians, a Heavy Weapon Platform, six Windriders, a Farseer, and a Wraithlord. When they’re within range of an objective they can re-roll hit rolls of 1 with their Shuriken Catapults.
