The Eldar Fire Prism is a long range tank ideally suited to destroying targets with reinforced armour. It is fairly lightly armoured, so it’s best in cover and away from the front line.
Interests: Board Wargames / Hobbyists
Warp Spiders
Warp Spiders are extremely versatile assault orientated infantry capable of shredding formations of lower armoured troops before a shot is fired in return. A popular tactic is to emerge from Storm Serpent Webway gates and use their considerable assault range to hit unsupported or unprepared enemy targets.
Spiritseer
A Spirit Seer leads Wraithguard units into battle. They provide initiative bonuses to their formation, as well as providing powerful close combat attacks.
Rangers
Eldar Rangers are perfect for slowing an enemy advance or protecting a more valuable friendly unit. They are cheap and can often tie up enemy units worth many times the Rangers cost.
Pathfinders
Pathfinders more powerful Eldar Rangers, deployed by the Alaitoc Craftworld.
Heavy Weapon Platform
Heavy Weapon platforms give Guardian formations some decent ranged firepower. They can be deployed in number to switch a Guardian formation from a largely assault orientated role, to a defensive objective guard.
Fire Dragons
Eldar Fire Dragons are excellent anti-vehicle specialists, and their Fusion Guns will melt all but the heaviest armour with ease. If an Exarch is added to an Aspect Warrior unit, it’s common to use a Fire Dragon to confer his extra attack.
Exarch
An Exarch can further increase the effectiveness of an Aspect Warrior unit. Depending on the Aspect they belong to, they are close combat or fire fight orientated. The latter are more popular, as they have more chance of surviving an engagement.
Lunar Class Cruiser
The Lunar Class Cruiser has Orbital Bombardment capability, and a focused pin-point attack useful for taking out War Engines. Careful consideration should be given as to whether a super heavy tank would prove more cost effective.
Macharius
The Macharius Heavy Tank is an excellent all-rounder. Its Battle Cannon will cause heavy damage to both infantry and armour at long range, and Heavy Bolters and Twin Heavy Stubbers will mop up infantry that gets too close.
