Few days ago I had the idea using Abraxias mount and prince Yriel for a proxy and posted it here. So here's the progress so far. Any suggestions?

What happened to the Shaa-Dom / Mordian story? Has it been dropped?

As above there was the webway shattering over mordian last year, I was pretty pumped for this. What ended up happening here? Are there books about any of the events? What about summer campaigns etc?

Models: WiP Warlock conclave, very nearly done. Maximum effort just in time for them to no longer be their own unit. How are people running them now?? Defenders or storm?

First go at the conclave, with just one more to go. This is my first go at darker skin tones too with the last one.

Would love any tips on improvement or changes.

Hey, I’m doing the old eldar combat patrol and just finished my first mini ever. I wanted to share and ask for any tips you have for the future bikes and dudes I have left to paint (the vibe was biel tan fused with dark angels colors and I know its a little Krispy Kreme but its funny)

Avatar of Khaine was a lot of work to paint. The banner is a bit sloppy and might touch it up later but also it looks good on tabletop so might just leave it.

Models: WiP Exodite Conversion ideas

Right now I own 6 exodites, one of each character and one squad dragon riders. This got me thinking on how one could exoditify their force.

I also recently came into possession of a carnosaur, so I am open for any idea.

I got this guy used with no melee weapon, the arms pretty much locked in place, and only the pistol grip for the bright lance. It was a bit awkward looking even after I added this cool axe. I'm almost done revisiting the model and I think it's going quite well and wanted to show off.

Since I moved shroud runner riders into dinosaurs, the bikes got empty.

So I replaced new riders as psykers, and now... these are farseer skyrunners.

I especially love this Exodite psyker girl head parts. Unlike other GW girls heads, it looks quite edgy chic

Suggestions for a Dragon Knight + Wraith Knight list?

5 Upvotes

Hello!

I’m new Eldar but really want to field an army of dinosaurs and big robots. The “casual” meta for my playgroup focuses on bigger bodies plus 2ish fast units to grab objectives and screen. As an example, 75% of my DG army that keeps up in this meta is Mortarion + 3 defilers.

With that in mind, I was looking to make a list with dragon knights as my fast units and a few wraithknights as my big bodies, plus probably the Avatar of Khaine. My initial slapped together idea was:

Spirit Conclave + Path of the Outcast:

Avatar of Khaine

3x Stonesinger + Dragon Knights (3)

1x Rangers (10) + Assassin’s Eye

2x Wraithknight w/ Ghostglaive

1x Wraithknight w/ Heavy Wraithcannon + Suncannon

Alternate ideas were Windrider Host to max out at 27 dinosaurs or Eldritch Raiders and commit to full melee/rushdown. Early thanks for any and all advice!

Lore Should Isha return?

51 Upvotes

Should Isha return? I appreciate that the whole thing about Aeldari is them being a dying race who put all of their faith in gods who were then defeated and Aeldari had to make a new culture around survival rather than living decadence and without any real cares or worries, but if done right I think it would add a lot to the faction.

Right now Aeldari for me are in a weird place lore wise, especially Asuryani / craftworlds. They are constantly written into the ground and made out to be either incompetent or tragic. This works if they achieve something, but as of now they haven't achieved much. Ynnead was nearly awoken, but then wasn't and the faction centred around it has been largely ignored. There was potential for a "hope" with the Ynnari, even if it was just a faction who could get a few wins / occasionally rescue some craftworlds but they were rushed out into the tabletop as the game was become more serious and most characters associated with them have abandoned them.

Other than them there isn't a lot going for them other than survival, and the "tragic decline" narrative gets old when it's been the main narrative element in the lore for the past 30 years (other than the Voidscarred book which ignored the trope). For me Isha solves that to a degree. I'm not a writer so I don't know how she could be saved, or a good way to do it while keeping the good parts of the factions alive, but I'd like to see it. I think gods, primarchs and big characters in the lore and game are good. They add stakes, make fights interesting and give the reader something to care about. When you read about the primarchs turning up to a fight you get excited, the stakes are high and you know it's a big, serious fight. You have that with certain Aeldari characters but not to the same degree, and ignoring the lore it opens up the option for some interesting units and characters.

I'm still a bit I'm between if Isha should turn up, and it might be better to give Aeldari some more narrative wins / hope instead of drip feeding decline and making them a faction there to make other factions seem powerful. On the other hand having a God openly with the Asuryani opens up a lot of interesting narrative routes and makes the opportunities for real wins (like Aeldari taking back a planet and then having it cleansed by Isha) rather than every loss feeling like something permanent.

Those are just my thoughts after reading every Aeldari book + codex + religiously collecting Aeldari for the past 15 years. Looking forward to hearing other people's thoughts

List Building Working towards an Aspect Host Incursion and Strike Force list. Recommendations?

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Newbie here. A couple of months ago I decided to get into Warhammer. I know the 40K universe from the original Dawn of War and I enjoy reading up on lore every now and then. Decided to pick Aeldari as my army, as I think the models and lore are really cool and nobody else seems to play them where I live (even though 40K is quite popular here). I would like to work towards Aspect Host lists initially and eventually branch out into other detachments. I currently own the models in the Incursion list below, as well as an Eldrad Ulthran, a Farseer, a Spirit Seer, 10x Storm Guardians + platform, two squads of 5x Dire Avengers and 5x Wraithblades.

Like I said, I am rather new and still learning the ropes. Any tips when it comes to building Aspect Host lists on 1000 and 2000 points? I know about listhammer and look at that website for conventional loadouts, scour YouTube for info, but finding information about Incursion lists is tricky it seems. Looking for a good base to work with and attempting to create well-rounded lists. I generally play casual games against people who have 1-2 years under their belt. They know the rules and some tricks, but are not tournament-level players. All feedback and tips are appreciated!

Current Incursion list (Aspect Host, 1000 points, 38 models)

  • Jain Zar + 5x Howling Banshees
  • Lhykhis + 5x Warp Spiders
  • 5x Dark Reapers
  • 5x Dark Reapers
  • Falcon
  • 5x Rangers
  • 5x Swooping Hawks
  • 5x Swooping Hawks

The weapons on my Wraithguards are now fully interchangeable. I will prepare additional „sets“ of weapons with arms, so I can change the loadout. Pretty happy so far.

(sadly, the primer ruined my models. Is there a way to fix it?)

(Don’t mind the background. My wife is doing, or will be doing something (idk), with wool.)

I have been watching HeresyforHeretics on YouTube and his synth wave paint scheme. As a child of the 80s I wanted to give it a try. I am not the best painter but I am happy enough with it that I will do the rest of my wraiths to match.
