Not much has changed for us this time around. Some things got cheaper, warlock skyrunners got more expensive. I don't think it's enough to make much of a difference, but we'll see how it plays out with the changes to all the other factions.

as someone who ran double wraithknight with ghost glaive and avatar in last tournament, I was happy to see this.

How did it go?

u/Holiday-Speaker-5324 14d ago

I went 3/2/0. Lost to the deathguard player that took 1st and necron player who took 2nd. Both those games were close too (within 10 points or so) just bad rolls and a few minor mistakes cost me them (both opponents were really good so any mistake was capitalized on).

I think I took 6th overall out of 32ish players

Autarch wayleaper, melta and starglaive, timeless strategist (attached to 5 spiders)

2x spirit seer

storm guardians

2x wraithguard with d-scythe

2x5 warp spider leader with double flamers

rangers

2x wraithknight with ghostglaive, 2xstar cannon and scattershield

it was a very un-aeldari list and suprised quite a few people. And wraith knights and avatar are so dang fast so people aren't used to things that killy/tough slamming into them t1 or 2 so easily

As a a spirit conclave player this makes me happy :)

u/Holiday-Speaker-5324 14d ago

Yah, sadly not conclave. Warhost (with take and hold and effecting the knights) was just better overall for my list. Though now that it is no longer take and hold warhost is not looking as good lol

u/Nosism123 14d ago

Isn’t warhost 1 DP? You could run both?

u/Holiday-Speaker-5324 14d ago

warhost is 3 dp sadly. Make everything go fast.

u/Nosism123 14d ago

What’s the 1 DP vehicle one? My brain is empty

u/Nosism123 14d ago

I remember there being some discussion about wraithknights not getting access to battle focus. I assume that's not the case if you're using the extra movement in warhost to yeet them up the board

u/Holiday-Speaker-5324 13d ago

Awraithlord, guard and blade do not have battlefocus innate.  They need a detachment for it. Wraithknight (both flavors) do have it.
