What's your solution to the Wraithlords and Avatar? I'm not seeing a lot of monstrous creature busting mayhem. Are you planning on Death wing Assaulting your terminators onto the table and hoping the Land Speeders and Dreadnoughts don't get face rocked by the array of eldar dancing around them and shooting them? Give me an idea of your tactical approach.

I am not being a critical douche, though the words may seem that way, just over using hyperbole again

Honestly with all the assault cannons, cyclone missile launchers and melta from the speeders I dont think he would have a hard time with MCs

err, um... well, powerfists work well against wraithlords.

Lots of shooting works against an avatar...

I'd be more concerned about the dancing around. The assault cannons make Eldar dance, however.

my concern is IF he's using deathwing assault, he's only got the two speeders and dreads on the table vs. an entire 2000 point eldar army. Power fists, cyclones, and other equpiment won't matter if they don't get to deploy since he's gotten tabled. even on a good day, the eldar are more mobile than a deathwing heavy dark angels list.

My Plan as it stands is to DWA Belial, Liberian & 10 man squad to take out his farseer/warlocks in turn one (so the wraithlords will need to roll for wraithsight each turn.

The 3 DW squads with the 2 Dreds will start on the table with the speeder/dreds in cover/behide LOS then form up and work together to hold objects and take out the wave serpents, the speeders I am going to use take out the wraithlords and then move onto the Avatar.

If my maths is correct, I should hopefully be able to take out 1 wraithlord and 1 wave serpent in the 1st turn (including passages), the idea also is the challange the Farseer with my Liberian in order to gain prefered enemy (porta rack) for the 10man DW and Belial.
