[Siris Le Osiris]

Just looking for some feedback on this as a potential list
Eldar, Iyanden

Spiritseer, wraithforged stone


5 Dire Avengers
Wave Serpent with Scatter L , Holo feilds, Shur C

5 Dire Avengers
Wave Serpent with Scatter L , Holo feilds, Shur C


Wraithknight (Warlord)
Wraithknight




SM allies (White Scars)


Chapter master: sheild eternal, Art armour, bike, Thunder Hammer, Auspex


Bikes x 8
2x grav
Attack bike with MM


Thunderfire Cannon



Bikes can combat squad or not giving me 4 troops.
Wave serpents can hide behind a tech marine bostered defences on a ruined building for 2+ cover saves
2 Wraithknights plus a beatstick Chapter Master so I can play aggressively.

Only thing I would be concerned about is flyer spam but its hard to fit much AA into a tight 1600pt list.

This list is great. I would exchange the Thunderfire Cannon for a Hunter or Stalker, though. This would give you at least some dedicated anti-air. This will save you 30 points depending on which one you go with. I would use those points for Holo-Fields on the Wave Serpents. When you only have two Serpents any survivability buff becomes very useful.

Thanks Chex
Serpents already have holofeilds.

Reason I went for the thunderfire is it gives me a buff to a terrain piece from the tech marine for a 2+ cover (using holo feilfds) on the serpents if they can get behind it and some barrage to target a screamer star (Which I seem to find quite often)

But yea 1600 is tight on points to find something to deal with air and run 2 WK

I must have missed the Holo-Fields!

Wave Serpents do make for decent anti-air in a pinch. 7 S6 and D6+1 S7 (twin-linked) shots per Serpent can put out a surprising amount of hurt.

What do White Scars chapter tactics do for you? I would almost go with Iron Hands instead, making your units more resilient.

The extra cover save and hit and run were the targets so as not to get tied up in combat, plus I'm not a fan of Iron hands colours :P though they make for the best Chapter Master
