[Squeeking up on people]

Hi there,
I have a 2k (1k per player) team tournament coming up and I am trying to decide which list of the three to go with. There are some rules for army comp, no superheavies or gargantuan creatures, you must take
a CAD (Harlis have an exception) can only take a formation once, only one flyer.

Also unfortunately I do not have any scat bike so that is out, though I do have a seer council.

My partner will either be playing orcs or skitari, so I am trying to come up with a good list to compliment his strengths.

Anyway here are the lists I am deciding between, please forgive the intermittent point values, I believe we are supposed to keep basic unit points off the list correct?:

Is your Seer Council mounted on jetbikes or on foot ?

If on jetbikes ...

1. Skyrunner Seer Council (2 Farseers, 4 Warlocks)

2. CAD with 2 x 5 Rangers and a Skyrunner Autarch w. Faolchu's Wing

3. Aspect Host (like you posted them, but ditch the EML on the Exarch)

Fits into 1.000 pts.




After lengthy testing I feel like ... Harlequins are simply not really effective when played on their own and get shot of the table easily.
They work best in a supportive role, selecting one or maybe two formations of choice to support a Craftworld or DE list (though they work best in supporting Haemonculus Coven armies).
They might work in conjunction with an orc list ... though I'm still not fond of the Masque Detachment.

They are on bikes so that is an option thanks!

Yeah I just have 30 Harlis models and was trying o think of a list to support an ork assault list. I figure I would shoot for invisibility for the council right? Use them as a beat stick.

I am a little worried about av 14 but that could be solved by my ork buddy.
