Message Failed to Send

Message Failed to Send (still untitled Aldari Crusade)

Welp... the messenger didn't manage to warn my forces about an impending crisis. The Autarch messenger was able to withstand a lot of damage and earned himself MVP points. 

Farseer Skyrunner being able to throw around -1 to wound is very powerful, but the Windriders just make him harder to hide and don't really have the guns to be scary at the moment. I'm swapping them for some Shroud Runners which for some reason are the same amount of points (I'm not sure why you'd ever take Windriders with scatter lasers), and tanks in cover was surprisingly resilient. 

I'm going to keep the scar on the Guardian Defenders because the prospect of them gaining one more scar and turning in to Wraithguard is just too cool.

I also haven't been keeping track of the kill tally for each unit, but maybe I should.

Guiding Fate:

Threat level: 3


Destined Device (dawning):

Be it a powerful and ancient relic or the most inconsequential component of a larger machine, a nexus offate whirls about this object. If it remains at large, it will one day become part of a terrible threat.


BURIED PROVENANCE

If the device is never discovered, its perilous potential will never be realised.


Rising Nemesis (dawning):

A hidden foe has been revealed. Though they do not yet realise the peril they will present if left unmolested, will one day endanger the craftworld itself; this must be prevented by any means.


SOW DISSENT

A divided enemy looks only inwards to their own faults and preys upon themselves.


Cleanse the Corruption (Waning)

An alien cult, a ravenous swarm, a supernatural plague, a fanatical faith; whatever its nature, some insidious influence is spreading and will render swathes of space dangerous to the Aeldari if it is not halted and destroyed.:


FOLLOW THE TRAIL

The warning may have been lost, but it can still be traced back to its source.

10th Edition Aeldari Crusade (untitled)

10th Edition Aeldari Crusade (untitled)


I don't know how many attempts at a crusade/narrative slow grow we've done, but this time I'm actually going to try and keep track of it. The 10th edition crusade rules for Eldar Aledai are pretty much agenda based so hopefully this doesn't get too out of hand. Maybe some interesting narrative stuff will happen. Who knows.
