This Saturday (2/27) I'm playing in a tournament at Murfreesboro, TN. It's the Battle For Stone's River in commemoration of the Civil War battle of the same name. Usually around 50-60 players - so pretty big tourney. I had originally planned to run my Death Guard army - but in play testing they were not performing well (I lost 4 straight games). So...going to make a switch to Eldar - figuring I can't do any worse - and maybe better as a lot of the missions have mobility needs that Eldar fulfill the best of all. List is 1863 points (the year of the battle). Here's what I'm taking....

thats a ton of kill points
True - but a lot in fairly survivable stuff (Serpents/Falcons).
Missions involve a lot of taking/holding stuff - first one there, who's there at the end, etc - more so than kill point related - so not so worried about them. Here's a link to the missions:
