You do realize that that brings a huge advantage to eldar VP wise? Not that they are exactly suffering in map control even without gates. not exactly, you can keep 2 of the VP's under your control gates or no gates. it only get's tricky if you try to stretch your forces and get everything. actually...

A high level eldar player can destroy you with 1 gate placement, on your side of the map. I'm aware. I've done it myself. I realise that gates have a pretty damn big effect on the battle. It may well be un-balanced as it is atm, I am not 100% sure. What I'm trying to convey is that if there's a way...

You don't always want those squad leaders! Rangers are never a bad addition and you get them vs cloaking heroes. are you trying to be funny? squad leaders are never a bad addition either. they are not always necessary, people leave them out often in grenade tics but they are still useful. And no, m...

Really nice art. nice one

2. Gate cost used to be 35 red? I don't think it was ever that low, I thought it was always around the 50 to 75 mark. If anything gates had received a small cost decrease because they were not seen at all for a while in retail. hum, well i don't know where i got this from then. sorry. And herein li...

I think through the Riku-Name exchange we have established that webway gates are extremely effective for 50 red. Originally I proposed that we boost their red cost to 75, revert previous exp/build time changes and add a minute long cooldown to the global, just to prevent spamming, which certainly c...

So let us try this one more time for shits and giggles. 1. "Easy" to get? IG: 30/40 power Eldar: 30power SM,Chaos,Orks, Nids: 25 power I don't see how the others are "easier" to get. They are more common is what i mean, a chaos player will almost always have a tic squad around a...

1 Yes, the ARE. Rangers are the best detectors in the game. Not only do they detect further than all other detectors but they also provide you with A LOT of SNIPER dps AND a knockback ability across the map. Don't even get me started once you upgrade them. I'm not talking about quality of detector....

rune armor - Would people forgo it if it lacked the ability but was a bit cheaper? No, rune armour in retail was pretty much mandatory if you wanted to use guide/doom or guide/stones. just not enough energy otherwise. The change to rune armour/runes of reaping surprised me the most in elite tbh, th...

cooldown wouldn't fix anything, one good warp throw=dead unit, and that is totally NOT fair. that's just dow2 for you. comboes can wipe units. it's not like warp throw is the only thing that can do this. could also reduce the range of warp-throw, warlock is fairly tanky so he ought to be able to st...

Had a game against Metroidd, he bought a tdread to counter my WL, i bought brightlance and the Tdread was basically dead. Just moved forward took three missiles started bashing it in melee, he tried to run but he couldn't do shit because of the BL... This thing needs to have reduced accuracy i obse...

their issues have more to do with being expensive to reinforce and dieing all the time. pairs are quite good against melee walkers though. 2 squads of expensive fire dragons to kite a walker between them isn't viable. they can't handle infantry after-wards either since they die too quick even if th...

very few people other than the eldar know the paths of the webway. it would turn into a cluster fuck because gates are limited to 4 squads. i've already had issues with that with allies. so remove the limit. the limit almost never has an actual effect on troop movemens in single player so it won't ...

i'm against letting everyone into gates because of the lore, and because it would become a cluster fuck. anyone can travel in the webway, it's why gates that get discovered get destroyed by the eldar rather than left/abandoned (often) and also present a great risk if not destroyed, there was a tabl...

IMHO Wraithlord is very good as is it. Don't need a free upgrade. About the flamer... but the ultra sophisticated and evolved Eldar use something so outdated and primitive like fire in combat? :shock: They don't. This can't get added on the basis that it is very unfluffy the 6th edition eldar codex...

I'm really not a fan of the 'make gates more expensive' idea people have. So i was thinking, what if gates were accessible to the enemy as well? So if someone bothers to send a spotter round the map and finds a gate, he'll be able to enter it and see where all the gates are and if he's quick also mo...
