I dont find them to hard to play but again I rarely use them. A new codex would change that. For a short time anyway...

Indeed, I would have all but one Eldar army if only they would put the new ones out. When they do, if they release an Army box, I will get three of them. 3nodding

Simple plan really but I have to curb my spending for a bit. So it will be a while...

I will not have as much time or cash to put into it.

I need help with my army. well, more the story.
They're the '5th seikern rangers' [My own type]
I've got most of the units, and stuff, down and sorted. I mainly need volunteers to be characters.. or characters written up that i can use (without being sued at a later date, as i'm making a story too)
I'm using grenadiers, and plan to have a full 50 storm troopers by the end of it all.
Any suggestions how i can equip them up nicely? Mainly for anti-space marine, and anti-tau.
Thanks for any help given.

That is the best I can do, as I still need help with my own group. xd

When I played grenadiers plasma was my best friend. My grenadier squads had 2 plasma guns, and the sergeant had a plasma pistol and power fist. That's my advice.

Just wondering if anybody here has played a droop troops army, i've just started an Elysian Drop Troops army and i was wondering if anybody had any pointers. Mainly i'm looking for ways to compensate for my lack of heavy support. I usually field as many tanks as possible but with this army i can't take any.
Cheers!

Already about to purchase some lovely Elysian sentinals from forge world, i've just got to finish painting my HQ and first platoon. I was also thinking about investing in a Vulture Gunship or two.
Cheers!

With all Infantry armies you just need to focus on throwing as much Plasma and Melta at your opponent as you can. Luckily all Stormtroopers already have Krak Grenades, dont' they? Against other Imperial players those are actually pretty effective, but they stink against pretty much every Xenos army (Eldar, Dark Eldar, Necrons, Tau specifically) on account of how difficult it is to hit a skimmer in close combat. Hence the Meltaguns. You will fall in love with them.

Although when eldar always have a higher initiative it is always best to have frag grenades if you play guard so that way if the enemy is in cover your guardsmen get to hit first instead of second...

Nope, it raises the initiative of both to 10, thus making it so they strike simultaneously, not first. xd
