Return of the Eldar Clown Party

In 2007 I built and painted (and used) the only Xenos army I have really had. By 'had', I mean not bought via eBay/people and actually used in tournaments.

It was based around several troupes of Harlequins, led by Eldrad (at higher points I added in an Autarch as well), supported by Shining Spears (Harlequins on jetbikes) and War Walkers with scatter lasers (yes scatter lasers, not starcannons, after all it wasn't 2nd/3rd ed). I had to take 2x troops so that ended up being Pathfinders... well, because. Just because.

I ran an army 'blog' on WargamerAU. ... .  suffice to say I can tell you, I was not very good at using this particular army. I think now (nearly 10 years later) I'd possibly be a bit more ruthless but back then I was still a Space Wolf at heart so charge etc. <except T3 5++ save = die more>. Mind you I did win a Best Sport at a GT and also Best Army with them so it wasn't all bad. And they did Bad BAD things to a certain Deathwing army... <sigh>

Here are some photos I dragged out of my hard drive

Great Harlequin Tre'sidda 

Very Metal Eldrad conversion

Troupe A

Troupe B

Shining Spears... so good... yet so crap

One of my favourite conversions ever

Very fluffy Pathfinders

Anyway... I did laugh when the new Harlequin codex came out, but not as much as when I saw Death Masque. Eldrad leading a Harlequin troupe... 

I just want to say "You saw it here first/I TOLD YOU SO" :)
