They look great, their fluff is awesome and always used to love out flanking them. Plus like you mentioned an Eldar unit that is str 4 is a big deal.<br /><br />But they would fail every time, die to a stray heavy bolter/beaten in combat by a sentinal/chased down by a lone devestator marine they out numbered 5-1....<br /><br />It always felt like humouring an idiot whenever they did something right though (as rare as it was) with all the praise I would pour on them.<br /><br />Cheers of 'Yeah! go scorpions, you managed to kil that squad of guard a third of your points cost!'.<br /><br />And when it came to selling the army I did toy with keeping the scorpions over anything else.<br /><br />Matt said it best when he said 'cool before rule' and I would field scorpions any day of the week purely for cool.<br /><br />It has just occured to me I could run a striking scorpion themed killteam for next year!!<br />Cheers for the spark of inovation, I'm off to find an Eldar dex!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11873560601831579908noreply@blogger.com
