I haven't played a game in over 10 years and I don't know the rules all that well, so I joined a tourney. Ok not one of my smartest moves and to add to the stupidity of this action I chose to play Eldar (the only Eldar player), but I figured it would be the best way to learn.
The tourney officially starts next week, but last night a bunch of us got together to have a rumble. It was pretty fun and the players at my table were pretty helpful and shared their knowledge with me. (Thanks, Ryan, Nate and Nick).
It was a good game and I was well schooled. I learned first hand last night, that eldar skimmers are like sharks. If they don't keep moving, they will die and mine did. On the second to the last turn I kept my serpents and prisms stationary (Sorry Autarch Fritz, I should have listened), they didn't survive the turn.
So I lost quite a bit of my army, but it was still fun. I must say that the Dire Avengers with Bladestorm more that made up for their point cost.
All in all, a great night.
