Today at econocon I fielded three lone wolves. I just wanted to let the hilarity of the 2nd round be known. First, the deployment was DoW so my lone wolves had to start from own table edge and walk across the board. Second, the objective was kill points so if they don't die they are giving up kill points. Finally, what made it funny was the opponent had a footdar list consisting of dire avengers and guardians, in other words no way of killing my lone wolves in combat (he was not dumb enough to shoot at them). It was pretty much my worst nightmare scenario for a list with three lone wolves.

Ya, that seemed like a good close game though with the only real problem was those darn lone wolves.

Ross, Dawn of War really messes with your army on multiple levels.
Who won? The Eldar?

Yeah, all in all the eldar list he used wasn't horrible, but IMO he used too many troops. 2 full squads of avengers on foot (duel cats, blade storm) and 2 squads of guardians on foot with a star cannon. Eldrad and a farseer, squad of reaper with a missile launcher exarch (fast shot) squad of 5 dragons in a BL serpant, and a squad of 10 banshees in a BL serpant (eldrad attached).
Unfortunately for him they didn't stand up well too a turn 1 grey knight assult, but I can see how he could overlook your lone wolves in that scenario considering what else you had in your list Ross
