1 · Start here

Spiritseer, 10 Dire Avengers, 5 Warp Spiders, 5 Wraithblades

🛒 Shop this box ↗

2 · Complete your army ~1,000 pts (Incursion)

The Craftworlds box (Spiritseer, Dire Avengers, Warp Spiders, Wraithblades) is a fragile foot core with no transport, no big guns, and no Farseer. Aeldari live and die on mobility, so a Wave Serpent and artillery are near-mandatory.

Wave Serpent x1 Near-mandatory transport to deliver fragile infantry safely — the box has none. 🛒

Farseer x1 Auto-include psyker leader for Doom/Jinx debuffs that the box lacks entirely. 🛒

Night Spinner x1 Staple artillery / firepower (same kit as Fire Prism) — the army's main ranged threat. 🛒

Howling Banshees x1 Fast melee Aspect Warriors to add a dedicated assault element. 🛒

3 · Competitive core — what winning lists run

Built from top-placing tournament lists (Tabletop Battles' Competitive Innovations) over the last ~8 weeks — a data-driven competitive core.
