Version: v2.50

Below you will find quickplay armies for the Elven Jesters from Grimdark Future universe.

Note: as v2.50 is in constant development the following might not be accurate.

Jesters (300pts)

This is a v2.50 list that can be built using a Harlequin Troupe box from Games Workshop, or any other models of your choice.

This list is designed as an all-comers list, able to fight just about anything and have a good chance. Some amount of care will need to be taken versus Lock-On weapons, and particularly high-quality units, as both can easily bypass your Stealth by either ignoring it outright, or by having a high enough Quality that the -1 to-hit does not matter. Battle Brothers and Sisters, for instance, can easily access Q2+ shooting either via their Veteran upgrade, or Celestial upgrade and Devout special rule, and typically have at least AP1 weapons, putting all of your models onto a 6+ armor save. In melee, your 3+ Defense due to Dodge makes melee a very safe option, and one you will need to take at every opportunity, as most of your damage comes from it due to the melee upgrades and Furious. You can safely hold your models back in cover before charging due to your models' 16" charge range and ability to ignore some terrain. Prioritize heroes or particularly dangerous models with your Deadly weapons, as you can very easily knock out a special weapon holder or Stun a hero due to the 3 damage.
