@Durin 1) do eldar casualties effect their view of us?
1a) if so how much?

2) are casualties on this scale relevant to their ability to project force?

3) do major casualties against turoq make the battles against the dark mech measurably harder?
 
[X] Wait until Turoq lands then launch major attack- Highest chance of killing Turoq, rapid defeat of Turoq's forces, moderate ground losses and major naval losses

I'm going to go for the slightly more balanced option, still gives us a high chance of killing him but lessens the losses the Eldar will take. Less Eldar losses means in the short term that they can have more of an impact on the rest of the invasion, long term it also helps with our reputation with them which is also important.

Besides if Turoq did somehow manage to escape the Eldar i suspect that would annoy them and bump him up their target priority list anyway so I don't see him lasting much longer.
 
So, if we go all in disregarding casualties from turoq, then we have to be more cautious with the dark mech to avoid losses that affect eldar opinion.

[X] Have warhost reinforce Muspelheim- Rapid victory in Muspelheim, light naval losses

Presumably we can send them after Turoq after.

@Durin, in Warhammer Total War there's a character trait called Fears Humans. The flavour text is "There is a reason the Dark Gods are hell-bent on the destruction of man…"

1. In Embers, what would it take for an ork to get that trait?
2. What about a daemon?

@Durin If we tell the other Chaos, Ork, or other hostile realms around us that Turoq has committed a significant force against us, What are the chances they attack his realm? They attack us? They do something else that may or may not benefit us?
