Dark Eldar - 2k


Ta-da! My first 2k for Dark Eldar.

I wanted to avoid the freak show stuff as I don't care for it. I also enjoy fast assault units and the dynamic poses of the Wyches, so I piled up on those for my core. To buff their combat drugs I have taken the Duke, with Lelith in there to really ramp up the combat damage when they hit.

In support I have a couple of Trueborn units, one with dedicated anti tank blaster power while the other pumps out 3+ Poison thanks to the Duke. Both enjoy the wind in their hair via a venom with cannons. A dedicated shooty warrior squad will target large volumes of troops, hence the disintegrator and splinter wracks.

Support comes in the form of Ravagers and a Razorwing. While 3 Ravagers would have been cool, I just really like the Razorwing model and the fact it can go supersonic. It puts out templates too, which may come in handy against horde.

This list will get some testing next month when I can get it all built. Also need to think about colors...

  1. I like it.. but not something that I can play so well since I'm so used to MSU.

    About them wyches - why just 8 and PWeapon?

  2. I'm just trying out a few things. 8 for a squad size was a bit random but allowed me points for the Trueborn. The PWeapons are just an experiment too. The Duke buffs combat drugs so have a good chance of getting the one I want. That helps balance the need for an Agonizer. We'll see. New army so nothing set in stone here!
