Strategy.
Wyches go in the raider. Trueborns in Venom.
I hope to get 1st turn by only havin 4 units on the table. The mandrakes will Deepstrike, most likely on turn 1.
My voidraven will protect one of my flanks from deepstriking charges. I would like some razorwings on my other flank, but will risk it.
Once the battle commences, i will try to play the range game for a turn or two, where i hope to take out armour, if he brings it. Depending on deployment, i will try to flank him will all the units(not as easy anymore as we cant turboboost as far as we used to). The wyches will linger on the flank if its raider survives long enough for them to get the charge on a bared unit.
I worry if i brought too much darklight and too little poison.
Thoughts and advice?
Pardon formatting and thick thumbs, as i am on the phone this morning.
