1200 First try. New to the Dark Eldar (kind of). Help.please.

So I used to collect dark eldar way back in 5th edition and am getting back into the mix. Read some.of the new codex and fell in love with the DE all over again (I refuse to call them drukhari). I bought 2 2016 start collecting boxes and 1 2018 start collecting box and a couple.of rwjf. Correct me if I'm wrong but this seemed like a solid jumping off point after reading the new book. Coven stuff isnmy favorite but also totally sold.out everywhere so I will start collecting them whenever they become more available. Trying to make a decent list incorporating as much of the boxes as possible and here's what I came up with.

1200 on the nose. Let me know if this seems like a decent starting point. Archons roll with warriors in raiders, succubus hops a ride to keep up with wyches in venom, disembarking accordingly firming the bulk of the raiding party. 5 man kabal squad sits on an objective. Reavers and rwjf strike prime targets accordingly

Looks good mostly. The only thing I can think of is maybe ditch the splinter racks (since they're not that great) for either more warriors or splinter cannons on your razorwings? Or perhaps huskblades/agonisers for your archons if they ever need to support your wyches in melee. Speaking of which, definitely get that Succubus one of the fancy artifacts available to her because they're all pretty great.

Cool thanks for the reply. I'll drop those racks and tinker around with some stuff.
