| Haven't played a ton of 8th edition lately but getting back into it with a friend who has been running the typical knights, imperial guard, and blood angels list. With him escalating how competitive our list are I wanted to put together something that can hopefully compete with him. However, without having a ton of experience with drukhari this edition, i wanted to check in with you guys for some feedback.
Black Heart Battallion
(1) Archon - venomblade, living muse (1) Archon - venomblade, blaster
(3) (5) Kabalite warriors - 1 blaster each
(3) Ravagers - 3x disintegrators each
(3) Razorwings - 2x disintegrators, 2x splinter rifles
(2) Raiders - 1x disintegrator
Spearhead - prophets of flesh (1) haemonculus
(3)(1) Talos - 2x macroscalpels, 2x haywire blasters
Battalion - alaitoc (1) farseer skyrunner - guide, doom (1) Warlock skyrunner - protect/jink
(3)(5) Rangers
This brings be up to 1994 which means drop a blaster and upgrade the haemonculus to rakarth, i could add 2 phantasm grenade launchers, or upgrade venom blades to agoniser or huskblade.
I also have lots of additional models, so i could drop a razorwing plus some other stuff and bring 2 more talos, or work things around to bring 2 venoms instead of one of the raiders. I also know that haywire scourges do particularly good against knights, so part of me wants to throw a few squads of those in since they are pretty cheap.
Lots of options I feel like are pretty solid, but without play testing, i'm not quite sure what i am going to be lacking.
Thoughts? | |

| Looks like a normal Comp Aeldari list, GL!
If you only have 1 Haemonculus i dont like to have Urien, b.c i like the PoF Relic a lot and i honestly cant see myself not taking it.
RWJF are also very good, i would keep them. _________________ New to Blogging, just starting https://maddpaint.blogspot.com/

| While vector mask is good, I think it helps Grotesques more than Talos. +1 STR provided by Urien will serve these Talos better IMO. | |

| I think you are only allowed to take two flyers in a battalion. You could add an airwing detachment gaining another cp. Beside that little issue - very competitive list. | |

You are correct, he can only av 2 per Detachment. He has 3 Detachments already so he will have to drop a Detachment or a Flyer. _________________ New to Blogging, just starting https://maddpaint.blogspot.com/

| Thanks for the responses. So, i could drop 1 flyer, upgrade the haemonculus to urien, and add another talos to one of the units which would leave me 20-30 points to work with depending on archon upgrades.
Alternatively, i could have moved one of the razorwings to the coven spearhead detachment, but it would just have no benefit from the obsession. I could also try drop 1 raider, and replace it with two venoms and throw a 5 man unit in each instead of 2 man units in the raider.
I played the previous list this weekend, and was pretty happy with it, the razorwings were much better than i expected which makes me not really want to lose one now.

| Never lose your Obsessions.
Just take 2 and add in more models.
If you want to keep them, drop 1 RWJF and get a Hemlock/Crim Hunter, they are really strong too, but you are like 60pts behind then, so you will need to remove something else.
And Alaitoc Hemlock is insanely strong. _________________ New to Blogging, just starting https://maddpaint.blogspot.com/
