Hi this is my current army it managed to annihilate the Necrons in a 550 point game :

3 x Reavers...................................................93pts
- 1 Blaster
- 1 Arena Champion /w Venom Blade

10 x Kabalite Warriors...................................290pts
- 1 Blaster
- 1 Splinter Cannon
- 1 Lelith Hesperax tagged onto the unit

8 x Kabalite Warriors.......................................87pts
- 1 Blaster

1 x Raider........................................................80pts
- Disintegrator Cannon
- Night Shield
- Flickerfield

Total.................................................................550pts

This seams to be the best formula i have used so far, i also have around another 15 Kabalite Warriors. I am unsure as what to buy next to take the army to a 750/1000 pts, I will mainly be playing against Necrons but would like it to be useful against other armies as well.
I like the look of the Harlequins /w death jesters and shadowseer, or the possibilities with beast masters etc. or possibly incubi and i think i need some heavy support.

Any help/ advice on my current army but mainly what you think i should buy next would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance.

My advice would be to grab some sort of CC unit to stick lelith in since she is wasted with warriors, Harlies would be good but make sure you give them kisses and a shadowseer.
The biggest thing you need though would be heavy support and transports. You need to get some ravengers and or razorwings and some rides be they venoms or raiders since a dismounted darkeldar is a dead dark eldar.
Cheers and good luck man!

First off you need more AT. Ravagers are good starts for small games because of how cheap they are points wise. After that I would look into expanding your troops slot w/ transports. DE is a heavily meched army, and will stay that way no matter what the edition does to tanks.

Also here is an easy sample list that I gave to new players that worked really well in 5th edition. I havent tried it out yet in 6th (been too busy learning the rules and modifying my current lists to bother) but it should still do well comparitively.

SRs Patented Beginners List

150- Archon w/ Huskblade, Soultrap, Shadowfield, Combat Drugs, Haywires
223- 9 Wyches w/ Haywires, 1 Shardnet, Hekatrix w/ Agoniser; Raider w/ Flickerfields, Shock Prow
245- 10 Wyches w/ Haywires, 2 WW (so razorflails or gauntlets, whichever you like), Hekatrix w/ Agoniser; Raider w/ Flickerfields, Shock Prow
190- 10 Warriors w/ Blaster, Splinter Cannon; Raider w/ Flickerfields, Splinter Racks
190- 10 Warriors w/ Blaster, Splinter Cannon; Raider w/ Flickerfields, Splinter Racks
78- 3 Reavers w/ Heat Lance
78- 3 Reavers w/ Heat Lance
115- Ravager w/ Flickerfield
115- Ravager w/ Flickerfield
115- Ravager w/ Flickerfield

Total: 1499 pts

This list is made up of 2 battleforces, 2 raiders, 3 ravagers, and an Archon Blister. Its really cheap money wise, and will show you pretty much everything about DE. From here you can mold this list into whatever your hearts desire.

As for changes to 6th... I guess I would give the Archon a power axe instead of a huskblade, the soul trap, and some random upgrades. With the points left over I would probably buy 1 plane (maybe a razorwing in such a low point value) just for some AA.


Secondly I would just keep increasing your point values. The more games you get, the more you start to understand how the game is played, and the better you get. GL and HF raiding!!!
