So I'm just returning to 40k after a very long break and have decided to collect a Dark Eldar army.

The fluff is a work in progress but the basic premise is a cult that has sought to perfect the deadly arts in service of Khaine. Since the fall they have waged a holy war against the forces of Chaos. Not only fighting Chaos head on, they also wage war across the galaxy, devouring the souls of their victims in the name of Khaine and thus denying sustenance to the nefarious Ruinous Powers. The members of the Cult believe that one day Khaine will be resurrected and lead their armies in a final battle against the Chaos gods. The secret to this resurrection is of course the shards of their defeated god, and since the fall the cult has searched tirelessly for fallen craftworlds in the hopes of salvaging the craftworld's avatar (and remaining wraithconstructs). Through bloody rituals tormented souls are bound to these constructs such that they may fight alongside the cult's warhosts, led by the similarly awakened avatars.

Lot's of fun to be had fleshing out the background, but anyway here's the list:

5 Wraithguard + Wraithseer w/ Conceal 221

10 Warriors + 1 Splinter Cannon 100
Raider + Splinter Racks 70
5 Wyches + Haywire Grenades 60
Venom + Splinter Cannon 65
5 Wyches + Haywire Grenades 60
Venom + Splinter Cannon 65
12 Hellions 192
5 Pathfinders 120

2 Beastmasters + 5 Khymera + 2 Razorwings 114

Talos + Chain Flails + CCW + TL Heat Lance 135
Talos + Chain Flails + CCW + TL Heat Lance 135
Talos + Chain Flails + CCW + TL Haywire Blaster 130
Wraithlord + Scatter Laser + Shuriken Cannon 120

TOTAL: 1847 pts

An alternate variation makes some cuts in order to max out the wraithguard squad and make them scoring:

Baron 105

10 Kabalite Warriors + 1 Splinter Cannon 100
Raider + Splinter Racks 70
12 Hellions 192
5 Wyches + Haywire Grenades 60
Venom + Splinter Cannon 65
5 Wyches + Haywire Grenades 60
Venom + Splinter Cannon 65
10 Wraithguard + Wraithseer w/ Enhance + Singing Spear 399

1 Beastmaster + 4 Khymera + 2 Razorwings 90

Talos + Chain Flails + CCW + TL Haywire Blaster 130
Talos + Chain Flails + CCW + TL Haywire Blaster 130
Chronos + Spirit Vortex 100
Wraithlord + Scatter Laser + Shuriken Cannon 120

TOTAL: 1841 pts


For either list the warriors, wyches, hellions and beasts will use their mobility to overwhelm a flank and herd crowds toward the MCs, which will advance with the wraithguard and kill everything in sight. I'd love to find a way to get some nightshields on the vehicles but can't see where to free up the points (other than dropping the extra CCW from the Taloi).

Suggestions? Which list looks better?
