| Hi all, I am returning to 40k after about 10 years out, I've read through the pros and cons of each army in 6th editions and feel that Dark Eldar play style fits me perfectly. Anyhow the local club is doing a 500 point league next month and I'm looking to use this list. Can you advise what i need to change as the changes 40k has gone through is insane? - Code:
-
+++ No Name (498pts) +++ +++ 500pt Dark Eldar 6th Ed (2010) Roster (Primary Detachment)) +++
Selections:
Dark Eldar 6th Ed (2010) (Primary Detachment) Selections:
+ HQ +
* Archon (Fleet, Independent Character, Night Vision, Power from Pain) Blaster, Combat Drugs, Djinn Blade, Kabalite Armor, Plasma Grenades, Shadow field, Splinter Pistol
+ Troops +
* Kabalite Warriors (Fleet, Night Vision, Power from Pain) * 8x Kabalite Warrior 8x Splinter Rifle * Kabalite Warrior with assault weapon Blaster * Kabalite Warrior with heavy weapon Splinter Cannon * Raider Dark Lance, Splinter Racks
* Wyches (Dodge, Fleet, Night Vision, Power from Pain) * Raider Dark Lance, Flickerfield * 9x Wyches 9x Haywire grenades, 9x Plasma Grenades, 9x Splinter Pistol and Close Combat Weapon

| The archon seems a bit point heavy for 500pts, and the wyches raider doesn't need a flicker field, as it has jink (5+ cover save for moving) and in such a small point game you should easily be able to grant it cover from some terrain on the first turn. I would also recommend dropping one or two wyches from the wych squad and using the points to get a hekatrix with a venom blade and Phantasm Grenade Launcher (As it grants them stealth against units shooting them from within 8", this really helps with overwatch). Hope that helps.

I'd suggest dropping the drugs and the Djinn blade for either an agonizer or a venom blade.
+ Troops +
* Kabalite Warriors * 8x Kabalite Warrior 8x Splinter Rifle * Kabalite Warrior with assault weapon Blaster * Kabalite Warrior with heavy weapon Splinter Cannon * Raider Dark Lance, Splinter Racks
These need to be bumped up to 10 guys to have a splinter cannon. I'd also suggest either dropping the racks or switching to NS (because i love them).
* Wyches * Raider Dark Lance, Flickerfield * 9x Wyches 9x Haywire grenades, 9x Plasma Grenades, 9x Splinter Pistol and Close Combat Weapon
If you have spare points in there somewhere i'd suggest you get a hekatrix with a PGL and venom blade. i also agree with Mush on the flicker fields.
Welcome Back to 40k and Welcome to TDC! | |

| Thanks its nice to be back so something like this would fair better in the 6th ed world - Code:
-
+++ No Name (483pts) +++ +++ 500pt Dark Eldar 6th Ed (2010) Roster (Primary Detachment)) +++
Selections:
Dark Eldar 6th Ed (2010) (Primary Detachment) Selections:
+ HQ +
* Archon (Fleet, Independent Character, Night Vision, Power from Pain) Kabalite Armor, Plasma Grenades, Shadow field, Splinter Pistol, Venom Blade
+ Troops +
* Kabalite Warriors (10 warriors) (Fleet, Night Vision, Power from Pain) * 8x Kabalite Warrior 8x Splinter Rifle * Kabalite Warrior with assault weapon Blaster * Kabalite Warrior with heavy weapon Splinter Cannon * Raider Dark Lance, Nightshield
* Wyches (8 Wyches + Hekatrix) (Dodge, Fleet, Night Vision, Power from Pain) * Hekatrix Haywire grenades, Phantasm Grenade Launcher, Plasma Grenades, Splinter Pistol, Venom Blade * Raider Dark Lance * Wych with Wych Weapon Haywire grenades, Hydra Gauntlets, Plasma Grenades * 7x Wyches 7x Haywire grenades, 7x Plasma Grenades, 7x Splinter Pistol and Close Combat Weapon
I have 17 points left over and not sure where would be used to use them. Anymore advise is good. I wasn't too sure about the NS since i figured that most weaponry that would shoot the raider would be 36'' or over and splinter racks would give more damage potential. I haven't played DE long enough to know works out in the field as I know that is very different. Cheers | |
