Should come out to 1493. I played something close to this once, the grotesques get shot at a bunch while the transports move down. Seemed to work ok, but Id be curious for any assistance people have.

Thanks!

Welcome to the dark city.

I'd drop one grot to give room for heamy. And then get them a raider. Not so sure how those 10 wyches are going to work but at least some people are using warrior gun boats. Although 5 AV 10 targets are a bit too little to have when you don't get first turn. Razorwings would benefit greatly from flickers so you do not have to ever Jink.

If you want a totally different list try Mushkillas Raever list found on Battle reports section.

I ended up leaving the grots out of transport mostly so the enemy would have something to fire at. I dont really mind them getting shot at and I have them follow behind the wych transports to fend off anyone who gets too close. The venom full of trueborn usually ends up dying though...

One question though, why the flickerfields on razorwings, arent they fliers and will be moving 18 no matter what? Sorry still new to dark eldar (and warhammer) might be a noobish question.

Flyers only get a jink save if they perform evasive manoeuvres, unlike skimmers who get a jink save for moving. By taking the flicker field it means that you never have to perform evasive manoeuvres, meaning you can always fire at full ballistic skill.

Hope that clears it up.

Yes thank you!
