My IG are nearly completed, and even though I have tried to resist the temptation to begin a DE army, I just gave in instead (which is what DE actually do Smile ) because I love the range of models.

My plan is to create a playable 1750 list so I can start playing, and will collect more models when it's done.

Anyways, on to the list. Pick it apart as you wish Razz

HQ

Archon
agonizer
combat drugs
phantasm grenade launcher
shadow field


ELITE

4 incubi (joined by archon)
venom w/ 2 SCs

3 trueborn w/ blasters
venom w/ 2 SCs

3 trueborn w/ blasters
venom w/ 2 SCs

TROOPS

10 warriors w/ blaster, SC
raider w/ shock-prow (for last turn tank-shocking), FF

10 warriors w/ blaster, SC
raider w/ FF

7 wyches w/ haywires
of which 1 is a hekatrix w/ agonizer
raider w/ torment GL, FF

7 wyches w/ haywires
of which 1 is a hekatrix w/ agonizer
raider w/ torment GL, FF

HEAVY SUPPORT

ravager w/ FF

ravager w/ FF

razorwing w/ DCs, SC, FF, NS
(what can I say? I love the model, but should I keep the DL?)

total= 1748 pts

Not much I can say otehr than go out, run it, and get a feel for it. Its a solid list. You just need to learn how to play it.

As you said your exchanging a sledgehammer for a scalpel and everything you know as an IG player is wrong for DE. Once you figure out our glass jaw, you'll be fine.

it seems solid, My only grudge is that 10 warriors is alot. If they pop ur Raider you will lose 2-3 on average & their ld8 will have them pinned or running (or both). I say do 3 units of 5 in venoms & add 2 haemoncs to the wyches to give then fnp (but remember not to disembark together as Haemoncs have no Fleet) also a 4th Blasterborn in each would be a plus. Also, dont rely on shock prow (for last turn shocks) as that will most likely be the enemies 1-2nd choice target & our transports are already expensive enough so im not a beck fan of additional trinkets other than Flicker Fields.

Good Luck, Enjoy & welcome to the Dark Side!

thanks for the advice Smile

I'd love to add a 4th blasterborn to each unit, and haemys to each wych squad, but I just don't have the points. I know substituting the razorwing for a ravager would free up enough points for 2 blasterborn, but as I said, I love the model too much Razz .

If I trade the 2x10 warriors for 3x5 it's an even trade in points (they're 375 as they are now), but I lose out on 2 lances, which I'm not sure about - well, technically only one since one gets switched for a blaster because of a third warrior squad.
Ofcourse, if competitiveness becomes an issue, a third ravager, and 2 blasterborn will be added, the razorwing dropped and the 2x10 warriors exchanged for 3x5 since then I've got some extra lances from the ravager and extra blasterborn.

And adding the extra blasterborn and haemys to the existing list is the first thing I'll do once the points value goes up Wink
