Competitive tournament next year and I am trying to work out an alpha strike list of sorts that can take on anything.

The list is designed for a turn 2 alphastrike in the rear. I have had great success with striking from reserve with Dark Eldar so thought I would try in a competitive environment.

Dataslate
Culexis Assassin


Essentially deploy only the wracks turn 1 hidden and everything else deep strikes either into rear armor or in the case of a psychic deathstar near to it with the culexis removing buffs to take them out easier.

Will model the assassin from a mandrake so it fits with everything else.

Question is, drop the Corsairs and just take ravagers or keep the corsairs. The blade sworn and Prince make a decent combat unit but is it worth dropping ravagers for...

Why put the blasterborn in raiders instead of venoms? I'm not really an expert or anything, but it seems like a lot of extra points to pay for what is essentially another dark lance. Not to mention that venoms would be easier to deep strike.

Not got anymore Venoms
