Im sorry If this is in the wrong thread i was just unsure where to put it.

Im thinking about buying some more stuff for my dark eldar. I have 30 warriors, 20 truueborn, 30 wyches, 9 reavers, 15 incubi, 2 archons, and lilith. Other then more transports and ravegers (im getting this over the next few holidays from my bro and mom.), what should i add to the force. If you guys don't mind can you post if you can how it can help my already army.

Well you say you've got the transport on the way so thats good.

The only other viable unit from what I can see is the Razorwing but thats a bit flakey, it can only spunk out four rockets on one enemy so unless you facing a green/chitin tide than it goes from awesome to above par.

Although can always trade the two dark-lances for two disintegrators (This rips hive-tyrants hard).

I dont run a haemonculi covern so cannot comment on wracks and the sort but I proxied the pain/parasite engines and to be frank they were a bit crud. Although I guess if you are good at utilising the webway than you can prob do better as I found them too slow.

A lhamean is also a good buy, but only to paint or to proxy as a female Sliscus.

I might get a razorwing and proxy it sometimes for a voidraven. The razorwing is cool but doesn't help my against my local meta since almost all the armies are meqs ie necrons, grey knights,blodd angels,wraith based eldar. So im looking for a addition to counter that.

The razorwing is LETHAL to MEQ infantry - its even nastier if your an ork or GEQ.

With 4 S6 shots with large blast you will inflict 20 odd wounds easy. - you overload the unit and force masses of saves.

You aim it at the static infantry shooty unit (long fangs or lootas spring to mind) and let rip. I keep the dark lances on it so it can then go tank hunting.

I figured about the ork thing with the razorwing and the meq im suprised so i might try it with my friends razorwing. Soon I might be playing a match against a mainly infranty necron with a command barge or annihilation barge and a monolith. So anything that would help against it. If you need me to put up what his usual list is i can.

The razorwing is a cool looking model and effective on the table.

I would say that as well.

Other than that the only thing you are missing are talos/chronos and scourge? What about the baron and his hellions or some beastpacks.

If your trying for Venom/Raider spam, or a Wych cult, just go the route your going now. If you want to do a Webway based list, then Talos/Chronos, some wracks, and beast packs.

Im going for a kabal mixed with a wych cult. I kinda like the killing potentail the wych cult has but i don't like dedicating to all assualt. Its kinda a habit i got from my DA.

Talos would be cool but its so slow. I want to try the hellions and beast amsters out a bit before i buy some.

somewhere in the webway

beast masters are pretty awsome. some tips on saving some cash though. - vampire counts dire hounds or whatever they are called sub pretty close for chimerae. put em on termie bases and your golden. plus you get 10 in a box for less then or close to 30$ . hellions provide beastmaster supplies (use skulls and other bits to custom them up). this saves you having to buy the actual finecost models at nearly 20$ EACH... and since beast units work best in large numbers, saving moneys is nice. no idea on how to do the birds though.

Haemonculi for the wyches. FNP for them is really nice. You can also get them a liquifier, which is one of the best flamers in the game.
After that some scourges and then some beasts.
