Hi, I am currently a marine player looking for a change due to the abudance of MEQ armies in my local area, which leads me to dark eldar. I've been a fan since I first borrowed a friends army of them about 6 years ago for a small game, unfortuanately, his list got torn to pieces but I enjoyed playing and always wanted to try my own DE army at one point!

You'll have to forgive any mistakes before hand as im doing this quite early in the morning, and by scribbling onto some scrap paper - the copy of the codex im using is also barely staying together so I have plenty of excuses if any math errors pop up =]

Archon;
w/ Combat drugs, Trophy rack, Tormentor Helm and Shadowfield
- Also with either a Punisher or Agoniser (really not sure which route to go down here, some advice on this choice would be appreciated!)

[140]

9 Wyches;
w/ Plasma Gs, WWs, Succubus with Agoniser and Torment Helm, in a Raider
[205]

Raider Squad;
10 Warriors w/ Blaster, Splinter Cannon, Syb with Agoniser or a Punisher and Tormentor Helm(also not sure about this, perhaps a different setup for him altogether?) in a Raider
[181]

Raider Squad;
5 Warriors w/ 1 DL in a Raider
[105]

Raider Squad;
5 Warriors w/ 1 DL in a Raider
[105]

Warrior Squad;
11 Warriors w/ 2 DL
[108]

Ravager;
w/ 3 Dis.
[120]


= [964]

Now im not sure what to do with the existing points, kit up my vehicles or sybarites or start cutting things out of the list to try and fit something else in?

Another variant of this list that I have come up with is as follows:

Dracon;
w/ Combat Drugs, Tormentor Helm, Shadowfield, Punisher
[110]

6 Wyches;
w/ WWs and Plasma Gs, Succubus with Agoniser - In a Raider
[161]

7 Wyches;
w/ WWs and Plasma Gs, Succubus with Agoniser - In a Raider
[174]

Raider Squad;
5 Warriors with a DL - In a Raider
[105]

Raider Squad;
5 Warriors with a DL - In a Raider
[105]

Raider Squad;
5 Warriors with a DL - In a Raider
[105]

Ravager;
w/ 3 Dis.
[120]

Ravager;
w/ 3 Dis
[120]

= [1000]

Now this list has more firepower but seems alot more 'thinned' out, let me know what you think of both the lists anyway!

Any C&C and feedback on the exisiting list and what to possibly do with the leftover points would be appreciated!

Shamless self bump - Looking for Dark Eldar players to come out of hiding and lavish some much needed feedback!

Second list is by and far the better one. No suggestions really, great job!

Definently go with the 2nd list. The 1st lists major flaw is that you have that one squad footen it that is going to get wasted becouse its on its own. As for the 2nd list its very effective, not many 1000 pt armies can deal with that many fast moving vehicles. And your sheer volume of DLance fire should handle vechiles.

Glad that there are still DE players. GW defintly needs to revive them.
