I have a good 50 points to play with, but I really don't have to big of a clue on how to run DE, I'm deciding between them and a few other armies. However they are currently at the top, so please provide feed back.

First, the dark gate is good, but its only 1 shot. I would suggest using weapons that are better at boosting your trueborn. Take a 4 man trueborn unit with 4 blasters, and then put a minor haemy into the unit. Give this Haemonculi a scissorhand and a liquifier gun into the venom with them automatically giving the unit a pain token. Also, you should upgrade the venoms to have a second splinter cannon.

Heres what I would do to your list.

HQ:
Heamonculi, scissorhand, liquifier gun = 75
Haemonculi, scissorhand, liquifier gun = 75

ELITE:
Trueborn (4), blasters (4), venom, splinter cannons (2) = 173
Trueborn (4), blasters (4), venom, splinter cannons (2) = 173

TROOP:
wracks (5), liquifier gun, venom, splinter cannons (2) = 125
wracks (5), liquifier gun, venom, splinter cannons (2) = 125

HEAVY SUPPORT:
Ravager, flickerfiled, night shields = 125
Ravager, flickerfield, night shields = 125

Total = 996

Tons of anti-tank, and tons of anti-troop....VENOMS are the new gunboat, get on board.

I really hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply, would thinning down my main assault force be a good decision? That would be giving up about 15 attacks right?
