The razorwing is custom built from a raider chasis. I have to say I am happy with the model
GW will be releasing for the Razorwing soon, I will purchase a few.

Being the Dark Eldar player in the video, I think the
SW player made many mistakes.
Firstly one squad of Long fangs was deployed, the whole squad, on the 2nd floor of small buidling in center of deploy. Razorwing and Venom death. At least deploy them on seperate levels, and put them somewhere that getting a shot will expose the
DE vehicles to concentrated counter-fire. Put the long fangs on the ground in the back screened on both sides by vehicles and terrain. Thats also my Space Wolve army. I probably would have kept both sets of long fangs in thier razorbacks for the first part of the fight.
The razorbacks and rhinos were deployed pretty badly. One or the other needs to provide cover. Three of the four objectives were grouped together near the middle of the right side of the board. There was no need to spead out, at all. With the additional victory condition being an extra objective for killing the wolf priest, that guy should have been in his rhino behind the two
GH razorbacks in a counter attack position. ALL of the Razorbacks could have been deployed in his cornerin great shooty positions probably with cover from most attack angles.
he spread out during turn 1 with no
DE on the table, and got the 2nd set of long fangs out. opponents do this often, and form a line down the center of the table. people think this is a supported force but its not, my dark eldar are so mobile that this arrangement is the easiest for me to eat one unit at a time or at the Least, dictate all combats everywhere.
once the
DE force started to get on the board he attacked the trueborn raider with thunderwolves and jumped his two big rhino melta squads out of thier vehicles to kill heavies. the wolf priest was literally out in the open when the incubi/archon ate him and his squad. the other grey hunters that got out died also to shooting. the thunderwolf charge finally split his army in half and completly unable to support or attack the other half. watch the video battle report and the space wolf forces move away from each other the whole game.
he should have concentrated his army right in the middle of the three objective cluster and made the dark eldar demech him before any fighting. that would have been an entirely different match, and around turn 3/4 he should have had quite a plasma barrage that should have done some real damage somewhere it counted to the
DE.
anyways, thanks all!
