so i was wanting to start a Dark Eldar army, I was wondering where to start after the battle force. You know what build really works for them not just competitively but for fun as well. also HQ recommendations visually i like Dark Eldar Archon, Urien Rakarth and Dark Eldar Haemonculus but basing a decision off a visual probably is not the best idea.

So any and all ideas and suggestions are great and appreciated. Thank you all so much and have a glorious day.

Haemonculi are nice and cheap and have liquifier guns.
Urien is less-worth it cos he's pricey but cool.
Archon - I'd go with Duke Sliscus over a standard Archon personally but that's ultimately personal taste.

But in the end it depends on what sort of force you're after - Dark Eldar is all about specialization.

For a 'standard' speed force you'd be looking at venoms and trueborn, with warriors in raiders aswell as ravagers and razorwings etc.
