Like I said, lemme know what you think I have plenty of time to make adjustments and I still need to buy stuff to make this list happen so feedback can and will be taken on board.

hey.

You have done everything right with this list. I would probably drop down the trueborns to 3 x 3 with blasters. Then get rid of the wych weapons and try to fit in atleast 3 reavers with a heat lance. This way you get the option to hit a whole other target and also you can speed up and contest objectives late on.

Otherwise this is the cookie cutter build. Fun to play and very good.

If you want to mix it up a bit i can recommend you drop a trueborn unit and add 5 incubis in a venom instead. Then you can change one of the ravagers to a razorwing jetfighter and give him double disintigrators and a splinter cannon cause you really do have enough lances as it is.

My two cents.

I would get rid of the Wych Weapons and add another body, Statiscally, another wych is better and costs the same, Also, you don't want the Haemi's in combat, they should be left behind in the raider, try and switch the V. blades with Liquifiers, they can really help. Other than that, a pretty decent list (Y)

Ding! That's exactly my advice ... and pretty much the list I use.

I am making almost the same list. This is great. the only difference I have is I am using Wraks instead of Witches. Please let me know how this works out for you!

Just to clarify something, the wyches are 8 plus the hekatrix for a total of 9. Adding another one would leave no space on the raider for the Haemonculus.

One thing I looked into was dropping the Razorflails, giving the Haemonculii liquifiers and then putting enhanced aethersails on the 2 raiders. Revised list below



Thanks for the feedback btw guys

I think you forgot to delete razorflails from the second wych squad? Anyway, I think the second list is better. Certainly a good list, even though Dark Eldar (atleast for me) have a steep learning curve.

yeah, I did forget to remove the second one but updated the raider, oops.
