Here is my 500 pt Dark Eldar list that I'm planning to bring to Gamesday, it's limited to 500 pts and the allied detachment force org.

I haven't ever run my Dark Eldar with this small of a list so I'm at a bit of a loss as to how effective it can be. I unfortunately don't have any wyches painted to bring so they are out of the picture.

HQ- Duke Sliscus - 150 pts

Troop - 7x Kabalite Warriors in Raider w/Dark Lance & Nightshield - 133 pts

Troop - 5x Kabalite Warriors in Venom - 100 pts

Heavy - Ravager 3x Dark Lance & Night Shield - 115 pts

Total - 498 pts

Sliscus is going to ride in the raider with the Kabalites.

C&C is greatly appreciated!

I have revised my original list, I dunno how I possibly forgot splinter racks.

REVISION 1

HQ - Archon - Blaster, Clone Field - 95 pts

Troop - 5x Kabalite Warriors w/Blaster - Venom 2x Splinter Cannon - 125 pts

Troop - 9x Kabalite Warriors - Raider w/ Dark Lance, Nightshield & Splinter Racks - 161 pts

Heavy - Ravager 3x Dark Lance w/ Nightshield - 115 pts

Total - 496 pts

500 points is rough for this kind of army, but I'd say that your list is just about what you need. I would recommend staying mobile in your vehicles as long as possible, blasting whatever you can before they get to you. Also, taking a splinter rack (if you can find the points) would be really awesome. Even ditching the NS would be worth twin linking your shots. Does your Venom have the extra cannon? If not, you MUST take it. Those little things are so annoying, lurking in cover and firing 12 shots down range every round. Protect your ravager well as it's really your only anti-vehicle. Deep strick is available to you with the Duke, so use that to your advantage as well.

Since this is such a low point game, it may be worthwhile to ditch the Duke for a Hamunculous, which would let you pay for some more upgrades and take more guns- and a Liquifier!

Definitely agree on Splinter Racks for the Raider, more twin linked shots the better. Also grab a Blaster for the Warrior Squad. Can always come in handy.

I would also consider sticking a squad of 5 Wytches with Haywire Grenades in the Venom instead of the min warrior squad. Gives you another anti tank unit if something gets close to you. Also you definitely want that second splinter cannon on the venom- Nothing quite like doubling its fire power!

Imo avoid taking expensive named models with these small point values. Other than that I think youre gold
