So it's time to start gearing up my WarGamesCon army and getting it ready for June. Traditionally I take what the internet considers a "weaker" army. Last year it was tyranids and I ended up doing fairly well. So please place your votes, write ins welcome.

You should design your list using your own comp rules. Go pure dark eldar.

Why would I apply rules for one tournament to another?

@jy2: Nids are looking tempting. I'm still trying to find a good way to balance them though. I think I need more synapse than the old book.

I would go for the most expensive so you can prove your 2" manliness.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
2" is the roughly the size of the average trooper.

Hah. I don't know if its worth the dollar investment for me because I don't really like the DE look/fluff, but it'd be something like:

Archon, Shadowfield, Huskblade, Combat Drugs
6x Incubi, Raider, Night Shield, Flicker Field
5x Warriors, Blaster, Venom w/dual splinter cannons
5x Warriors, Blaster, Venom w/dual splinter cannons
5x Warriors, Blaster, Venom w/dual splinter cannons
5x Warriors, Blaster, Venom w/dual splinter cannons
20x Warriors, 2x Dark Lance, Raider
20x Warriors, 2x Dark Lance, Raider
Ravager, Night Shield, Flicker Field
Ravager, Night Shield, Flicker Field
Beast Pack, 4x Beastmaster, 18x Khymerae

Thats 1851 right now so I'd have to play with the stats a little but should be easy to tweak. And no allies, per your request. Doesn't really seem weak to me though. 16 Dark Lance shots that can split at 7 targets, ridicilous amounts of poison 4+ weapons, a decent counter assault unit in the Archon/Incubi, and a major disruption unit in the 4++ beast pack. Should also still be a 20 in comp. No triplicates in heavy/fast/elite, all below the points treshhold. And the troops are well above the minimum.
