I am going to be running an Iyanden / Dark Eldar list in a tournament later this year and I have a couple of ideas for lists, just wondering what people think of them.

List 1 - Flyer Heavy

Farseer - Shard, Stones
5x Spiritseer
Baron Sathonix
3x Guardian Jetbikes
3x Guardian Jetbikes
5x Kabalite Warriors
3x Crimson Hunter
1x Razorwing Jetfighter
Full Khymerae Beastpack


List 2 - More Balanced

Jetseer - Shard, Stones
5x Spiritseer
Baron Sathonix
3x Guardian Jetbikes
3x Guardian Jetbikes
3x Guardian Jetbikes
3x Guardian Jetbikes
5x Wyches (Haywire) - Venom (Dual Cannons)
5x Wyches (Haywire) - Venom (Dual Cannons)
Full Khymerae Beastpack
5x Warp Spiders
5x Warp Spiders
1x Ravager (Lances, FF, Jets)


List 3 - Not written it yet!

Will likely involve Wave Serpent and Venom Spam...!


Suggestions and C&C appreciated.

Spiritseers FYI are rolling on 2x Telepathy, 2x Sanctic and 1x RoB.

Farseer will be going for fortune or misfortune from respective tables based on enemy type.

I like the second list, the first has to many flyers and not enough troops/

I also like the second list more than the first. However, while I'm not a big advocate of serpent spam, you're probably shooting yourself in the foot by not at least including 1-2. I don't think any opponent would call cheese on that.

Also: "5x Spiritseer"... am I missing something? Is this a type-O?

No it's not a typo. Iyanden primary so 5 Spiritseers is perfectly legal.

Played a game with the flyer list tonight to try it out, they whiffed magnificently. Didn't kill a single thing. Was playing a Tau and Necron list. Game ended on turn 5 with me locked in combat with 2 units of necron warriors.

The blob did its job though killing a riptide and his drones, longstrike, an ethereal and his fire warriors, 2 units of wraiths and whatever that necron long skimmer thing is called.

Rest of the list did nothing, may as well of not been there

Might need to rethink the rest of it.

Serpents are an option, I'm trying to avoid taking them though as I don't like them.

Will try list #2 at the club next week. Was thinking of shoving some outflanking war walkers in the list but will have to play around with the list.
