I didn't think of this list sooner, because I wanted both the Grotesques and Wracks in my army since they look so damn cool. But in the end, the lack of AV poses a real problem and while the Grotesques are relatively sturdy, especially with a nearby Cronos, the Wracks are not and both in comparison to the Talos don't offer the same beefy survive ability and firepower, so I decided to make the following list. I think, this as a tournament Haemonculus Coven only list, is the best you can do in terms of competitiveness, but please correct me if I'm wrong.



++ Dark Eldar: Supplement - Haemonculus Covens (Formation Detachment) (1850pts) ++

Formation: Corpsethief Claw (700pts)
5x Talos [Ichor Injector, Twin-Linked Haywire Blaster]

Formation: Corpsethief Claw (700pts)
5x Talos [Ichor Injector, Twin-Linked Haywire Blaster]

Formation: Dark Artisan (450pts)
Cronos [Spirit Probe]
Haemonculus [Liquifier Gun, Scissorhand, The Nightmare Doll, The Panacea Perverted, Webway portal]
Talos [Ichor Injector, Twin-Linked Haywire Blaster]

If your going pure coven, this is the best you could do. You'll overwhelm many opponents and die horribly to others. You'll have trouble with Maelstrom games but you already know that.

But honestly i would swap the 2nd CTC for something a little more reliable with boots on the ground. My best suggestion would be a Jetbike Farseer with Scatbikers and D-Cannon's, that would fill your Objective grabbing role and would also aid you in handling those few things that murder Talosi such as Balesword Daemon Prince of a Wraithknight.
