I'm planning on running a Dark Eldar + Chaos Daemons alliance 2 weeks from now. I want Dark Eldar as my primary force with Daemons as allies, I built 3 lists and i'm having a bit of difficulty deciding if thats how i want them, and how viable they are in terms of winning power vs army balance. I think the force is mobile enough to stay out of OEO rule.

So take a look and let me know which list you think would do better against the following opponents: Astra Militarum, Tau and/or Space Marines (Iron Hands).
And if you have improvements/suggestions feel free to provide them, I work with what I got but i have plenty to be able to make certain changes. I do want to run mono chaos gods builds, no nurgle no slaaneesh either.
