Hello, my friend just gave me his Dark Eldar stuff ,but there wasn't much he gave me (just a few kabalite warriors and a venom). I was just curious if anyone can help me in putting together a good Dark Eldar list that has the capability of taking down vehicles too (a hard task for Dark Eldar). I also ask that the list remain pure Dark Eldar ,but if I do really need to ally then please tell me because I am new to Dark Eldar.

blasters or heat lances take down vehicles very well. vehicles are not too hard a task for Deldarl, as there are a few different mobile platforms that can take these weapons.

First bet is to grab the codex and have a good read through mate, that will also give you a good idea of the basic army.

Your best ranged anti tank are scourges with haywire blasters/heat lances, trueborn with 4 blasters, ravagers with 3 dark lances.

In close combat reavers with cluster caltrops and talos.

Yeah, haywire scourges and blasters are effective for taking down tanks, and so are reavers with caltrops. Those S d6 rending HoW attacks have made a surprising amount of tanks pop.

Thank you to those that responded ,for future responses does anyone know what is best for taking out planes and other flying vehicles?

Unfortunately Dark Eldar don't have a strong anti air, your only choice available is the razorwing jetfighter upgraded with dark lances but the most common and effective way to deal with flyers is typically to ignore them. I wouldn't bother to take a specific anti air unit in a Dark Eldar TAC list, only if you're 100% sure that you're going to face an opponent that fields some nasty flyers that must be gunned down you can think of taking one or two jetfighters. But those fast attacks slots are extremely precious and bikes are never enough
