The
FAQ killed any thought of using another races transport. So no dark eldar in eldar vehicles or vice Versa. Which means you have to rely on each sub races transports. That said:
1: the 3 named characters in the triumvirate are all pretty badass. The visarch makes mincemeat of just about anything he charges, and yrvaine does pretty good as well, but shines in the psychic phase. The avatar is also a powerful psyker - but be careful of over extending with his teleport. He can be gunned down. The best use for him is to deploy him after you kill a unit from soulburst on the other guy's turn, or he wipes one of yours. Drop in the avatar and then on your turn you can charge and smash things up. The other 2 characters need support though. You can go 2 ways. Either a bug blob of low pts models to eat wounds, or something tougher. I like the latter. Wraith blades are a nice choice. With soulburst (either from nearby deaths, or psychic support) they can close gap fast on foot. And with t6 and 3+/4++ they can tank very well.
I've been considering running Yrvaine and the Visarch in a Warlock Conclave. Not only is it a good
CC unit, but as you loose squad members Yrvaine get's her psychic boost.
