This is my first battle report/ this was a 800 point game between dark eldar and guard I was playing dark eldar and my brother was play guard. I just started play dark eldar so we did a game and I wondered what things I could have done different that would have help the dark eldar or the guard.
Just to tell you the pics are done on my phone so some will be good and others will be bad.

this is the board we played on

So thats the game hope you liked it I do not mind making more battle reports and if you have any advise for making the battle report better that would be cool.

I love small guard match ups!

Good stuff. I am confused as to when it was night fight and when it wasn't. Seems like it happened two turns in a row? Also it would be great to have the pictures correspond with the turns.

That cover looks pretty sparse. Did you make that board?
