Other than that there's not much to say. Let me know what you think.

This is what I use and it's Kung Fu has proven to be strong:

Duke Sliscus = 150

Haemonculus = 65
Liquifier Gun, Venom Blade.

8 Trueborn = 206
6 Shard Carbine, 2 Splinter Cannon.
Raider.

10 Wracks = 200
2 Liquifier Guns, Acothyst - Agoniser.
Raider.

10 Wracks = 200
2 Liquifier Guns, Acothyst - Agoniser.
Raider.

10 Wyches = 200
2 Shardnet and Impaler, Hekatrix - Power Weapon.
Raider.

10 Warriors = 160
Splinter Cannon.
Raider.

Ravager = 105
Ravager = 105
Ravager = 105

I tried it with two Darklight Ravagers and a one Disintegrator Ravager and it worked really well against Imperial Guard and held it's own against a BA Mech Army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2162570.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2162570.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2166659.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2166659.page GMT Re:1500/Dark Eldar/Comp
On the other hand I also like flickerfields on ravagers anyways.

If you drop nightshields on your ravagers, flickers on your wych's raiders, you can get nightshields on your warriors raider (since its the only raider you want to keep going close) and give the wychs haywire grenades. I think that would help a bunch. Then again your warriors raider will be a 90 point paper plane, which is likely a weakness. Overall I'm not sold on the strategy, but that's probably a better way to do it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2166718.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2166718.page GMT Re:1500/Dark Eldar/Comp http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2166835.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2166835.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp Ah, yeah.

I second that...

A 2/6 chance of saving isn't worth the points. Not in 40k, not in any game.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2169253.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2169253.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp

If it was 30pts I would agree with you, but they cost 10pts. Ten points for your ravagers to die 1/3rd of the time less is quite good. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2169580.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2169580.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp DE list yesterday with BA and he saved his Ravagers 3 times in two rounds with flickers. It kept his machine moving. I'd say it's hit or miss. I like em so far. They haven't done me any wrong For ten points its not a bad trade off imo. "hardly believable" You guys have seen my bat reps. They work, some of the time ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2170539.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2170539.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp

Flickerfields are the best 10 points spent on any unit in DE. The sheer amount of times it has made my friend roll his eyes after auto-penning with a broadside is ridiculous.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2170567.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2170567.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp *Note odds based of personal judgment of how often I can make people shoot at my stuff for another turn)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2170569.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2170569.page GMT 1500/Dark Eldar/Comp KP.

I suppose that massed target saturation can work just as well as Flickers. . .maybe.

If you're willing to risk hopping out, they've got a very serious threat range of 32", though the 24" scoot n' shoot is often plenty.

I think that is wrong, the FAQ says "turn" and according to the brb a "turn" is a player turn and game turns are explicitly called "game turn", so, that ruling only really matters if you somehow get shot or wrecked in some other way on YOUR turn, not the subsequent player turn.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2178021.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/330307/2178021.page GMT
