I actually own every model for this except the Court, the Razorwing, a Venom, and a gaint spider for my drider conversion.

But your court is illegal...

You must have at least the following:
1 (up to 2) Lhamaens
1 (up to 2) Medusae
1 (up to 3) Sslyth
1 (up to 5) Ur-Ghuls]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3297117.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3297117.page GMT 2500 point Dark Eldar/Drow list
List is fixed.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3297196.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3297196.page GMT 2500 point Dark Eldar/Drow list
You only need 4 Trueborn because that's how many special weapons you get. No point taking splinter cannons when you've got 4 anti tank weapons and no need for Dracon, Trueborn are shooting not close combat - Incubi do close combat.

No point in the shredder and power weapon on the Warriors, they will be sitting back sniping vehicles so the shredder won't be in range and in combat they are only s3. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3298398.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3298398.page GMT 2500 point Dark Eldar/Drow list
As far as the Trueborn go if I actually had a venom then making the squad smaller is possible.(getting one might be hard enough, two is...eh I dunno.) But why waste the space in the raider which I do own? Plus while busting vechiles is part of the reason for them, the blaster looks like just the tool for Terminators, Tau suits, and other tough nuts to crack. The cannons and shard carbines just give me a whole lot of fire to hopefully finish off elite infantry and like. It's also helpful if my opponent is a horde player, as I DO NOT tailor my lists, I build a list to be a jack of all trades against all comers. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3301455.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3301455.page GMT 2500 point Dark Eldar/Drow list
Keep the Raider my point is you've got 4 blasters for blowing up tanks and 2 splinter cannons, no point having the splinter cannons because you will be more focusing on blasters. Then you only need 4 Trueborn to get those blasters anyway. Keep the Raider, but just because it can fit 10 dudes in doesn't mean you have to take 10 dudes just to fill it

I'm not a fan of talioring lists either, though if you have the right weaponry then you have good unit synergy. If you find yourself against a mech list then you're just using blasters to nail tanks and the splinter cannons end up been a waste of points. Jack of all trade lists can deal with everything and have great synergy to make the most out of everything, not mixed wargear ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3302423.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3302423.page GMT 2500 point Dark Eldar/Drow list

I disagree. The OP said that he intents to use the Blasters as Elite-Infantry hunters, so the Splinter Cannons will usually put extra wounds on that Elite Squad. It all depends, however, on the amount of shots fired - sometimes you're better off just firing the blasters so that the enemy cannot do any type of wound allocation magic. At other times, when the enemy squad has got Invul or Cover saves, you want to hit them with all you got.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3304598.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395703/3304598.page GMT 2500 point Dark Eldar/Drow list
