HQ:
Haemonculus w/Liquifier Gun -60

So one Haemonculus will go with each of the Grotesque units to keep them under control. I think everything else is pretty self-explanatory.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5907596.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5907596.page GMT New to Dark Eldar 1500 Haemonculus list
The cronos have very little to offer your list as you are already knee deep in pain tokens out of the gate. Also, your squads are meched up meaning that the cronos can't really offer any tokens to anything but itself. With only a short ranged template, it probably wont contribute anything except drawing fire. To stick with the theme, turn em into talos pain engines. Keep the splinter cannon stock on the tail, and TL liquifier on the arm. Makes a nice troop killing unit, and remember it can get power from pain to get a token by finishing a squad, so save the tail splinters till the end of the shooting phase and pick off the last 1-2 models in a squad. The talos draws fire, but can shoot back and is dead lethal at close range. If still, you are dead set on the chronos at least get the large blast upgrade so it can shoot more if it ever makes it close enough to matter

Flickerfields may be overkill, as jink does the same thing. Unless your just dead worried about tau or helldrakes. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5907720.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5907720.page GMT New to Dark Eldar 1500 Haemonculus list Str melee attacks. Would your recommend Night Shields instead of the Flicker Fields?

The only place you NEED a flickerfield is your razorwing. Razorwing is a good addition cause it will blast through hordes and offers more AT. However, make sure to silence the quad gun or any other AA your opponent has before it comes on and gets shot down.

I think the best part of this list is just how many liquifiers you have. Every unit except your trueborn has one, and that is certainly nothing to sneeze at. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5908719.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5908719.page GMT New to Dark Eldar 1500 Haemonculus list

New list is looking good. I always take night shields over flicker fields. On raiders with grots, they are meh as you are getting in close. Good on the venoms with the wracks as they will stay back and dakka poison, only going in for the liquifier kill when needed.

All good points. Don't be afraid to run your transports and pop all those liquifiers at one unit. then move on the next one. then the next one.....seen this done many time (good friend plays DE) and it can absolutely wreck anything that relies on cover. Also (and someone already mentioned this) if you see a lot of Heldrakes take flickerfields]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5909083.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/543729/5909083.page GMT New to Dark Eldar 1500 Haemonculus list CSM player that has one in my local meta.
