I noticed I had some 3rd Ed. Dark Eldar models lying around and I thought it wouldn't take that much more to create a small army (possibly for Allying purposes).

HQ (95)
1) Archon
- Venom Blade, Shadowfield
Total: 95

ELITE (155)
1) 3x Kabalite Trueborn
- 3x Blasters, 3x Plasma Grenades, 3x Haywire Grenades
- Venom: 2x Splinter Cannons
Total: 155

TROOPS (250)
1) 5x Kabalite Warriors
- 1x Blaster
- Venom: 2x Splinter Cannons
Total: 125

2) 5x Kabalite Warriors
- 1x Blaster
- Venom: 2x Splinter Cannons
Total: 125


I realize the Archon isn't exactly operating at peak efficiency (he's a leftover Incubi model I converted from before). Should I even bother including him or should I just grab, say, a Haemonculus for cheap HQ and fill out the points elsewhere? Thanks!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6580958.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6580958.page GMT HQ choices is the statline and shadowfield. A power spear is meh, and you probably don't need the Ap3 all that badly. A venom blade is cheap as chips, and solid enough where your archon can hold their own. Ghostplate is a fine backup to a shadowfield if you have spare points, but the shadowfield comes first. Same with drugs, good to have but take a field.

Another option is to run a succbus. At low point levels, they are quite effective. WIth a hamey, venom blade(or scissorhand) plus liquefier is the go to build. All depends on what you want: considering your list is shooty, the CC role is mostly a backup.

I take it you decked out on grenades for the trueborn to round out spare points? Plasma are great for the cost, but never required. Haywire are a bit iffy, probably better to get an upgrade elsewhere, and be 1-2 points short. The rest of your list is fine. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6581001.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6581001.page GMT
Grenades were there to round out points as well as a Plan B option, Plasma gives me a small blast for anti-infantry if need be and the haywires can help me finish off a vehicle if my Blasters whiff. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6581165.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6581165.page GMT

Drop the grenades and use the points to boost your archon. Or take a cheep Haem with a liquifier and venom blade and use the points to get another small squad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6582247.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582076/6582247.page GMT
