DE has three real options. A kabalite shooting army with lots of warriors in raiders or venoms, ravangers and focuses on drowning you opponent in tones of small shots. A wych cult army that focuses on lightning fast, but fragile unites that can blitz across the board. Or you can build a coven army of close combat monsters that hit like a ton of bricks and are a pain to take down, you will want the coven book to really power them up.

Of the options, the coven is probably the strongest, and possibly the funnest to build if you like converting. But nothing says you can't just build and play with whatever you want.

Here are a few things to consider.

Grotesques are our strongest close combat fighters.
Scourges are our best anti-tank.
Talos are our most defensive unit.
ravangers are our most mobile.
Venoms are the best option for poison shots.
Razorwings are the best at clearing out hoards.

DE are the hardest army to transport. After reading reviews from other dakkaians, it seems like the new GW cases would not be a good choice to transport DE. Since you have the money, it would probably be worth it to get a custom case. I'm sure there are plenty of people on this site who can direct you to specific manufactures and cases.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740124.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740124.page GMT DE help pls!!!! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740244.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740244.page GMT DE help pls!!!! PFP tables, and the 5+ cover save minimum for the real space raiders detachment. With a chronos nearby, they become much harder to put down! ( they'd have a rerollable 5+ against small arms fire and if your opponent is shooting bigger guns than that at them, you're winning!)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740269.page GMT DE help pls!!!! fo the cases.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7740270.page GMT DE help pls!!!!

uggg, I had a KR multicase for my Space marines, and really didn't like it, It was very expensive for the very specific models that I would be transporting, and although I have the money, it is not something I would like investing it in, I have looked into battlefoam, but it seems like the problem remains.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say you had long metal-style hair before you shaved it

To answer the question, Scourges and Grotesques are a good place to start]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7742515.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7742515.page GMT DE help pls!!!!
The wyches disembark and eat overwatch for the incubi or court of the archon I have hanging out with them. The hekatrix generally challenges any character in the enemy squad to keep nasty power weapons away from my incubi, and the incubi do all the real work.

If wyches could apply their 4+ against shooting or if they had a way to get furious charge sooner, they'd be fine. As is, they just lack the necessary punch until turn 4. That said, a cheap hekatrix with haywire grenades is actually a pretty solid answer to walkers. Her friends tank the return attacks, and she whittles down the walker's hull points.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7742596.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/643822/7742596.page GMT
