Rune Priest Jbickb Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Greetings my tricky friends, A friend recently left the game and he gave me his collection. Among that collection was a start of a dark eldar force, and I'm not sure what to do with it. So I crafted this list using the models he had collected and after reading some tacticas and I was wondering if it would be playable. Not looking to crush a major tournament, but give my opponent a hard fun game and win some would be nice. ++ Battalion Detachment +5CP (Aeldari - Drukhari) [56 PL, 1075pts] ++ + No Force Org Slot + Detachment Attribute: Kabal of the Flayed Skull + HQ + Archon [4 PL, 86pts]: Blast Pistol, Famed Savagery, Huskblade, The Djin Blade, Warlord (Archon) Drazhar [6 PL, 120pts] + Troops + Kabalite Warriors [2 PL, 47pts] . 3x Kabalite Warrior .

WarriorFish Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Always good to see an army given a loving home, I'm afraid I'm not an expert but I think you've got a solid start here with a MSU army. Plenty of mobility that will be winning games and some durability with the Coven. Are the models painted at all, or will you get to apply your own colour scheme?

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 The coven is all painted (except the grotesques to be) with a pretty classic black and purple theme, and the raider on the kabal is painted metal and orange which I love so I was gunna try to duplicate that for the rest of the units. Will post pics once I get it out of storage. The two are different which works well with the fluff and I think they look cool together.

Closet Skeleton Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 GSC aberrants are a bit small, monopose and hard to get hold of. Age of Sigmar vargheists mixed with talos bits are the best method.

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 Ah I didn't realize the grotesques were as big as the evidently are. I thought they were roughly terminator size. Vargheists ut is thanks for the tip.
