Another Day, Another Tournament!


Well it's that time again!  Gearing up for another 1,850 RTT over at The Realm.  I'm going to be bringing a slightly altered Dark Eldar list that I've tested a few times.  It lacks the CC punch as my previous list, but (hopefully) makes up for it with 6 Troop choices.  I've also spent a good amount of points on vehicle upgrades.  Despite what the majority of the Internet says, I believe that Night Shields AND Flickerfields are very worthwhile upgrades, and should make an appearance in well-rounded lists.

  1. Yes modified KP missions make it a bit tougher for me, especially when the modifiers are on Troops lol.

  3. Good game as always Nick. Wanted to let you know that I made an illegal move when my 2 Chimeras drove up, disembarked their Veterans and then blew up both Venoms in turn 4. I then charged (!!!) both remaining Trueborn w/ my Melta vets and killed both of them in close combat, which is a pretty big whoopsie.

    Sorry about that, don't know what the heck I was thinking. =( I was replaying the game in my head last night and realized that the charge wasn't legal.

  4. No worries Erick! Maybe we both thought they were those new open-topped Chimeras.

  5. Did you find the list offered enough shooting? Ironically, I think DE might struggle with anti tank, or at least a tank spamming army, in many ways.

  6. This list offered me more shooting than any list I've used before. That being said, yes, I still struggle dealing with mass amounts of AV12. I'm not sure there's any avenues to remedy that within the Codex. I think I just gotta work harder for those side shots :-D
