Dark Eldar Old School. (will be out of date soon)

13 days away to hopefully hearing an announcement on Dark Eldar. So here is a couple lists to use in the mean time. I will be posting a couple of my old projects probably later today. These are old VDR rules vehicles etc.

When I am not goofing off with mandrakes, these are Dark Eldar list that I enjoy playing, and can win a few games. It is not a wych army list. Note that in both armies, I carry portals, these are mostly for 1/3 of games which dawn of war comes up. Note that in other games if you use one of these, its mostly for the wyches and dracon in the variant list I put up.

Both of these lists can be easily altered slightly with similiar play style. Here is the plan. Depending on opponent and mission, warp portals are available. Wyches have a raider moves 12" deploy 2, run, and assault. giving them up to 27 inches of assault reach. If they get a 12" assault make it almost 33". Using the dracon. Remember he doesn't get fleet, but the Archon riding with him will, and using his drugs, will be able to assault up to 33" when he breaks away from the squad. In the smaller list, he breaks away from a wych squad.

The rest of the army is there for fire support. 6-7 raiders, and 3 ravagers. The large squads of dark eldar should be moving forward most of the game with the exception of opening warp portals.
