Early Dark Eldar List Thinktake: Dual WWP's

This army is based off a Sslyth & Grotesque bomb.  They land behind enemy lines, or in areas of importance taking out hard to reach units.  This army is VERY different from anything else that I've run, but I'm excited to give it a try.


Dark Eldar:

Archon w/ WWP, Shadowfield, Huskblade - 160
9 Sslyth, 1 Llaheamon - 235
Haemonculi w/ WWP, Flesh Gauntlet, Armor of Misery - 150

6x5 Warriors in Venoms - 630

9 Grotesques - 315

3x5 Scourges with 4 Haywires - 360

Total: 1,850

Sslyth & Grotesques deepstrike down via WWP
Scourges deepstrike or start in hiding take out key armored targets that Sslyth and Grotesques cannot hurt

Venoms start on the board - try to hide until reinforcements arrive

Another Version of this army swaps the Archon & Court for a Succubus with WWP, Archite Glaive and 20 Hellions

  1. That is a brutal and nasty list. It's a shame there isn't a "teleport" style homer to reduce scatter for the scourges. That's their only issue. makes it difficult to get a good shot of...of course haywire blasters don't really care about your av...

  2. The other thing that's nice about Scourges / Haywire blasters is the 24" range. I can drop them pretty far away from a target and they can still get some shots off.

    1. That's particularly nice. For some reason I was thinking they had a significantly shorter range. Wow...the DE codex is pretty freaking awesome.
