Glad to see your Dark Eldar. Don't worry, there IS a learning curve. You need more boats. Raiders. And more warriors. In an 1850 list don't worry so much about an extra Archon. Drop the Wyches, drop the portal. Bring at least 5 more hellions. The Dark eldar are a subtle group. they must play cat and mouse a turn or two before the trap is truly sprung. If you're going to use your bikes in that way, don't give them heat lances. Also, give your Arena Champ a Venom Blade. Don't forget the Haemunculi coven as well. You can perhaps start the game with tons of pain tokens already on the board for the cost of a SINGLE HQ choice. Also, you've probably got enough bits laying around to build a Duke Sliscuss. I cannot stress how flipping awesome this dude would be for your army AS IS. Contraband is a great rule. Also, Barron Sathonyx is SUPER cheap and makes your hellions THAT much better. That aside, your army is fabulous looking and I can't wait to watch it and your knowledge of the force grow. Trust me, the Dark Eldar have a learning curve. I lost my first 5 or 6 match ups before it just 'clicked'. Now, no one at my FLGS wants a piece of my force. I've honed my tactics with them to such a fine edge.

The list may not be the best one, the webway portals aren't that great at all. Some good advice there, if you build another list. But don't give up on this one yet, it was pretty good. Also, DE-learning curve comes only from the fact that you have played something else earlier. DE was my first (and so far only, never played CWE yet although I have a few) army, and I tabled my first opponent at the second game. Yes, I have lost more than I have won ;) but in no way are Dark Eldar bad. Also, don't be too afraid to call DE as "eldar", they are of the eldar race after all (and some could argue, more eldar than the craftworlders)

Dark Eldar are a glass cannon army. They hit hard, but can't take hits back. The paint job you did was beautiful, by the way. I might recommend some beast packs, and a little more coordination (the reavers going out alone was basically a death sentence).

you are right, the dark eldar is no more than offense, the opposite of necrons. The necrons wait until the prey got close and then unleashed the scarab swarm whose took most of the most damage, but have locked the dark eldars in combat, what brought enough time for make the moves. Of course the nightscythes did the lions part, separating the army and harassing the remaining units, that is why necrons are the best if the player can use them. If I can say, this debut was a catastrophy, the fresh dark eldar army should attacked a more...weaker race, maybe tyrannids or eldars.

Great game - it's not so much the army, it's just they way you play them, Dark Eldar are SUPER fragile - they need a lot of cagey play to do well. Beast packs are awesome - especially the larger packs - but even with the forces that you have they can do well, providing they take advantage of the cover

Hi Guys - awesome video as always and VERY nice painting on those Dark Eldar - just love your dedication to great looking minis :) On rules: Necrons can't reanimate when they fall back. Command Barges still can't be tied in combat so they can't "break off from combat". Please use the Catacomb Command Barge (chariot) sweep attack rule :) It's an awesome extra attack. Also, a chariot does D6 hammer of wrath when charging at S6. Didn't see if you remembered those. Also, since Ghost Arks are skimmers, remember that you can move 12" with them and benefit from a 4+ cover save from jink.

Okay, great battle report! You are learning well with DE, and even though I was a bit skeptical about the list (the webway portal, otherwise I liked the way you made it), it worked surprisingly well. But, here are some things to work on (in no particular order but the first one is still the most important one): 1. Objectives. You went for them WAY TOO EARLY. That raider with the warriors could have given supportive fire against the wraiths and necron warriors by moving up to the city for a long time, and been mobile enough to get all the warriors back to the objective you had placed them in two turns even if they had been on the other side of the city. Scourges as well. Lesson: *Ignore* all objectives on the battlefield until turn 4. 2. The flyers. This goes along with the same problem that happened above. The warrior-raider could have skimmied under them to fire at the other units, keeping the warriors safer while the nightscythes would waste their next turns having no targets. It is easy to do this with any flyer (without vector dancer) if you have so many fast skimmers. You could have moved everything up to leave nothing on your side of the table. 3. Reaver-suicide. It is so tempting to do as soon as possible but you should have probably done it a little later! Also. I almost laughed when the monolith came right next to TWO units of haywyches :D You didn't need to worry about them at all, even though it sounded like you were a bit concerned at first.

Real shame that the reavers were wiped out so early! Difficult unit to use but devastating when done right. Like many others have said, DE are a difficult army to get used to, and necrons are just about the worst match up for them but they can be seriously powerful when you get the tactics and list right. My suggestions: scrap the webway portal and get more vehicles, be more conservative with the reavers until the right moment to use the bladevanes pops up; they can jump out of cover, shoot and jump back into cover (with the eldar jetbike move) all in the same turn until some vunerable units appear in the open. If you want staying power, a good beastpack can soak up wounds and attention and be v.destructive assault, always a good option but I like a talos&wracks with a haemy too; tough units, draws the eye (esp. talos) and can pack a few liquifiers, probably the best flamer in the game.

I'd replace maybe half the Wych units for warriors with a splinter cannon as you seem to be relying a little too much on close combat plus they equate to the same number of points of a standard Wych unit without upgrades. If you're planning to run a pure Wych list i'd halve the squad size for some of the units and put them in venoms ( still with haywire grenades though as they are awesome) , for added long range support with a splinter cannon for a few extra points. Another thing that you may find helpful is sending a tooled up squad of Wyches against enemy elite units as the sheer number of attacks you potentially generate will generally kill off more than their points worth of tough , but low numbered units i.e. terminators instead of sending them against generic dudes or tarpits. From observing your list I'd drop the 2nd Archon and possibly replace him with Duke Sliscus as someone else suggested for the joy of deep-striking all your raiders and Venoms rather than having to rely on the Webway portal in case the carrier dies and you can't get your units where you need them , plus the goodness of rolling 2 dice for your combat drugs and choosing the one you like, for added fun put him with a squad of 9 Trueborn with 7 shardcarbines and 2 Splinter Cannons for 29-33 poisoned (3+ due to the Dukes upgrade) from a deep-striking open-topped transport. Anyway beautifully painted armies as usual and hopefully you'll have more success with the Dark Kin in future.

Your clumsy management of the DE made me sad. I was looking forward to seeing DE Batrep and was hoping for their victory. You know now what went wrong and I know you can do better. The DE are the most difficult army to master and with some good dice I know you can return the favor of tabling the Necrons.

War Walkers, Swooping hawks, maybe warp spiders and dark reapers. i have only tried the first 2, but the long anti vehicle range of the War Walkers can really pack a punch, especially as the are one of the few Eldar units that have Skyfire ( the dark reapers might help with this.), and the swooping hawks can punch hard with the Blast marker the drop from close combat.

Dark Eldar are not an easy to use army full stop in my opinion. Severely lacking in any particular edge (apart from maneuverability that doesn't really win games). Lists that do win that I have seen on various tactic sites just use huge amounts of warriors/raiders/venoms and aren't that exciting to look at. Mine and quite clearly yours here get punished for trying to take semi interesting units, lets hope they have a better time in an update, they need a bit more variety like there goody, goody brothers, some armour that can take a punch?

monoliths are so useless, would prefer to see a annihilation barge.

With 2 night Scythes annihilation barges are just waste of points. SS82 could use Doomsday Arks or Triarch instead for long range shooting or a second ghost Ark, but monoliths are quite good blocking sight unit for tactical deployment even in 6ed.

z0zef disgree. You could not have night scythe firepower until turn 4 (if you're unlikely, or if they are modifying your reserve rolls). Having barges on the board would lend some consistent firepower to the army. (At least one barge. Probably another choice for the second one).

The current de codex tries to trick you into thinking its good at assault, but with the current shoot fest of 6th edition combined with the fragile nature of the de it is extremely difficult to be successful with an assaulty list. Like you said you where way to aggressive with the bikes. Witchs are no good out of a wwp, because they cannon assault. you basically put all of that stuff out of the webway for the necrons to shoot up in what i call the 12-24'' cron double tap kill zone. if you going to take hellions, you need to take like 20 for them to do anything and only if your taking the baron with them. I know you go for more themed lists and what you think looks cool, but de will punish that playstyle if you not used to them. i dont believe de can be spammy just because of the fragile nature. you need more transports for sure. either warriors in raiders with splinter racks or in venoms with double splinter cannons. you have to focus fire like there is no tomorrow. pick apart a flank and isolate it so that your whole army is only fighting parts of theirs at one time. ive played against necrons a lot in 6th so if you need any tips let me know. the key is reducing their firepower before they get in that 24 inch sweet spot. i try to take out anni barges first, the wraiths cause they scare me, then any warlords on chariots, i try to stay out of the monoliths sights as much as possible. then just focus fire one unit at a time. usually pretty successful

just wondering why you are playing a 5th edition WWP foot centered list, instead of say a venom spam or a carnival list, to many smallish but expensive units, and not enough troops. For a 1800ish list this is quite weak. Especially since you know basicly what your playing against. Most of the time I really like your batreps, and you guys play on some of the best terrain i've seen in a batrep, just wish the DE list was a bit more competetive, and less fluffy.
