List of the month (Dark Eldar 1750 pts)

Not Burned out, just playing the game.

The past few months been pretty quiet on the painting side of the hobby. After many, many weeks playing Warmahordes, we switched to 40k, trying out our army that we only let out a few times (4-5 games maybe in 5th ed?).

I have roughly 1500 pts of completely painted Dark Eldar, with only a few units still unpainted (Hellions) or not bough yet (Reavers).

Here's my current V6 Dark Eldar list, 1750 pts of shooting goodness...

Some people will complaint about the lack of lance weapon (after all, i only got 10 Dark Lance, and 4 Blaster Shot), But so far, unless i decide to go with some Ravager, i can't see how i can squeeze more.

When it comes to melee, Incubi are the can opener, and Hellions are just hoping for massing attacks.

I'm still learning the game, but i'd go as far as saying that its a very fun list to play, and even if its not the most competitive list possible, for now it allows me to bring as much painted models as possible.

My current ennemy is an Ork player, who brings 2-3 small mobs (15-20 Boyz), a Battlewagon (yeah, he still hasnt learned), 10 lootaz (finally understood their use, after me pestering him about using them) and 2 Dakka Jet (usually the game winner).

I'm still resisting the urge to buy a aegis line (mainly because it would means i need 10+ extra warrior, which i do not own at the moment), and because i'm not sure the unit would survive mass shooting anyway.

Coming up later this week (hopefully), some picture of my finished Incubis, and my next project (another? quite probably)
