3000 points list. 50 pts Webway Portal 50 pts Portable Webway Portal Kabals 250 pts Kabal Coterie - Archon, 4 Incubi, 2 Raiders 250 pts Kabal Koterie - Dracon, 6 Warriors, 3 Raiders 375 pts Kabal Flotilla - Dracon, 6 Ravagers [BTS] Partisans 250 pts Reavers - Succubus, 6 Reavers 250 pts Reavers - Succubus, 6 Reavers 300 pts Scourges - Succubus, 6 Scourges 250 pts Heavy Barge - Vessel of Pain 325 pts Talos - 6 Talos Aircraft 200 pts - 2 Razorwing Fighters 200 pts - 2 Razorwing Fighters
The tactics would be similar using the Razorwing as CAP for air defence, and if the enemy have no aircraft, then as ground assault trying to avoid the likely massive ground based AA on the way in. The Vessel of Pain is there to try and handle enemy War Engines. The Reavers, Warriror, Incubi, and Talos are there for the Engagements, the Ravagers are a mobile support to kill off units and put Blast Markers on the enemy before engagements happen. I tend to use the Scourges to support engagements and then hold the objectives the enemy has lost. Their weapony has a better range than nearly all other Dark Eldar infantry.
For the Vessel of Pain use the Onslaught Destroyer Barge. Come in a 3 pack for US$17.50. I made mine before these came out by using 40K Reaver jet bike kit parts. The Razorwing fighters are harder to find, so I made mine using the other parts from the 40K reaver bike packs. I also found the 40K Helions pack provides nice parts for the airctaft as well.
You can just buy more of the Onslaught packs as you build more Dark Eldar formations.
I hope this list helps.
Another popular Dark Eldar is a drop assault list using a space ship, 2 Executioner drop ships (similar role to Thunderhawk gunships). They have 3d Printable files for these, or can be Scratch Built.
