I was part of the Toughest Girls in the Galaxy 2 Kickstarter and I was planning to make a Sisters of Battle army, but changed my mind since like a year ago when I funded the project. So I really liked the Void Elves (Dark Eldar) and Dark Elves models. I have already tried the Dark Eldar thing, so Fantasy elves it was.
I wanted to make my Dreadlord into an extremely formidable hand to hand fighter while keeping it WYSIWYG with the model (Sword in one hand, other hand empty, riding a manticore).
The assassin is there because my friend that I'm likely to be playing most of my battles against plays Vampires, so assassinating his necromancer is a big boon.
Sorceress because no elf army is complete without a wizard.
The Dreadspears are to be my main anvil, relentlessly marching across the board with the Darkshards following behind with supporting fire.
The Executioners will march along each flank of the Dreadspears to hammer any enemy units that get caught by the spearelves.
Bolt Throwers will soften up any ideal targets
Finally there is a War Hydra because why wouldn't I bring a War Hydra?
I've never played Dark Elves, and I want to know if this list is too weak or possibly too cheesy. Fantasy Battles is my "for fun" war game. I don't want to have my army loose all the time or be no fun to play against. I wanted to do an army with lots of models so that lots of models can be killed, because that is fun for my opponents, but I also like painting big stuff like the Manticore and War Hydra.
