Re: Gretings

Welcome to Druchii.net! You'll find all the help you could ever ask for here, there are a lot of experienced Druchii here.

Make sure to pick up some Warlocks and Witch Elves to get you back into it, those seem to be the go-to units everyone uses now.

Re: Facing a Nurgle Warriors of Chaos List

@Zenith - Luckily, he doesn't use any Chimeras, I'm happy about that. He focuses a lot more on just charging in with everything. It seems everyone has the same advice, just avoid all of his units until they are weaker. Pretty much goes against everything I usually do, but alright. In the game I had ...

Re: A New Dark Elf Variant List

Oh this is awesome! Sorry I haven't replied sooner, I kinda missed that people responded to this. It is a harder list to make up, the 6th edition lists were much simpler. But this does sound like more fun, a little more effort to make it. I was thinking that it'd just be core units mainly used for t...

Facing a Nurgle Warriors of Chaos List

Hey guys, I ran into a problem in the form of a Nurgle list a little while ago. I've never liked Nurgle, just the fluff behind him was disgusting and the army I faced just furthered this dislike. The main troubles I had with the list were the Nurgle Daemon Prince and the unit of 6 Ogres he used, and...

Re: Storm of magic with our new book!

Buy a good Hydra with your SoM points, one that will actually have a good chance of regenerating. I like using Morathi in SoM, but that was in the old army book. She hasn't changed much, but her spell-choosing is different. Malekith sitting in a Fulcrum is pretty pointless, the only real bonus is th...

Re: Need help Dark Elves 2400 List

Listen to Calisson on the formatting, it just makes our lives easier. Anyway, that second list looks pretty nasty. Nobody likes facing that many Crossbowmen and Reapers. And I like how you didn't spend a lot on characters, spread out the points so one model dying isn't a complete loss. Is it suppose...

Re: 2500 vs high elves

I wouldn't put a Sorceress with Cold One Knights, it's just a complete conflict of purpose. The Sorceress could help them in combat, but she's at a huge risk when they actually get into combat, even with the Black Amulet. If she lurks behind the Knights, then she can still buff/debuff units and she'...

A New Dark Elf Variant List

I started playing Warhammer in 6th edition and Dark Elves were my first army. Back then, there were a lot of variant lists that I'm sure a lot of you remember, and I always enjoyed having those options. I always toyed with a new variant list. I had made a couple of drafts for it, but never tested it...

Re: Need help Dark Elves 2400 List

I would change the Bleakswords for Corsairs. 2pts more and so much better. You could consider Witch Elves too, but I personally prefer the Corsairs. Are you dead-set on using Tullaris? Sure he gives his unit Frenzy of Executioners Frenzy, but Frenzy can be a dangerous thing to use. A skilled opponen...

Re: Help me build a army

The Dreadlord you have will be impossible to use until you get up to 2500Pts, you should consider buying on foot or on a Cold One. The Supreme Sorceress is always a good choice, just make sure you protect her. The Witch Elves should be a staple for every army you make. Witch Elves as Core Units is g...

Re: different 1000 pts list

Warlocks are 25Pts each, so the unit would actually be 125Pts. Otherwise, it looks like a good list. In small games like this, we have excellent shooting capabilities. And thank you for bringing up treble in a different topic, I love it when things carry over (and that is dripping with sarcasm). But...

Dark Elf Magic Cards Typo

Re: Dragon Princess from the New Book!

The thing about this list that seems to be a problem is the Sorceress on Dragon, it just doesn't happen often. They are two conflicting play styles put together just because they look cool, and because the High Elves have their Dragon Mages. Everyone has given several good ideas already, so I won't ...

Re: New Book - units and characters that will never be used

@Starlight, sword and shield gives you a parry save. It's only 6+, but you'd be surprised how useful it is. Spear and shield doesn't provide that bonus. Fleetmasters are completely pointless, and Beastmasters have few uses. It was really disappointing to see how we got screwed over with our new thin...

Re: You know it's gonna be a LOOOOONNNNG game when...

I'm with Red here, it's actually really easy to remember stats and the To Hit/Wound tables. I've had them memorized since 8th came out, did the same with 7th and 6th too. Dark Elf stats are the easiest to remember too, which means you basically know High Elves and Wood Elves too.

Same goes for the Venom Sword, if anyone uses that. But yeah, nice list. I've thought about doing a list like this f...
