I stand corrected, panic is only once too, fear is everytime. I'm sure my opponents will be glad to hear that

Unit X is in combat. It is charged by two fear causing units in the flank. I takes two fear tests for each fear causer. Does it also take a panic test for being charged in the flank? You'll take two fear tests and two panic tests. But anyways, you don't get a get oout of fear test free card because...

[the entire DE army is leadership 8+. armies that have that = dwarfs Actually being a 9. elves Let's not just throw everything into a pile. High Elves and Wood Elves. Chaos also has LD 8 most all the way around. But, not to be guily of piling myself, let's say Chaos Undivided, Khorne, Tzeentch and ...

Good post Baron. Although I do question your soberness when choosing to use an assassin, the tactics surrounding the army itself could be rather nasty. Maybe you'd care to elaborate on why you feel the assassin is justified in his position within your army? And how do you think the crossbowmen will...

If I field any cold ones at all, I use chariots to flank my LD10 general. I do not believe my dark elf force is random in the least. Then you know in advance when your stupidity tests will be failed? {moderator edit} Tell me how you know these things before they happen. Since I typically bring at l...

Well Furion, that is clearly your opinion. Well thank you, since I've stated this more than once, I can't disagree. I still firmly believe that the DE should be played more subtle than O&G for example. This is not dodging any criticism that the DE are not as good as other armies'. GW has designed t...

So ok, Furion, I do agree with you in the sense that DE heavy magic doesn't rape ppl like some other lists' heavy magic do. So what? So what? Your opponents can do this to you. If you don't mind that advantage for them, then you have a point(scary one, but a point). However I do mind. So it's not s...

Please, I'm waiting for a DIRECT answer, not for a "you should play your sorceress cunnigly". there is no cunning in getting 4 units crushed in a magic phase by a single spell he can launch form behind a hill on the other side of the battlefield: it's just "roll the dice, roll high, kill the elves ...

Fine. I've taken a Magic Heavy list to RTTs and been successful. I took a High Sorceress, and 2 Level 2s supported by a BSB Noble. I placed 3rd Overall, short by 8 pts. Does that count? I think there was like 28ish competitors, with a nice varitey of lists, I finished like 3-0-1 with 4th Sportsmans...

Much as it pains me to respond to your petty insults, once again I find myself drawn into your sad little world of insult and counter insult. ( Or sarcasm and counter sarcasm, whichever way you want to call it ) If I wasn't an admin I would be issuing both of us with a warning right about now, so m...

We are discussing hireling wizards. As far as I know, what you speak of are 'hireling wizard lords', which are the level 3 or 4 DoW wizards. I cannot understand why you would this guy in your army. That's odd, I say the same thing about of a Dark Elf Sorceress and people want to crucify me. He can'...

Anyway, yeh, can't take them. I don't see why you would want to though, seriously.

They're cheaper and they have access to more lores making them more flexible in different circumstances. Who wouldn't want to?

Common to what some think, I've been playing for 11 years. A good while longer than most of you. I've won a couple of tournaments, only really recently getting into that scene. I saw a point on here that it's not Dark Elves with problems, it's other armies(refering to Skaven etc). That's probably t...

i dont know if im the only one, but i think it would be cool to give the dark elves a bit more of an oriental feel to it, or maybe GW should make a new army based on the oriental side of fighting, like with samurais and ninjas, with different disciplines in combat and stuff. It's comming in the nam...

Hi all, a quick question about responding to a charge w/ a retreat(fleeing). I'm not sure if you can pursue after fleeing from a charge. I'm about 80% on this, (you can't), but I just wanted to run it by the board for 2nd opinion. I just started teaching 2 friends of mine how to play and I've found...

I'm just trying to sift through the reliable info and the unreliable info. It's like pulling teeth to get someone to admit they use heavy magic around here but yet they so adamantly support it.

In light of DA's inspiring treatise, I offer my humble observations in similar format but with a different emphasis. Well maybe unlike DA, you'll put your money where you mouth is and actually start using a heavy magic list? A monkey with army builder can write an army list, that doesn't impress an...

DA: You just forgot the main problem of our sorceresses: RANGE. I'm not saying that we got lousy magic for what it does, but because we are most of the times unable to exploit it since range prevents our magic users to be where they need to use their power. No, he didn't forget, he just chose to ig...
