130p to spend, how would you improve this army? (2500p)

Post by Champion_re »

Hello wise druchii generals! I've decided to really start playing WFB more often and I need your vile cunning to strenghten my Dark Elves. :twisted:

So, how would you improve this army with the 130:ish points I have left to distribute? The poll options are based on the additionals models I own, so no extra hydra or black guard for instance. Feel free to vote and, if you want, make an explanation for why that choice is much better. Or maybe add a new choice of your own just as advice. :D

Here is the current list (2500p):


Heroes (716)

Supreme sorceress – lvl4, Sacrificial dagger, Pendant of Kaeleth 320

Death hag – BSB, Cauldron of blood 225

Assassin – aHW, Rune of Khaine, Touch of Death, Black Lotus 171

Core (675)

30 Warriors – full command, shields, Banner of cold blood 240

24 Warriors – full command, shields 183

10 Repeater crossbowmen – champ, musician, shields 120

5 Dark riders – musician 92

5 Harpies 55

Special (690)

17 Witch elves – full command, Banner of murder 220

20 Executioners – full command, “MR1” banner 285

5 Shades – aHW 85

Cold one chariot 100

Rare (275)


War hydra 175

Reaper bolt thrower 100


TOTAL 2371



I have limited shooting (rxb + RBT + hydra) But I plan to even this out with taking a unit-smasher lore on my Lv4. I have an assassin + Exec's + cauldron to give KB so I won't go death lore in my first games (unless proven I rly need it).

4 Big blocks of infantry form the combat part with hydra + CoC to tip combat results in my favour. I realise I lack fast hitters like CoK's and dragon/manticore. The question is if 4 blocks is enough for a melee army or if I need a 5th. If I take more witch elves my strategy will probably often be aggressive where I overwhelm my enemy in closecombats.

Scouts, dark riders and harpies are there to pose a threat to war machines and other stuff, but I wonder if they are to few in numbers/units to be rly successful.

So, feel free to tell your opinion and please help me out by voting! :D
