Dark Eldar Halloween List

A few years back, I organised a haloween game of 40k. It was imperial guardsmen vs the walking dead. Well not really the walking dead, but they *were* Grotesques , Talos and Haemonculi. It was great fun to have the Grots trot across the board while the Guard were pouring tons of ineffective fire into them.

So here's a 1500 point Dark Eldar Halloween list for the new codex:

• Haemonculi Coven
• 95pts - Haemonculi[1] w/Webway Portal, Liquifier Gun
• 95pts - Haemonculi[2] w/Webway Portal, Liquifier Gun
• Elites
• 185pts - 5x Grotesques* w/Aberration
• 185pts - 5x Grotesques* w/Aberration
• Troops
• 100pts - 9x Wracks w/ Liquifier Gun
• 70pts - Raider, Flicker Field[1]
• 100pts - 9x Wracks w/ Liquifier Gun
• 70pts - Raider, Flicker Field[2]
• 100pts - 10x Wracks w/ Liquifier Gun
• Fast Attack
• 130pts - 5x Scourges w/ 2x Splinter Cannon
• 130pts - 5x Scourges w/ 2x Splinter Cannon
• Heavy Support
• 135pts - Talos Pain Engine* w/ Chain Flails, Additional CCW, Heat Lance
• 135pts - Talos Pain Engine* w/ Chain Flails, Additional CCW, Heat Lance
• Total: 1530pts

*: These units are deployed in the Webway

Is this an effective list? Nope. With only 3 Lances and 2 Heat lances, vehicle heavy lists will be a problem. But to take objectives from infantry, especially after the portals are deployed? Oooh boy, it will mess them up. Feel no pain on most units from the start of the game is going to help immensely. Remember to attach the Haemonculi to the Grotesques after deploying the portal to prevent them going on a rampage.

Happy Halloween!
