2000 pt Dark Eldar "Death by 1000 Cuts" List

Postby Galador » Wed Apr 20, 2011 3:23 pm

Came up with this last night to mess with IG Leafblower lists and any Horde lists that I end up facing for fun. This is only a semi-competitive list at most, but should be great to see the look on your opponents face when you put it on the board!!! King and Time, can't wait to hear what you think, along with any other people who wish to comment!! List building has always been one of my favorite things to do when I'm bored, and I love to come up with and use the weird lists that noone thinks will work, only to find out that they work better than expected!

Total Points: 2003                                                                            


Now then, the breakdown, first is Anti-Tank, then Anti Infantry:
9 Dark Lances
9 Blasters
20 Haywire Grenades

10 Splinter Rifles
2 Shard Carbines
24 Splinter Pistols
2 D6+1 S D6 AP flamers
22 Splinter Cannons

18 S8 AP2 shots at 18" at up to 6 different targets, with 20 Haywire Grenades assaulting up to 4 targets, for a total of 10 possible Armour targets a turn makes this decent for Anti Tank.

132 Poisoned 4+ shots at 36" with up to 11 different targets, 142 Poisoned 4+ at 24" at up to 13 Different targets, 148 Poisoned 4+ shots at 18" at up to 15 different targets, 182 Poisoned 4+ shots at 12" at up to 19 different targets, and then the 2 special flamers once in template range, but not adding any separate targets.


All in all, this is a horde army's worst nightmare, and will reliably scare anyone who likes footslogging armies!

Let me know what you think!!! :D

That would depend on how many units your opponent was able to kill in the first place! :D

This DE list has the potential to deal out a world of hurt and pain, things the DE excel in.

Meh, I'm getting deployed next month, so provided that the summer of flyers actually does happen, The wife will be getting quite a few packages while I'm gone!


I just really wanna put this list on the board against a Green Tide or Leafblower and watch them be very, very scared..... :lol:
