it's almost as if you read my mind

i totally agree with the spikes/blades thing though, they should be for the causing of pain rather than making them look like a walking evil cliche.

mmhm, i've heard horror stories about DE winning on turn one :P haha. just hard to use and easy to be shot up cause of their crappy armor. i'm with the others though too, a darker, more brooding/less spikey line of models is needed...desperately !

there's nothing wrong with spiky - it just needs to be done in a slightly different way.

just how nasty are the dark eldar?! well, here's the wych archite my mate likes to use;
wych weapons, punisher, tormentor helm, drugs, shaodw field, animus vitae, xenospasim.

so to being with that's a WS6 IC who halves your WS typically causing you to need 5's just to hit! of corse, she's throwing out at least 5 S5 power weapon attacks. the second she captures a prisoner, she gets +1WS & +1A! as for shooting ability, she has a S3 ap3 template which also causes pinning tests as -1/model hit! oh, and once that 2+ shadow field save is gone, she has a 4+ invulnerable save in hand-to-hand to fall back on!
nasty yes?!!

also, no army can pin the enemy like the dark eldar can... horrorfexes & terrorfexes will leave you pulling your hair out!
and then there's the webway portal...
yep, when used well, you can't defend against the dark eldar! they simply eat you at their leasure while you chase after shadows and/or cower in terror...

i can't wait to see how they balance these suckers out as it will prove a real challenge. they need to keep that fragility, but they also need some tonning down so that you at least stand a semblance of chance!

cheers!
