darthken - December 22, 2007 10:54 AM (GMT)
G,day all DE player's Im just trying to put together a list of all DE players on this site.
So let us know who you are
Name: Ken ( Darthken)
been playing DE for about 8 years now with my Kabal of the Venomed Fang.
Army is themed around jetbike tactics, using the DE speed to my advantage
I know ATM DE players are few and far between but hopefully when our new codex comes out (sometime near the end of next year) we'll bring in a whole new batch of players.
edit as you can see DE players are thin on the ground. If any other players have any tactics or advice to give please add them to the tactics discussion section
The Kabal's and Cults of the craftworld (updated 10 Feburary 2008)
Darthken: Kabal of the Venomed Fang, themed around jet bikes.
DrPhibes: Kabal of the Grey Strike, themed around WWP tactics
Spacefrisian: Kabal of Terror.
Batface the Hat: Cult of the void, tactics the raider rush.
Euleze: Kabal of Despair
Farseer of beil-tarun: Kabal of the Frozen Claw

Name: Anthony (Dr. Phibes)
I've played 40k on and off for 6 years. I've only really gotten serious about it in the last year and a half or so.
I generally theme by Kabal of the Grey Strike around solid assaults out of Web Way Portals backed up the the Dark Eldar's generally good armor control from dark lances.

Name: Auke Kobes
Been playing Dark Eldar for 1 year now (although they were in my starters box +/-8 years ago)
My army is called "the Kabal of Terror" although i could also field them as a Wychcult. No real theme in it although i tend to make a laugh and annoy people when i take their models by means of slave raid.
(Speaking of slave raid would it also stop Necrons from the Well be back thing as they are taken away.)

Dark Eldar can't take Necros as captives ever.
For fluff reasons because almost or all dead necrons are assumed to phase out.
Here is a link to the Q&A. This links to the PDF. Though this is an older Q&A nothing has changed about Necrons or their WBB rule that should/would change this answer.

I'm Mike, or.. well.. the Hat.. I've been playing my Cult of the Void for about a year and a half to two years. I can't really remember. I mostly run it as a Raider Rush, and rarely run a Webway Portal. I do enjoy having a Warrior-Sniper DL squad or two when the need calls. As a personal thing, I don't care for the way Webway Portals work at the moment, but may pick them up in the future, as I enjoy the concept. It works fairly well for me, and I usually do well even against opponents who expect it. Most of my troubles in the past come from playing against Eldar, particularly InquisitorMatticus, another poster on this board.

I'm interested to know since I don't think I've ever done it but, what do you mean by a Warrior-Sniper DL squad? Is it just a normal warrior squad with DL's that just sit back and shoot from afar??
Batface the Hat - December 30, 2007 02:57 AM (GMT)
Aye, just the normal 10 warrior squad with DL's. I've mostly heard them refered to as Sniper squads when refering to DE. Quite effective, and I've never seen a DE player with accurate Raider-borne Dark Lances. Most of them also fail their first Shadow Field save when showing someone what it does for the first time.. Ah.. Amazing times..

name = maxwell M. (farseer of beil-tarun)
i've been playing warhammer (fantasy + 40k) for about 4 years. i mostly play imperial armies (which i am currently building up - if you have any extra imperial stuff you don't need, please pm me) but to get away from them i am making a little collection of dark eldar. right now i have my archon, kir-zhen, and a trooper with a splinter cannon.
the name of the collection, is the kabal of the frozen claw. i am only starting these guys as a collection, i have almost no intentions of playing them till i deem i have enough of an army painted. i will post pictures if anybody thinks i should.

Name = Josh - Euleze
I've played DE for about 3 years, but recently had a big move of location which resulted in the selling of my entire DE army :( shame.
My collection name is Kabal of Despair. I will continue to use that name with my new collection, when and if I get it

I'm Danny from The Netherlands and I've played for 2 years when I was about 16/17. Then had a pause up untill a year ago and I'm now active for a year again. So you could say 3 years really active with W40k in total. DE is my main (and only) army and I recently named them:
- Kabal of Insane Enslavers
- Whych Cult of Haywire Stranglers
Need to write fluff and paint almost 75% still. I have already assembled almost everything though. And I think I have about 3,000 pts at the moment.
