i just wanted to know, as i am new to the Dark Elves, does anyone else play Dark Elves on these forums?

i run an all calvery Dark Elven army, consiting of nothing but dark riders, colldone knights and chariots

really? how successful is that?
you wouldn't have many models on the filed but your charges especially from the cold one knights and chariots would kick ass, i think i'm just gonna go for a standard army though, i already have a reasonably sound list for 1,999 points, now i just gotta buy the stuff :D , one thing is for certain though i will nearly always enjoy the luxury of charging, my brothers play Tomb Kings and Dwarves :)

it has mixed results although i love being able to move 18" and still fire the repeater crosbows, so many shots...

yeah gotta love Elvish horses :D , and those crossbows, although fluff-wise i;m more of a long bow person myself

I play a City Garrision army which rocks. Due to 8 Bolt Throwers in 2k B).

8 bolt throwers?!?!?!?!?!
i gotta go and check this list out, all i remember from it is the front row using crossbows and the back ones using spears (which makes sense)

Bolt Throwers count as a Special choice & each choice gives you 1-2 so 4x2 = 8 Bolt Throwers :D the down side is thats 800pts :blink: so you wont get much else after characters & minimal 3 core.

Though chariots a core I think anyway if you havent the WD with them in it, you can find it here.

i already read it on the net, i think it was on the uk website (which is much more helpful than the Australian one, although i still look at both)

I know you read it but you were confused about 8 Bolt Throwers so I thought you needed another look :rolleyes:.

lol, ok then, it's the thought that counts :lol:

although it may have been a link into a death trap, being a druchii player and all :angry:

Yeah I know what you mean druchii players suck a$$ I totaly agree with you.

hey, c'mon im not bagging out your army, id appreciate it if youd do likewise

What are you on about dude, I was only agreeing with you no need to take it that way. Incase you think i'm lieing just to get along better with you i'm not. Everyone knows they suck A$$ it's fact. So I was only agreeing because it's the truth ok.

... druchii dont suck, druchii rock, and how were you agreeing with me when i said nothing be be agreed with...

Oh well I ment Reaper lol. Anyway druchii suck a$$ everyone knows it why bother argueing about it. Just face facts.

*Scratches head in confusion*

where'd all this come from?
anyway druchii are cool, you just gotta be a good player to use them otherwise you=dead :D

You can't change the facts Yuki.

yes but it appears that someone doesnt realise that a army is only as good as its general, ou pu a cr*p player behind the reins of of a dark elf army, theyll get beaten everytime all the dark elf players at my store are veterans and quite often they win store tournaments.

Honostly you cant blame an army for losing, its always ALWAYS the player fault...

AGREED!!!!!!!!!

50%50

I blame army lists, the dice & randomly generated terrain. Ofcourse in some cases it's the Generals fault. But in the small cases such as druchii, Harlequins, Snotling Hordes & many others through out GW, suck due the the actaul army composition..

i gotta disagree with that, all armies can be won with, Druchii are a very good army, you just have to know how to use them properly, it's just a matter of some armies are more forgiving than others and druchii definately aren't forgiving, although the dice can play a part (as Calaith will find out when we have our game :lol: , i have notoriously bad luck)

i'm starting a dark elf city-garsson army iand i think i'll go with the 8 reaper bolt thrower idea

hmm, that's a lot of firepower, could well work, of course it could depnd heavily on what kind of army you're up against
