Hey guys, i'm finally picking up a bunch of dark elf models i found someone selling after loving them when i was a kid but never buying more then a box of old mono pose warriors. I've recently been playing tomb kings, dwarfs and skaven. With the models i'm picking up below is my list i think i will get going with and learn the nuances of dark elves.
dreadlord -
crimson death
armour of darkness
pendent of khaeleth
sorceress
lvl 2
tome of furion
power stone
sorceress
lvl 2
darkstar cloak
dispell scroll
TOTAL CHARACTERS - 580
20 warriors (1 sorceress)
shields
full command
18 corsairs (dreadlord)
full command
sea serpent banner
10 xbow men (1 sorceress)
shield
muso
5 dark riders
muso
crossbows
5 harpies
TOTAL CORE: 677
12 witch elves
hag
5 cold one knights
muso
7 executioners (will follow a unit that hits heavy armour and flank)
muso
TOTAL SPECIAL - 363
2 reaper bolt throwers
1 hydra
TOTAL RARE - 375
TOTAL - 1995
Any advice on the list? Other models i have unused are a cauldron of blood, assasin, 7 more witch elves, about 12 more warriors, 4 more xbow men, a black dragon, a dark pegasus and i can pick up more characters if needed. I know this list isn't a powerhouse but is it built well enough to compete in casual games and get a feel for the army? Should the builds be more optimised? Currently i plan on eventually dropping some stuff to add in 15 black guard with ASF and 5 shades with great weapons. I could also straight out swap the corsairs and executioners in the above list for a dragon but i worry my warriors and witch elves will be too slow to keep up....
