I've recently restarted my Dark Eldar and I took them to a fun 1000 points per player 2v2 random teams tournament today. I ran a list inspired by your tournament list. Skysplinter 1x Archon with nightmare shroud joining 5 kabalites (all the special weapons) and a court of the archon, in a raider 5 kabalites in a venom Lelith and 10x wyches in a raider 5x mandrakes 5x mandrakes Beastmaster I got second place but scored the most points out of everyone (the first game was my only loss and truth be told it was because the opponents were slow and timed us out) but it was fun.
Dark Elf players in many miniatures games tend to be awesome players to play with. You've convinved me to get a Drukhari combat patrol and hope to expand on it. Hoping to see you in Mtl, Qc someday :)
Hey Skari, why did Urien start in the Raider if he ended up hopping out and the Court hopping in on Turn 1 instead of just starting with the Court in the Raider?
@@MilesBamboo because I wanted the court on the table to see potentially heroic if the sentinels got too aggressive. As for urien, in a transport for an additional 3” Of move to make it easier for him to get to the mid board if needed.
I am really curious, because you have said this realspace raid army had been some of the most fun you've had with drukhari. I also play drukhari (suprise suprise) but felt that the problem with realspace-raid wasn't their strength, i always just felt they were boring, boring detatchment-rule, boring stratagems (the move-shoot-move is pretty fun) and boring enhancements, as well as everything being locked to specifik factions which means in practice every character has 2 enhancements instead of 4. Skysplinter fixed most of that (in my opinion) but you're saying the realspace raider army is more fun?? Why is that? I'm genuinely very curios, does it get more in-depth on the higher levels of play (I am quite new)?
@@emilyforsberg2055 I feel like I have more agency over the course of the game. More interactions within the phases of the game and this tends to mean I’m doing more. It is more tiring to play, but also more rewarding and I find that more fun.
Your delight with Urien over this series of games has had me laughing into my tea
@@jimbusher5895 hehe , urien is a boss !
Also, Dustin is awesome!
Agreed!
I look forward to seeing what you do after WCoW, you are a big reason im coming back to 40k, and comkng back on Drukhari (which I've bever played)
Welcome to the faction!
Merry Tanksgiving
Merry indeed ! You too
great game - lots of fun moments
Crazy moments !
Ohhh, big tank group. Getting ready for haywire glory.
Orrr the haywire does nothing , like my game against The French WtC captain at WCW this weekend lol
@SkaredCast ahhhh, the dice kin.
I can spare 10 minutes for this video during dinner. Oh wait! Is that Dustin?! Sure, what's 44 minutes? :P
Dustin is worth the entire batrep !

I got second place but scored the most points out of everyone (the first game was my only loss and truth be told it was because the opponents were slow and timed us out) but it was fun.
Thats awesome!
Great fun as always :-)
Glad you enjoyed it
This Urien is doing some work !
What do you think about going 2 Beast packs ? I'm curious to see how it would perform
@@francisbouchard2688 beastpack is awesome ! Two of them is good but you have to give up the points somewhere to add that in
Heck ya!
The best!

@@HansBohr awesome to hear ! I hope to make it out there for an event soon !
cadians can be joined by only cadian command squad (no mortar) and not from a standard command squad.
Indeed! We shall remember for next time :D
@@SkaredCast I too find this thing silly, but they're even priced differently in points... :(
What camera do you use to film? Nice victory btw!
I just use my phone
great game!
Thanks for watching

@@SkaredCast Got it, makes total sense. The extra 3 inches on Urien is very clever.
GG, buds!
It was a super fun time.
where can you get the color coded base additions as seen on the guard troops?
Squad marks ? You can paint them as you see fit ,
@@SkaredCast ohhhh i thought they were clip ons for the bases. Thanks
Why is the Rogal Dorn tank driving backwards, is there no rear and side Armour penalties?
Not in this edition lol
There haven't for three editions at this point!
Have a like and a comment. Hope you do great at that warhammer w w w thingy.
Thank you !
Beast pack to the face turn 1 sucks. I'd be getting pretty salty right there!
Beast Pack = best pack
Is that a platoon squad in shock troops?? Not allowed good sir…..
I see this misplayed occasionally
Will incur the wrath of the emperor !
