2500 - First list in 2 years
Brothers, It has been too long since I've enjoyed the pleasure of victory over the lesser races. I've decided to come back and try my hand at making a list. Advice and tips would be best appreciated. I know there are improvements on this list but I don't know where or what to do. Supreme Sorceress 3...

Run him with the dawnstone/cloak, scourge combo to give him better flexibility. He can handle warmachines, small units and is much more survivable. If you really are worried about magic, sacrifice him by slamming him into the unit and get B2B with the caster. Your opponent will challenge in the firs...

Hmm. I realized I was actually looking at the first draft of ETC. Hence my choice of Shadow still. I think Shadow is still viable for what I was using it for (I should be close enough to use the withing anyway) and I don't rely on mindrazor. I more focus on PoS, Enfeebling, Withering and miasma. Gra...

I would agree that the Hall of Fame should have subsections with: 1. General gaming lists that have no restrictions but are highly specialized 2. Throne of skulls lists 3. ETC 4. Any Dark Elf list that has won a major tournament since 8th edition 5. Weird and creative lists that are unique but still...

What limits on death magic in ETC other than the max dice rules? Although I don't think this list fits into ETC 2012 unless they revamped past their first draft. If there is a newer rule set, please point it to me. You have a CoB, a Death/shadow sorceress and a hydra. You can only have two of those....

Welcome to Druchii! You're right that most armies will feature the crazy high toughness or high armor save deathstar and just grind their way through everything. You're being a bit gloomy about us not being able to do anything about it though! Go through the DRAICH posts and see if there is anything...

Miasma is also a good debuff, hitting on 5s or lowering a units BS down. I've considered both lores, but you would have to throw 3-4 dice with the metal sorceress to get the spell off and hope they don't dispel. Also, you're paying 150 points for the sorceress to be able to possibly buff the unit fu...

TBH, I don't really see posts in here about 3+ exec with a 5+ ward. I see that list whenever I go to tournaments or hear about it from other tournament people. They go to different tournaments across the local states. I'm always told to run the exec horde with metal because the 3+ armor save. I just...

Executioner Horde without Metal?
I was wondering if anyone runs the executioner horde without metal. I don't like the idea of running a lore specifically to help buff a unit. Sure it can be helpful against a couple other armies but there are a few that will not work that well against. I was going to run Shadow with the horde since ...

Well, we need a bit more information. Such as: What do you have in your list? Do you try to hit the chosen or avoid them? What level mage, how many mages? What does his chaos lords have and where are they? BSB? What lore do you take? Are his marauders deployed in horde formation with frenzy and flai...

This seems like a interesting druchii death star. My problem is what if they hit another horde? Then the corsairs are vulnerable. Also, you don't have to deploy them in horde formation do you? You can choose to put the command models in the back of the unit if there isn't enough space. This would ha...

The dreadlord is pricey at this points level but you could still take him. Granted that would leave you extremely vulnerable to magic since you could only take a lvl 2. For myself: Peg Dread Lvl 2 Dark Tome of furion (Normal mix, probably less emphasis on the shooting phase though) Sorceress Shadow ...

If you want to do damage at range with magic you need fire, dark, death or metal like Red said. Shadow is more for debuffs which help your army synergy. If you have a good amount of crossbows though, you can debuff their deathstar's T and M. Then you shoot them to death. Or lower their S/T and comba...

Yea, I can understand the fact that if someone brings tools to kill a hydra, it becomes twice as effective with two hydras on the table. I'm going to keep running it for now since I have a dragon in my list. Whenever I decide to stop having fun then I'll consider dropping the extra hydra. Multiple s...

Never thought about running a combat level 4 with the PoK. PoK, Crown of Command and the black dragon egg or a dispel scroll. 2 Breath weapons in combat, T6 for 1 round, Stubborn, Reverse ward save and 4+ wounds? Sounds like a combat winner or a really good speed bump that is extraordinarily hard to...

I should really clarify everything when I post. The big metal spell I meant was the big signature spell. So 2d6 hits. Same with Fireball. 3d6 S4 hits @Vincere - That may work. On average 1 of the sorceresses won't get PoD off. But the average roll to get a 17 will require 5 dice. Throwing 6-7 would ...

I must have said that wrong. I guess I meant bend the standard rules into your favor. Not necessarily create a broken or cheesy list. Your example is a good one because it is possible. Rolling a 1 in your winds of magic phase is going to hurt regardless of what the other number is. You're only 1 dic...

I was talking to a friend of mine about our magic phase and how to use it effectively. He seems to believe that in order to have an effective magic phase you need to bypass or "break" the standard rules. Dark Elves have 3 ways to break the magic phase into their favor. 1. Power of darkness...
