Thanks for the replies. The spearelfs are not finished, I make it less brown. Here are some corsairs: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/Dooppie/Dark%20elf/corsairkltest2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/Dooppie/Dark%20elf/corsairkltest.jpg First I try too paint as many dark elfs as po...

Impressive painting skill!!
Wow.
Love the colour combo and the banner.

At the moment I paint some dark elfs and I wanna know if the army looks ok? Here some pictures: Spearmen: m m http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/Dooppie/Dark%20elf/darkelfspachter.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/Dooppie/Dark%20elf/darkelfsplone.jpg Dragon: http://img.photobucket.com/a...

230 points for 19 Corsairs are nice and with the nice amount of attacks you can kill a lot.
Dunno about the frenzy rule, the +1 attack is good on the other hand enemy can control the corsairs movement (you must charge rule).
I have not jet the new 8th edition rule book

Master on manticore seems more risky in 8th edition. You could try a master on Dark pegasus. Give the master magic item Cloak of hag greaf and it can survive lot of enemy magic/shooting. Manticore is more powerfull then a pagasus. 150 points difference is big. 150 points more you can have an other m...

Use the high elf models as scenery.
Like put some dead reavers between the trees.

Nice too know.
Can a Dark Pegasus bekilled and the mounted model will fall of the beast?
or does it count as 1 model like dark steed + master?

Kinda heavy magic in 1500 points.
How many % the high elf player use for charackters?
Mage lord = 360 points?
Mage hero = 135 points?
around 500 points is 33 % of the army intoo charackters

use bolt throwers too kill on long range and anti magic stuff.

Cannons allow armour saves (although S10 means that normally nothing would get an armour save) so this master would get a re-rollable 3+ armour save against cannonballs. Strength 10 equates to a an armor-strength modifier of -7, and the best armor save possible is 1+. Bottom line is that there is n...

Comparing 21cors AHW SSS banner to a 21unit witch elves (std/mus but no champ, both considered to be used with an COB in army and with 7x3 formation): Cors cost 25 pts more (250 compared to 225). Cors do not have poisonous attacks which WE do. Cors have 1 less initiative than WE. Cors unit can be j...

The new Rulebook FAQ clears up that 2xAP is stil only AP Good they make a faq of it. Thanks for the information. Icing Death The look of 40 Corsairs is very cool and I think it's fun/handy too use it 40 Corsairs seems very hard too move. Big block Maybee i try 2 units of 12 Corsairs (each unit = 2 ...

10 RHB corsairs can shoot in 2 ranks so 5 models in front and 5 in the back. Seems very flexible during movement. 10 points for each corsair is 'much' point but for shooting it could work. 8th edition means enemy armies use more bigger blocks of unit. Maybee small shooting units is good agains it.

In short: Use the eye's reroll if any of your rolls is TERRIBLE. If your rolls aren't terrible, use the eye when you need 4+ to hit (unless those rolls are abnormally good.) If abnormally good, then save eye for stand-and-shoot or next turn. This is a very good one People use The Guiding Eye in som...

The cloak of the corsairs are very nice collour.
The overall theme is nice

Keep up the good work.

Put plastic card on all 25 the spearpoints:



Maybee I put some detail on the plastic card.

Great convertions.
There is a modline on the banner.
For some reason I do not like the banner girl.
Could be the head.
or holdding a 2 handed weapon in 1 hand and the banner in the other.
Must be a strong elf...O well.
All other models are very nice looking.

Keep the good work going.

About the shields: To make it more elven, you could put a Druchii rune on the large center scale. I quite like the idea of the scaly shields. Corsairs and most heroes we field wear SDCs, so a bit more of the scales could go very well. I also like the nasty idea that perhaps they were skinned from f...

Calisson nice report about the dark riders

10 shielded Dark riders sounds fun too use.
15 or more dark riders is a bit big unit and harder too wheel the unit.

Seralkith wrote:I love it, keep the spears shields, it's a very good idea. All you need to do is find a way to make the part where the blade meets the shaft of the spear less abrupt.

Good point.
Maybee glueing very thinn plastic card on that part will make it better.

Thanks for the replies

Those collours on your black guard and cold one knights are realy good looking.
nice painting skills and keep the good work going.

25 Dark elf warriors:


Dunno about the spears.

Agains small units with stuborn you can shoot them down more easy and outnumber by fear. is there an big unit that is stuborn it's depents on his point cost. an stuborn unit with a charackter + magic banner + lot of stuborn troops. then it will be hard too kill them in combat and shoot them too deat...

Depents on your army list, what you can do. Use movement well and hills + tree are you safe place too hide troops behind. You can use a lord with item: Cloack of Hag graef (all ranged stuff willl be half strenght). Black dragon egg and put you lord on a dark steed. Put your lord behind wood. Your ga...
