Dark Eldar: Mathhammer Part 1


Dark Eldar: Mathhammer Part 1

So with the introduction of the Tau Empire, I was looking at moving back to a pure Dark Eldar army. The tricksy tricks of eldrad don’t provide a solution to tau whose rate of fire can only be combatted with…. Rate of fire and possibly speed. The question I now have facing me is well….. what should the make up of dark light and splinter weaponry be? Well the answer may lie in a bit of Mathhammer!

Dark Mechanicus (Chaos Marines Troop Review Part 1)

Hi guys this week I will be running through the normal Troops section of the chaos codex and how I see them being used.

Chaos Space Marines

At 13 pts each they look like a great deal on paper compared with their more expensive imperial counterparts however there are several reasons for this. The main being they don’t have ATSKNF which is a big deal. The other reasons are they can’t combat squad so this reduces flexibility in scoring and kill point missions, and they don’t have combat tactics.

Dark Eldar: Nemesis - Tau


Dark Eldar: Nemesis - Tau

I’m going to take a bit of a different approach to nemesis than my previous articles. Perhaps it’s time to tell you how id face an opponent and not just say how good or bad we are against them! Our Subject is Tau, the new kids on the block and the new thing in the internet. The normal discussion is….. How many Str 7 shots did you fit in? I Have 80….

Scary but are we, Dark Eldar, scared? Well let’s have a look!

Dark Mechanicus (Chaos Marine Special Characters + Hobby Update)

So last time I talked about Chaos Marine HQ's but you can’t finish looking at HQ options without looking at some of the big boys with a back story. To start with I think most of the Chaos Special Characters are well pointed none stupidly over pointed and none obviously under pointed like we have seen in a few of the 5th ed books Cough.." Coteaz "

So let’s get on with it.

Abaddon The Despoiler
He is the official boss man of this codex, weighing in at more points than a land raider you would expect him to be good.  


First of all let’s look at the hitting power he has. He has the option of two weapons to use, The Talon of Horus an AP3, reroll to wound, 2x strength lightning claw. Or His Daemon sword that gives him an extra d6 attacks +1 strength and an AP of 2, this all comes in with a stat line including WS 7 and I 6.
