Hi all,
first of all i have to say, that i'm really pleased to see that there are still others who play Darkling Covens
Years ago i played Dark Elves 7. Edition Warhammer Fantasy and some times i really miss the old days ^^".
I miss so many things when i compare DC with the newer factions. Me and my friends just started to play AoS in the end of 2017 so i dont have thaaat much experiences in the Game, but the ones i made we're some kind of rough ^^ My friends play Stormcasts, Sylvaneth and Nighthaunt and they have no merci xP. I decided to stay Druuchii, do my best and hope to win a game some day x) (further i bought the whole army "new"because the 7. Edition guys were not that pretty). So gar i would like to show you my list and to share some thoughts of possible allies.
Mortal Realms Ulgu
Sorcerer on Black Dragon (Coven Master) - impossibly swift, mist blade (don't know if its the correct name in english, im german ^^". It's from the Ulgu relics and gives another -1 to Hit)
Sorcerer (jeah my coven has male members ) - doppelganger cloak
10 Spears
10 Swords
10 Shards
20 Black Guards
20 Executioners
Geminids
Thrall Warhost
1500/1500
Up to 2000 points i plan fill the Black Guards Up to 30. But with allies i'm not really sure right now. I like the dreadlord, but this guy is little to expensive for what he brings. I'm thinking of take a Hydra for some medicore flank-pressure. It's fast, it's tanky and i think it could fill this gap that DC sadly has better then Drakenspawn-Knights. Further the doomfire warlocks with 6MW-Spell look nice on the paper - some one tried them out? Ah and i don't want anything other then Druuchii in my list - so no golden Space Marines for me ^^
Chromatic cogs will be there in my 2000-list too, just had not the points by 1500 >.<
