Cheers for making want to start another army....

[@joshweatherston7072]

As a total noob to the old world who got the old dark elf start collecting box this is such a useful video to watch. Thanks guys!

[@oldworldfanatics]

Thanks mate, great feedback that it's helpful. ! cheers

[@perfidy1103]

Great stuff. I was assuming this would be Bretonnian's, so pleasantly surprised to see Dark Elves sneak in first.

[@perfidy1103]

Really wish Lifetaker was 25 points, as I'd love to take it on a Shades champ

[@Zenfoxgames]

They are sneaky!

[@KharashTestDummy]

I’ve had a lot of joy with the Cold One knights. And a Master/Dreadlord on a Cold One chariot is pretty durable (and can dish out a lot of damage)

[@Zenfoxgames]

Yeah I didn’t really get to touch on the master on the chariot, but it’s a great combo. Can also make him a BSB and the +d3 CR banner to have a big chunk of CR even before you fight. -Sean

[@ONI09100]

corsairs should have chariot runners

[@hugo7946]

Yeah they lack something
Either a cost reduction or a nice niche rule

[@mattmorris857]

Nice reviews guys.

[@goatman9998]

Yes dark elves

[@oldworldfanatics]

Thanks for watching

[@VonHalphas]

I see some potential with Doomfire Warlocks if you put the assailment spell "Daemonic Familiars" on it, which gives 2D6 Strength 2 hits with no armour save (6+ spell).
On top of that you have 6 Poisonned attack and 10 attacks from the Dark steeds. All of that with movement 9, you can hunt a lof of things and be quite a nuisance in general.

[@sambelzebub8503]

The murderous special rule is still just a giant joke ^^ also very sad and feels like those rules where created with no oversight.

[@MoonyPoet]

I think the Lore Familiar is a weaker choice in any list with an item that gives you +1 spell if placed on a level 4, unless the army hinges on spell combos. The ability to get a signature spell is too valuable when it's as good as Black Horror.

Issue with dark elves is that on release they was weak and then gw went back and nerfed a couple of things in the legacy pdf and made them even weaker
