Editing Warhammer Army Project/Dark Elves (section)

===Army Composition===
*Characters:
**A pair of Sorceresses will serve you better than a single Supreme Sorceresses unless you need Mind Razor or Purple Sun.
** Pair a Sorceress with the Sacrificial Dagger and a large unit of Bleakswords for even more dice.
** Keep your BSB and most expensive mage in separate Dark Rider or Warlock Bunkers.
**If on a budget a Master in a unit with the Standard of Discipline is a cheap way to a general to leadership 10.
** A Master on a Darksteed, with Heavy Armour, Sea Dragon Cloak, Shield, Lance, Repeater Crossbow and DragonBane Gem clocks in at 96pts with a 1+ save vs shooting and immunity to Fireballs and Searing Doom. This is who you’ll use to hunt that wizard hiding with archers. 

*Core
**With needing a hag for each Witch Elves or Hellebron, Hordes removed and Witchbrew not stacking with Cauldron Witch Elf focused list are out, but still a powerful DBPs unit with all the Synergy's that still have and gained.
**Corsairs are cheaper but went from being the best armored to the worst armored core unit.
**Dreadspears and Bleakswords are still a mainstay and unless you're taking a mounted only list, two or three should be included. Take one big unit if you're using the Sacrificial Dagger.
**Dark Riders are ever so slightly worse but still mandatory.
**Darkshards can win lots of shooting matchups with medium armour and shields. And unlike bows, can be double tapped on the move. Also, they're no pushovers in melee and if given shields perform identically to Bleakswords.

*Special
**Take as many Bolt Throwers as you can, one cost the same as 5 Darkshards. You’ll get 60% the shots at +1 strength, twice the range and hitting on 3s vs 4s and 5s.
**Cold one knights hit hard on the charge with the inclusion of impact hits. With Hydra’s moved to rare this is the unit you’ll be flank charging with.
**Executioners you need a unit of these, especially if you opt not to take Black Guard, they’re here to kill anything that needs to die.

*Rare
**With Hydra, Doomfires, Cauldron and Black Guard all competing for rare now, something is going to be left at home. If going the Cauldron Route, you should mount a Hag Queen on it so it counts in character. Now you have  two choices to keep rare under 500pts. Hydra w/upgrade (220) + unit of 10  Warlocks w/champion (230) = 450. Or, a 25 man unit of BlackGuard Full Command and Razor Standard (460).
