==Why play Dark Elves?==

==Army Special Rules==
Hate High Elves, +1 in casting rolls. Massive revision.

==Magic item comparison==

==Units Analysis==

=== Named Characters ===
* '''Malekith The Witch King:'''
* '''Morathi:'''
* '''Malus Darkblade:'''
* '''Shadowblade:'''
* '''Rakarth The Beastlord:'''
* '''Kouran:'''
* '''Crone Hellebron:'''
* '''Tullaris:'''

=== Lords & Heroes ===
* '''Dark Elf Highborn:'''
* '''High Sorceress:'''
* '''Noble:'''
* '''Sorceress:'''
* '''Beastmaster:''' Next to useless. The only sensible way to use is to ride manticore to battle and manticore could bea nasty surprise in smaller (~1000 points) games. The downsides are huge points cost and taking two hero slots. And the beastmaster will die as soon as it is in combat.
* '''Assassin:''' Completely useless. Avoid like plague.

=== Core Units ===
* '''Dark Elf Warriors:'''
* '''Corsairs:'''
* '''Dark Riders:'''

=== Special Units ===
* '''Cold One Knights:'''
* '''Cold One Chariot:'''
* '''Executioners:'''
* '''Harpies:'''
* '''Shades:'''
* '''Witch Elves:'''

=== Rare Units ===
* '''Black Guard:''' Only a madman would use these. Utterly useless unit which belong to the "Elves on the Shelves" category of Fantasy settings.
* '''Cauldron of Blood:''' The big killer is it can't move. Apart from reaper bolt throwers dark elves don't really have the equipment to make a gunline and this takes up a rare slot so you can only get two throwers.
* '''Reaper Bolt Thrower:'''
* '''War Hydra:'''

== Tactics ==

=== Know your Weaknesses and know your Strengths ===

=== Army compositions ===

===City Garrison army list===

===Watch Tower Patrol===

==Cult of Slaanesh==
This is an unique list of the 6th edition since it combines two armies (Chaos and Dark Elves).
=== Lords & Heroes ===
* '''High Sorceress:'''
* '''Noble:'''
* '''Sorceress:'''

=== Core Units ===

=== Special Units ===

=== Rare Units ===
* '''Chaos Knights''' Takes two rare slots, must have Mark of Slaanesh and can't be upgraded to chosen. Since bolt throwers are essential, these are rarely seen.
* '''Reaper Bolt Thrower:'''

=== Synergies ===
