Introduction

Angry codexes are an attempt to improve internal and external balance. Check out the Angry Codex hub for the other angry codexes.

This codex will aim to lower the army´s number of poison and lance weaponry, this will be done to decrease the Deldars inborn proffeciency against monsters and Armour 14. This codex will feature a general buff to the codex.

Before you read any further, if you are a masochist and you just love your stuff getting killed/destroyed en masse. These changes will dissapoint you.

Editing

Feel free to edit wordings to improve readability. Before adding anything to an angry codex, first write in the discussion page of the page in question and say what you want to change. If no one responds within 7 standard days, feel free to change it. If someone objects you civilly discuss and prove your point. AngryPirate holds the right to edit anything at any time, he is however not a douchebag and will usually follow the rules above as well, if he does not, just write in the discussion page that something you wrote was edited out.

Dark Eldar are Desperate Allies with Eldar. Note that this means Eldar do not benefit from flickerfields and night shields. They are still Battle Brothers with Harlequins. Note that if you are using the Angry Muchking Eldar then they will count as Battle Brothers as normal.
