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.

Disclaimer

Games Workshop in no way endorses this codex nor any of the other Angry Codices. No infringement is intended with this work, nor any other of the Angry Codices. The intent of the angry codices is NOT to make GW go out of business, but rather to improve the quality of the hobby, which leads to a happier and larger player base.

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 1 week, feel free to change it. If someone objects you should civilly discuss and prove why your idea is good and how it fits with fluff/is more balanced etc. etc. AngryPirate does not follow these rules, mainly because he is mostly editing stuff he himself wrote. If you don´t agree with an edit AngryPirate has made you can PM him or write in the talk page.

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.
