Dark Eldar List #2

So I'm sitting here and thinking of a fun way to use the new beast master entry in the book and came up with this:
HQ-

2 Haemonculi-100

Elite-

3 Trueborn-146
3xBlasters, Venom w/Double Splinter Cannons

3 Trueborn-146
3xBlasters, Venom w/Double Splinter Cannons

3 Trueborn-146
3xBlasters, Venom w/Double Splinter Cannons

Troops-

9 Wracks-190
Liquifier, Agoniser, Raider

9 Wracks-190
Liquifier, Agoniser, Raider

10 Wyches-210
Agoniser, Plasma Grenades, Raider

10 Wyches-210
Agoniser, Plasma Grenades, Raider

Fast Attack-

Beast Masters-172
4 Beastmasters, 2 Claw Fiends, 2 Razorwing Flocks, 2 Kymera

Beast Masters-172
4 Beastmasters, 2 Claw Fiends, 2 Razorwing Flocks, 2 Kymera

Heavy Support-

Ravager-105

Ravager-105

Ravagar-105



As you can tell the core of the list remained pretty much the same. I'm a little worried about the total number of troops I've got but each of those beast packs is set up for excellent wound allocation and packs a nasty punch in cc. The only downside being the majority toughness is 3 which makes the entire unit easier to wound. I could fix this by changing the units like so:

Unit A:

5 Beast Masters, 4 Clawfiends, and 5 Kymera (though this makes it majority toughness 3). Clawfiends might be better on their own to take advantage of their T5.
Unit B:

2 Beast Master, 4 Razorwing Flocks

This might be something I try too but right now I'm really excited about all the possibities the codex has and wanna give the main army a try as it increases my flexibility.
