Hey everyone,
Here is the final draft of my Dark Elf list for the upcoming Grand Tournament. I havent play test this list at all. I was able to play test the previous list about 6-7 times with a good success rate. I decided to go ahead and add in the Cauldron BSB and remove the Master BSB. Let me know what you guys think, obviously its already pretty much set in stone, but I would still appreciate some feedback!

One thing that I am not 100% sold on, is the gear my assassin is carrying. I could also gear it out with the following: Dance of Doom(5+ ward save), Rune of Khaine(+ d3 attacks), and Black Lotus (reroll 1's on the to wound roll). That would make him a bit more killy.

I like the list a lot, it's nice and brutal. How has the +1 movement banner on the cauldron been? I don't even know what it's movement value is. Does the 1 inch off additional movement end up making much difference in keeping up with the rest of the army?
@ Greg: I’m going to use shadow on the Supreme Sorceress and Fire on the Sorceress. Hope for Fireball and Flaming Sword. Both will greatly help my crossbows Haha.
@Jon: Sure! I would love to. Maybe Wednesday night?
Hmm. I had my shedule mixed up. I actually do have to work this Friday. I have next Friday off before conflict.
Want to try a practice game one day this week Brian?
The list looks pretty brutal to me. You're going to be glad you added the Cauldron! What magic lores are you running?
