Dark Eldar

I'm assuming it's pronounced Ara.

Ara is pretty interesting in that they are the only Phoenix Lord that we know of who has actually left the Phoenix Lords and gone to dwell with the Drukhari in Kormorag.

Or at least that's what's implied.

Ara was the original founder of the Striking Scorpions Temple.

I really like that.

I don't all Eldar do that.

Maybe those Drukhari should tell people about that as an option.

Like, oh, instead of just letting your soul go to the warp, maybe we just split it up and give it to everybody.

Have you recovered from game?

Yeah, my face is still recovering from uh, that Dark Eldar episode we recorded.

It's still pulled back tight.

Yeah.

Oh, fuck off.

And bro- [laughs] and with my bolter I will kill many Dark Eldar.

Wow.

That-

That's what I mean.

What is the problem?

Dark Eldar.

Oh, I am the problem?

Is it fun to play? Is it breaking the meta? Is the lore good? Those are the things that go into this tier list itself rather than is it getting results at competition.

Anyway, Phil, take us away with Drukhari.

Okay, the Saucy Boys, the Spicy Elves, the Dark Eldar, as they used to be called back in the day.

I think they are very cool.

i agree i fully agree i'm gonna disagree quite hard on the game side video games yes tabletop no oh my god some if they break the meta with the most ridiculous uninteractive crap that you could possibly come up against oh my lord that is awful

to quote meatloaf you took the words right out of my mouth yeah um when they break the game they break the game hard Yeah.

But like Drukhari, it's a load of T3 bodies, so you can tech into them, but you shouldn't have to tech into anything, right? That's why you have a balanced game, because you don't need to tech into things.

Even their

They consider it their territory, and they will expel invaders as often as they can.

All Eldari, the Harlequins, the Drukhari, the Corsairs, the Craftworlders, everybody, all Eldari, period, generally speaking, are like, yeah, no, this is ours.

Stay away.

And for good reason.

right all right oh my god uh i'm sorry i love when uh alexis starts talking about new york it's just hilarious because

my accent fully comes out

So the Supreme Overlord of Cormorog, which is where all the Drukhari, the Dark Eldar, live, is a guy called Asdrubal Vect, who is one of the most Machiavellian schemers that you will find in Warhammer 40k fiction, in the lore in general.

We should talk about him sometime because he's a really fascinating dude.

But what about the

Drukhari?

The Drukhari? The Drukhari, they'll go to Crone Worlds too, but for different reasons.

Quick call-out.

Yeah, grand breton from uh hawk moon definitely an influence on the empire

Ilkaith is very close to the Eye of Terror.

It's obsessed with fighting chaos.

It is known to ally with the Drukhari, the Dark Eldar, and even humans, to prosecute an anti-chaos crusade of a kind.

house.

One Dark Eldar player showing up to...

Yeah, exactly.

With all the, uh, what is that? The Dark Cannons or whatever? It's that 5-inch template AP2.

everyone.

Yeah, it was one of those map campaigns where every time your army won, your faction would get points and stuff.

And nobody was playing Dark Eldar.

And then this guy shows up with that and just destroys everyone.

But enough survived to escape and bring word of what happened, but the Dark Angels were pretty much in control of the power plant.

We had word of an Ultramarines versus Dark Eldar Again, using fifth edition rules.

The Dark Eldar laid a trap for the Ultramarines.

But then Marnius Kalgar and his honor guard turned up and basically kicked the Dark Eldar off the board.

So that's two games, two losses for the Dark Eldar.

So they need to lick their wounds and try a new strategy, I think.

Nice.

The Exiled One, thank you so much for the chat.

Uh, "My Wrath and Glory party just got taken by the Drukhari.

No one wanted to be prisoners, so we shall be playing D&D [laughs] again.

It was good year, though." Oh, no.

A little bummed that the first example is literally my game, Wrath of Glory, the one I designed.

[laughs]

Well, you put those nasty Drukhari in there, right?

Uh, I mean, you know, there's definitely bad guys in that game.
