I played a game against my Brother, he was using the Chaos Mortals list in White dwarf issue 342(the Mordor one). I didn't do that well, infact I lost pretty badly, I think the problem was I couldn't break the chaos knights 0+ armour save, my conclusion is that I need more hammer units(units to smash into the enemy line, or flank and kill it), all I have right now are my shade with great weapons. So next game I will include a War Hydra, I will also give my assassin Rune of Khaine(+D3 attacks) instead of rending stars.
Until next time

Yet another Update
Two weeks since I have got my battalion and done my last post and I have assembled: my Cold One Knight command, the two that I will be using for my chariot, 10 corsairs and I have split my warrior unit into two and I have completed one 15 strong unit. The other 10 corsairs that I got in my battalion will be used with some glade rider units that I will be getting soon to make a unit of cool looking Dark Riders
I was looking through Druchii.net (dark elf forum) and I saw these pictures, they are cheaper tahtn the normal Dark Riders and I think they look better as well!

Battalion
Hooray! Today I got my Dark elf battalion!
I have provided a few pictures of the models that I have assembled
Dark Elf Cold one Knight Dreadknight (champion) without a shield
Dark elf Corsair
Again, sorry for the bad pictures
Now with the battalion I can have a possible 46 warrior, 20 corairs, 5 cold one knights, a chariot and three characters. See I told you it would grow soon.
But unfortunatly I am not going to assemble all the models straight out like they are, so it is unlikely that I will have that many...in the meantime

Picture updates
Ok, time for more Picture
Snowy, with my Cold one's paint scheme
It is done with a shadow grey basecoat, with the scales being space wolves grey with a skull white highlight. The claws and teeth are done skull white to tie in with the rest of the model and I used blood red on the tongue for contrast. I will also be using this colour scheme for my sea dragon cloaks and my hydra(if I get one).
Another picture of my spearmen

Sorry about the bad picture, I will have a better one up soon.
What do you think, comments, criticism welcome!
Next time(hopefully), better pictures and my Cold One's colour scheme(on snowy, an old cold one)

ooooooh, fluffy
Ok, now for my army's fluff.
For people who don't know, fluff is the background/story behind your army and it can dictate what you include in it. Some people like to create fluff for their army and some people don't. I am one of those people who like to create fluff for my army.
My Dark Elf Dreadlord (lord level character) is called Kasumi, Dreadlord Kasumi.
Kasumi's army is a garrison army that guards the Blackspine mountains (dark inhospitable mountains south of Naggaroth) from enemy invasions(mainly lizardmen) even though it is very unlikely that there is going to be an invasion along that root it still has to be patrolled.
Because my army has to navigate through mountains I am going to have small units, 15 max. First I will start with Shades, Shades live in the Blackspine mountains making them the perfect choice for my army, because of this I am going to field 2 units of them. My mainstay will be 2 units of spearmen, it will also have harpies (kept in cages and released to track down enemies) and dark riders for scouts. It will have a cold one chariot for a baggage train and that will all be backed up by some firepower(2 reaper bolt throwers, 10 crossbowman and 2 sorceresses). Last but not least it will have the ever handy assassin(in a spearmen or shade unit).
Well that's a general idea of my fluff!(while also accidentally giving away my whole army)
Until next time!

Paint Scheme
Now, for the general paint scheme of my army.
I have chosen the standard 'invasion force paint scheme'(you know, the purple on) as my paint scheme except for the following exceptions, Instead of having liche purple as the cloth colour I will have midnight blue(yes I know it's discontinued but I have 2 and a half pots of it), I will use gold trimming on the chain mail and to pick out the detail on the armour, I will give the armour a coat of Badab Black to make the armour darker and finally, My shields will be different to the normal warrior ones (I don't like any of the icons that you can put on them).
Hopefully I will have some pictures up soon.
Well, that's all for this week, until next week where I talk about the fluff! dun dun dun!
