The Top 5 Competitive Drukhari Datasheets In 10th Edition?! | Warhammer 40k

[@TheSixMachine]

What are you top 5 Drukhari Units in 10th Edition?

[@samuelparkinson5407]

Before watching the whole video... from my experience; Talos, Ravager, Mandrakes, Kabalites and Beastmaster

[@TheMasterFishboy]

In my experience: scourge, ravager, cronos, mandrakes and kabalites in transports

[@asimon7100]

My picks would be Talos, Scourges, Mandrakes, Beastpacks and probably Kabalites, I think they are really good in a Venom I think overall the Archon is a bait because the abilities don't work while embarked in a transport... and you can only have it join Kabalites which isn't too bad but it's a melee character joining a shooting unit that wants to be in transports :( I think as character options Skari takes Urien or Beastpacks. I agree with that choice and I tend to pick them over my Archon in most of my games I am very disapointed with Incubi and wytch cult units being borderline unplayble. Specifically I am worried that in order to make Incubi more competitive gw is going to cut their points with the data slate in a few days. It might make them viable again but I like them as an elite unit and they just don't feel like one at the moment. Also, I don't understand why Archons can't join them. It would already make them a lot better in my opinion with rerolls to wound. Overall I think that to get back the identity that Drukhari had and that a lot of people who played them (including myself) enjoyed, they don't need point cuts, they need better detachment rules and melee units need to be helped out on their profiles. Honestly, I'd rather pay 120 points for 5 incubi that actually pose a serious threat and that feel elite rather than 140 points for 10 of them as they are right now (which I am afraid is the direction gw are taking and we will see soon). I mean... 10 of them average around 2 dead terminators in a round of combat with a pain token so yeah...

I like to think I’m contributing to the poor performance in my own way haha. I’m here having just discovered your channel :) I’m on the hunt for Drukhari tips!! Looking forward to the next dataslate.

Well, i don´t know if you´ve tried these in a tournament, because you are missing couple of units, that are FAR superior than the Wracks/Archon at least. Mandrakes. Every list start with 3*5 Mandrakes. They score the points. Second is 3*2 Talos, you were correct, these guys are awesome. Forget the Archon and get Urien to heal the Talos and he´s actually quite good in melee and comes back once in a game with 2+, with 4++/4+++. Kabalite Warriors in Venoms is a way better choice than Wracks, cos they combat squad and have sticky objectives with better fire power. I have 3'Venoms, that are filled with the better shooting 5 KB´s and the three units are in reserves and walking in for the secondaries. Ravagers are not played that often anymore, its the Beastmaster and his pets. For me (tried now in two tournaments within a month). Lelith is also a beast, but she needs her extra 10 wounds with her :). The top 5 i use are 1. Talos 2. Mandrakes 3. Venoms 4. Kabalites 5. Scourges...bubblin under, Urien and Lelith.

[@angel-in-metatrone]

I managed to win most if my games now, the trick is to identify the most important unit on your opponent army. And full focus every single gun you can on that one T1 (or 2 if it remain hide, then tou use T1 to position, and if you fail, you loose or use Gambit). Then you use mobility to make the remaining running around like headless chickens ... Wracks and Talos/Cronos/Grotesques can be use to fit on the hole that main enenmy unit left 99% its middle. Keep your units on Raider/Venom as long as you can and use/abuse of firing decks.

[@julientabulazero103]

You are missing the star of the show. Kabalite Warriors in a Venom. Split the squad in two, put all the heavy weapon in the Venom. You have a squad of 5 Kabalite for objective flipping with their sticky objective rule and a squad of 5 heavy/special weapon kabalite warriors that will hop-in/hop-out of the Venom. Use terrain wisely and make it so that the warriors can disappear back into the Venom behing obscuring cover.

[@J4MM1E2]

Obviously, there are a lot of issues with the drukhari at the moment. Weak melee, poor army and detachment rules, but the loss of some of there exceptional mobility feels the most bad. The change to fly and the fact that many other factions have had mobility creep feels very unflavourful. In what universe should a venom only have 2 inches more movement than a rhino??

[@erraticuk]

Isnt Skari solely responsible for 7 or 8% of the Drukari winrate. Without him it drops into the 30+% win bracket. That includes building a army around the same max number of core units in every army list.

[@erraticuk]

This army only has 19 core units, of which the flyers are the newest from 5th Ed 2015. More than a few units you cant buy at all. Wyches, Hellions, Incubi and Drazhar are not really worth taking. On the bright side they are probably the cheapest army to collect.

[@almightytallestred]

The Drukhari doing badly? Glad to see nothing has changed since 3rd edition ^^ can't recall ever winning a game with them back then. But I just got a soft spot for the spikey sickos.

[@bigfluff73]

The haemonculus gives the wracks a 4+ fnp and there's a strat for -1 to wound them

[@TheSixMachine]

Yeah the Haemonculus is defnitely a great shout for a Unit of Wracks, I wanted to put him on the list alongside the Archon but I just thought I'd avoid putting 2 HQ options! I'd say it's worth bringing 1 of each for the extra Pain Token from the Detachment rule as well, it's just a shame the Succubus is a bit meh in my opinion! But Wracks & Haemonculus and Kabalites & Archon can both work for sure!
