45 Games with Dark Eldar

A Klaive? Is that a sculpting tool? A Klavex? A brand of tissue, surely. The Punisher sounded like a dangerous weapon, but the new names are jokes. Then again, by the look of things you might as well rename the Incubi Master the 'Exarch,' and call his new abilities 'Exarch Powers.' What next, a Phoenix Lord? Ah, wait...

[Melissia]

Just because you're ignorant of the term doesn't mean it isn't one.

Klaive is an alternate spelling of Glaive, depending on which language you use it can mean different things. A sword on a stick as is the traditional interpretation of Glaive, or a large, triangular sword/knife such as [url=http://farm1.static.flickr.com/173/389135627_171141f7cd.jpg]this[/url], and a few other meanings with similar weapons (usually a sword or a polearm).

[Master Bryss]

I did grasp that it would have a connection to glaives, however I don't see the new Incubi blades are particularly triangular. Hmm, in which case I shall call the new Incubi weapons Punishers, and the old Incubi weapons (which are actually polearms) Klaives.

[DarkLink]

Glaives aren't necessarily triangular. As Melissia said, the definition is fairly broad.

@buffo: this is a great idea, though I would like to see you throw in a "non-themed" list. Possibly something you didn't write yourself... You know, the typical internet power gaming list. The only reason I would Ike to see it in your analysis is to show everyone that Internet lists aren't the be all of list building and that a well thought out themed list can dominate. Perhaps throw in 5 games with the "internets omg pohwer list." consider it.

I'd offer to write one of those intrazweb lists, but to be perfectly honest, his lists are not all that dissimilar to my own.

This is a wonderful idea!

People give me a list to play, maybe because they are thinking of the same thing, and I play test it for them.

First match posted up.

I have played 5 total, and I will be updating the other 4 matches soon.

Your a gentleman and a scholar Buffo.

Great batrep and extra points for keeping on the gameface and not tabling the noob when you had him mid-game.

Looking forward to seeing this series evolve and when you really get your DE sealegs, PM me. Key batreps like these are too good to not share with the readers on the BoLS frontpage.

Nice batrep, Buffo!

1) Love the visuals--reminds me of old-school WD when the mag was worth reading.

2) Way to walk the walk after talking--Game sounded like it was a lot more fun at the end that it could've been if you just tabled him.

3) That kinda massed poison fire is officially scary. It might just keep people playing mech if only to avoid being on the receiving end...
