Arhaelthrai [Shadowdoom]

Arhaelthrai [Shadowdoom]

Army Name: Arhaelthrai [Shadowdoom]

General: Do'riili Bariiliia

Philosophy: Fast Strikes and pincer movements. the centre holds while Dark riders attack flanks.

Quotes: "Khaine is pleased with my service brother, I care little for your opinion. The Old world is my playground. Our family lands in Naggaroth are yours."

Background: Do'riili is the lord in charge of Bariiliia forces in the Old World. It was Do'riili's idea to create a permanent outpost for the Bariiliia to lessen the need of the Black Arks to supply raids. This lessen the need for Corsairs to be hired for such raids. Shipments could be made directly and raids could be planed with scouting from Shades during the early spring. Castle Bariiliia in the Old World. The Castle lays on a defendable hilltop near a cove from the Sea of Claws. Once a bandit hold, Do'riili enslave its former inhabitants after a lightning raid seven years ago. A palisade has been erected around the bottom of the hill and further fortification have been built largely of timber because of the amount of time that the force is either raiding or otherwise occupied. It is within Do'riili's plans to make this a permanent hold for the Durchii as he does not wish to return to Naggaroth. As of yet his father doesn't support this plan thus has prevented Do'riili using any slaves to do the work. Currently Do'riili awaits the coming of his elder brother with this years supplies and reinforcements. During the winter much of the Hired army and Bariiliia return to Naggaroth. Do'riili awaits there return before he can go off to battle like a true warrior of the Durchii. There is a Temple to Khaine in the grounds where about 50 Witch elves serve Khaine. Do'riili is very supportive of Khaine and wanted to make sure that he watches over Bariiliia's forces. Clearly Do'riili's success is at least partly blessings from Khaine.

General opinions of:

The Empire: "Fools who cannot protect themselves. While their handguns are a threat, they are often not position very well. Further their politics of their realms allows use to raid with little resistance."

Brettonia: "Idealistic fool, how many the Priestess of Khaine have claimed because of their unwillingness to kill women I cannot count. Their weakness amuses me greatly."

High Elves: "Traitors and fools, they shall be slain and their useless bodies left for the crows and wolves."

Druchii: "I cannot speak ill of my people, unless you want to talk about my foolish brother."

Wood Elves: "Tree hugging bratlings, barely worth my sword. They should thank their gods that they live so far inland."

Dwarves: "Tough but short warriors, they rather try kill you with their bare hands than submit to slavery. They have a group of red haired warriors that fight like demons. Worth respecting."

Lizardmen: "Too much like my brother, they are cold and unfeeling, also they are not fond of the cold and make poor slaves."

Vampire Counts: "The undead are weak, crush them and all you have to fight is the Vampires, who often value their unlives too much to stay and fight."

Chaos: "On the whole weakminded fools lead by forces beyond thier knowledge, still they die as easy as any one. They know not fear, just kill them and be done with it. They are not worth making slaves of anyway.

Orcs and Goblins: "Fodder and distractions, it pretty easy to get them to do what you want. If you have to fight them, they are their own worse enemy. Pick out their leaders and they shall fall apart."

Tome Kings: "More undead, I have heard of these being but they don't seem like they are any hard to beat then the undead up here."

Beastmen: "More Chaos spawn, worth nothing as slaves, ugly and misshapen. Kill them all and burn the bodies."

Skaven: "Kill them, burn the bodies and Pray to Khaine"

Giants: "Bigger they are they harder they fall! Try to not be on the wrong side when they fall."

Orges: "Big and dumb, sometimes worth enslaving but they are very tough fight. They can shrug off Crossbow bolts and hit like a ton of stone. Aim the your bolt throwers and they die well."

Cult of Pleasure: "Politics of the weak, let my brother deal with these fools."

Here you will find my Dark Elf Army Units as well as some common lists I use or have at least developed. The name of my Army is Arhaelthrai [Shadowdoom]. It attacks at night or during the dark over cast days, hence its name. I still painting my force so it may take some time for the units pictures to appear. The Army Book and models are adding much to my forces. I hope to showcase them soon.
