ARCHONĪny commander experienced in fighting the Dark Eldar knowto fearthe Archon, a vicious melee warrior who leads front-line troops into battle. Their brutality knows no loyalty and while viciously effective, a loss of unit morale will cause them to turn on their handlers with unhindered fury. Mindless and brutal, the Warp Beasts are "organized" and driven against enemy forces by their Beastmasters. Spawned from the bloody nightmares of mortals, Warp Beasts are death and pain embodied. In addition, their keen eyes and dark sorceries allow them to detect infiltrated units. Those that do quickly become expert melee combatants, and are hired into service as heavy infantry units that use crippling attacks that slow units and sap morale. They battle each other, warp beasts, and captured soldiers - and few survive their first fight. Wyches spend their entire lives perfecting the skills of gladiatorial combat. Unlike other armies with jump-assault units, the Scourge Squad carries heavy weapons into battle, allowing them to rain destruction down on opposition and flee before the enemy can muster an effective counterattack. This elite unittrains in the use of jump packs, making them highly effective shock troops. A Warrior Sybarite, who provides leadership and tactical expertise to their campaigns, can reinforce them. These forces are trained to move quickly and to strike in lightning hit-and-run raids. The Warrior Squads are the primary infantry unit of the Dark Eldar. In addition, the Haemonculus's keen eye detects infiltrating units, making him a vital addition to a commander's war effort. Viewing the mortification of the flesh as the finest of arts, the Haemonculus inflicts high morale damage against the enemy unfortunate enough to fall under his blades.

This special ability, combined with their innate cruelty and bloodlust, makes the Mandrake a terrifying addition to the Dark Eldar Forces. MANDRAKESīasic, front-line units, the Mandrakes are experts at camouflage and infiltration due to their Warp-tinged shadow skin. This allows the Dark Eldar structures to essentially build themselves, freeing the Tortured Slave to quickly begin other fortifications. Sent out into battlefields hobbled and chained, the Tortured Slaves plant Warp spire pods to start building construction. These unfortunate souls, mostly humans captured during Dark Eldar raids, are utilized as builders once their masterstire of tormenting them.
