Hi there, long time 40k player, just starting out with DE and looking for some help. I actually took a break from the game for a while having sold my old Chaos army and am currently building a DE army to replace it. Having done some cursory reading on the net it looks like trueborn and warrior venoms are the go-to elites and troops respectively, but I wanted to play a CC army and was therefore wondering what success people have had with wracks+haemys.
On paper, wracks with an acothyst and haemy with power weapons or agonizers seem like a relatively cheap and very adaptable unit that can kill anything from MC's to close combat tooled MEq as long as they get the charge. Again, on paper, they appear a better deal as an offensive unit than wyches due to their poisoned weapons and the FC that they gain from having a haemy attached which helps defeat the curse of S3 that all DE suffer from. Am I wrong?
In short, how effective is a CC army with wracks at its base and would one based on wyches work better, or should I abandon the idea wholesale?
Thanks for any help anyone can give.
