Tactically speaking am not had much luck with Highborns Mounted either on a Manicore nor a Dragon. They are either Shot down or the enemy decides to ignore them.
So i Have decided on a different approach, this Army is designed to play against most armies and is quite Heavy on the Magic side.

Sorceress - level 2, Dispel Scroll, Tomb of Furion -170

Yeh a good list. Id drop the executioners for some Cold One Knights though. You dont need rxbows on the chariots and id consider the banner of nagarthe a bit much. Hydra Banner would be better. Put him on a Cold One if you want the knights or with the execur=tioners if you ewant to keep them.

I will drop both the Repeater crossbow armed warriors and see if i can get a unit of Cold one knights for them. The banner is to make sure my units don't run considering everytime i go against any army with the lore of Heavens i always seem to be hit with it and over half the time my units all run away.
Well i played against the Beastmen and got a Massacre against them using this Army with the exception of the Crossbow armed Warriors they were replaced with 6 Cold one riders. The chariots also losted their crossbows.
Yes, I love this list that exploits the strengths of the Dark Elves: speed, shooting and magic. With your Corsairs and Dark Riders, it must be a gang of pirates and raiders that launches deadly lightning-attacks. You should write fluff about that list and create names for your characters and units while you're at it.
