Can someone tell me what this thing was?

Hey guys I got pwned by Dark Eldar recently and was wondering what a certain unit was:

It looked to be some sort of hero on a bike because it attacked me very swiftly and proceeded to chew up my platoon with its combat drugs, 5 attacks, and a 2+ invulnerable save.

What was that thing? It hurt like hell.

Archon + combat drugs + shadow field + reaver jetbike

The DE have a nasty HQ unit.

Thanks mate! Yeah he was one tough bugger

You need to take him out from a distance. Hydra's are our friend for doing that. He doesn't get the cover save for moving fast on the jet bike and his armor will have trouble making that saves. especially from the 2+ wounds you are doing to him

Still need to get past the Shadow Field, but basically, if they roll a 1, they die (5+ save is ignored, S7 instant kills).
