Goatboy’s Grimdark Armylist – Drukhari ‘Spectacle of Spite’ Tourney Winner
Goatboy here with an 40K Drukhari Spectacle of Spite army list that won the 2026 Texas Open this past weekend.
This Drukhari armylist was played by a friend of mine who I met many years ago at BAO in a finals game while wearing hot pink robes they bought from a local Wal-mart. It was a wild time and Christian instantly locked into my mind as a decent dude, a great player, and a fun opponent – even when I lost by rolling a 1 when a Grey Hunter walked over a broken Rhino. Let’s check out his Drukhari list that seems to be doing very well lately.
The current rough list for the Drukhari is a Spectacle of Spite list utilizing their Wych friend’s rampant drug use. Oh and using Hellions and their insanely hard hitting ability. This list will go fast, bring the pain, and just wreck you in the blink of an eye. It builds upon the idea of a Glass Cannon that shoots such a big cannon ball of death into your face, that you can’t respond before your army is crippled.

Drukhari ‘Spectacle of Spite’ Tactics
This armylist is such an efficient Drukhari build with each MSU murder machine built to move fast, punch up, and hurt your poor little minis so fast. I expect the Hellions to get hit by some point nerfs in the future as they feel a bit rough right now. I think the biggest issue is just finding those models right now as they have been online only and out of stock for a while. It is a rough fast list that can utilize some Drug picks to quickly hurt the enemy and then do the random roll 2 to create a crazy combo of nonsense. All of the drug options are good between more attacks, faster speed, and better strength.
The basics for this list is that it moves fast and hits hard. It hits so hard that you might not have much to counter bunch back. It also has a ton of long range damage in the Scourges to make sure anything “tough” won’t live long. I just love that it is a Wych army which is cool to see kicking butt out there in late 10th Edition. BRAVO!
No one truly leaves the Dark City…
