This drawing is awesome. Is there any chance that you have a poster of this? This would look great in my room. The contrast in colors and shading makes this a great piece of art.

If I understand the Codex right the Incubi is the only Dark Eldar whit a sense of honour?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Actually, like most Dark Eldar, they despise fair fights and only want to kill their opponents. They only have a sense of honor amongst themselves and truly worthy opponents.

The people that hires them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They are not usually hired. Usually they are asked to join a planetary raid, but are not paid. All they require is the promise of a kill.

No, Archon´s buy their services as bodyguards.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No. Archons commonly employ Sslyth as bodyguards. Incubi are never deployed as bodyguards; for their ability to cut through swaths of enemies makes them invaluable in an assualt. Their armor makes them ideal for charging the enemy head on. Though that armor could be doubled as an effect shield for an archon, Archons prefer Sslyth for their durability, combat skill, and their loyalty. Incubi are combat juggernauts in the Dark Eldar mind set, not bodyguards.

"Incubi are the greatest pure warriors of Dark Eldar society, serving as mercenaries who live only to fight and kill. Due to the time-honored tradition of promotion through assassination that defines Dark Eldar society, the services of Incubi as bodyguards is highly sought after. Incubi are by their nature completely neutral in matters of a Kabal 's hierarchy. They follow the code of their contract zealously, and are elite warriors, all of which make them perfect bodyguards. Few Archons ever hesitate to invest their raiding spoils into securing the exclusive assistance of an Hierarch and his shrine of Incubi, and any subordinate who wishes to attempt to take the place of the Archon must first find some loophole or circumstance that will make such a contract void, lest he wishes to face the Incubi in combat."
They're often hired mercenaries and bodyguards

Have you read the Codex?

I proudly own the codex and play the army.

Then you should know that the Codex states that in lore Incubi are often found as bodyguards to dose that can afford them as they are the only Dark Eldar that would be the last to turn on their Master, some times fighting to the death to defend their Master.

That's inaccurate. Incubi are Dark Eldar. All Dark Eldar would attempt to kill an archon to gain his status and power. Incubi are no different. The reason Sslyth are used more commonly is the fact that they incredible idiotic and fight to the bitter end for an archon. Incubi would a dire threat to an archon if they turned on him in the middle of battle. Though I can personally attest to an archon's prowess in battle his greatest weakness is numbers. Incubi come in numbers as opposed to Sslyth. It's more of a matter of what can an archon kill more easily if it turned on him. Numerous Skilled and armored incubi or a few powerful Sslyth?

Dude, your wrong.
Firstly: If a Incubi temple turned on its patron they would never be hired by anyone ever again.
Secondly: Incubi are not part of the Kabal, they would not gain anything or be able to clam the seat of power as the rest of the Kabal that is ether loyal to the Archon or not would do everything to kill them. This is the same reason why Sslyth are better then Kabalits and Wyches, because they are not a part of the Kabal they make for better bodyguards. Also, the codex dose not specific why but the Sslyth only have 3 Leadership.
Thirdly: Incubi have a strict honour code about their contracts.

Well I'll be damned. Still Incubi are not intended to be bodyguards, can we agree on that much?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
On the tabletop Wyches and Blood Brides where by far better in 5th but now in 6th Incubi and Grots are better at taking damage for the Archon, but Blood Brides can still be useful if the target is already tied down. But we have Eldar as Battle Brothers now so you could use something from their codes as his retinue as well, if I did not lose Dance of Death I would put him with Harlequins.
It really comes down to your play style, a cost way to do it is to put him with Incubi or Grots and a Heamonculi.

Why have anyone accompany an archon if you just put him a raider and give a webway portal? It's good idea in my book and has won me a few games. It's like a Dark Eldar Blitzkrieg. Only difference is a lot more close combat.
