What are the average points used to play a fantasy game? I am trying to create a list for my Dark Elves but wanted a point total to shoot for. Then i know what units I will try and buy and paint first. Also so I can determine if what I want to paint and play will actually work or if it will be too much to cram in a list.
In 40k Alot of games are 1500 points or 2000. I think 1750 is the tourament point cost. I heard that Fantasy games run bigger points. The rule book has rules for like up to 4000 points!

Pick up games at Boldo's are usually 2250 pts, the standard indy tournament size.
That said, GW tourney sizes are 2000.
Most of the regular players have different sized lists made up, though and appy to play any size game, really. Note that the game doesnt play all that great under 1000. Aim for 1000 at least.

So at 2250, I could have up to 4 special characters, one of which could be a Lord. I need 3+ core units, I could have up to 4 Special units and 2 Rares? Am i thinking right?

Yes that is correct if you mean special characters are 3 hero choices and one lord.
