Firstly, Please watch your launge.

Secondly, is there actully a point to this thread? Or a reason why I shouldn't lock it as spam and flame?

And Thirdly, before you two start a lynching mob and set off for THQ HQ perhaps we could actully save this topic and turn it into a civilised dissucsion. Think you can do that?

From a games mechanic's point of view DE would play too much like Eldar in DoW. If you've taken the time to notice each race in DoW have they're own advantages and disadvantages and none of them are too similar. All the races in DoW have been simplified and so as I said CWE and DE would seem to similar.

Dark Eldar wouldn't fit well into the campaign. As it is each race has its own reason for being there, but are all interconnected in some way. DE similply wouldn't fit well into the story line.

Why would GW bother putting DE in game? Yes they are planning on revamping us, but that is some way off. If we were put in DoW that would either stick us in the same rut for even longer with GW not wanting to alter something that the public has seen. Or it could of had the oppisite effect and forced them to update us for the game. And I know from exerince that would either mean they would of rushed our redo, I'm prepeared to wait for some decent stuff, and GW simply don't want to put the effort into DE that them being in DoW would demand.

Yes it is a shame that DE arn't in DoW, but did we realy expect anything diffrent? I sure didn't and so wasn't disapointed and played the game with what I was given and throughly enjoyed it. If you realy feel hard done by do what I've done; open the army editor and put Eldar in your kabal's colour scheme and name. It actully works quite well and you can develop tactics that would fit DE.

And as a final note. If you search around the web there is a development team working on a Mod for DoW which would add DE as a race.

jeez no'ki, take a chill pill man. anyway, it is not an insult exactly that we are not in DOW but it is the prospect of the thing. If you don't like this thread, think of it as spam and flame, don't post on it.

p.s. the angry mob has already left for THQ

[Archon Faraith]

yes but unfortunatley Blacksoul an admin mods job is to prevent spam and flaming so he must read them. But atleast he is warning you that its going to end up as a flame war and giving you a chance to keep it good.

Oh and please Rakarth, keep the net speak for msn please. We don't want to sound like Orks.

[Archon Tireq]

"Oh and please Rakarth, keep the net speak for msn please. We don't want to sound like Orks."

good idea. i will get an ork WAAAGH! to join the angry mob, and yes faraith, i understand that the admin must read these posts to prevent spamming and flaming, but he did not need to post on a spam thread. he could delete it easily

[Archon Faraith]

But the friendly as sociable chap that he is, he generally explains why, to help us all in future avoid such problems.

[Archon Tireq]

*this is a bit off topic here, but what the hel l is a chap?*

look at his long post. that is not an explanation, or at least i don't think so. if we were face to face when he said that, i would run away and hide under the table for fear of getting punched in the face.

[Archon No'ki]

Ok, firstly sorry if it seemed that I was angry. I wasn't, and you'd realy know it if I was. After all you've still got positive karma

I had hopped that the rest of my post had shown that I'm willing to make DE in DoW a topic for sensible discussion. And I still am, if you are as well, as I think it could be an intresting topic. However what I saw before my post (and sadly consequently) was just people getting angry and swearing about somthing. Please remember that even the crazy people who put their time into making games are people to. If the kind of launge that was used ealier and the "burn in hell" comments had been directed at a member of this comminty then a) I would of been upset as I would of thought our members more considerate than that and b) would of been forced to take more action other than asking you to watch your launge.

And now back onto "topic". Yes I agree it would be great if Dark Eldar were included in a game such as DoW. But as we all know we arn't exactly GW favourite child now are we? And so the likely hood of us being included in a game was never that high, and certainly not enough for "burn in hell" comments because we weren't included. Remember there are a lot more races in 40k than were included in DoW, some of which could of held out alot more hope than us about being included in the game.

Again, sorry if I seemed angry and I hope we can make this a decent topic to talk about.

[Archon Tireq]

yeah, i noticed that i still had my karma . but the other race that are not included, do you think that they are having a similar argument on their forums? dunno. what comments did you ignore, and why, i want to know for next time, and what is a chap? you didn;t tell me!
