For those of you who do not frequent the UK GW site they have just implemented they're new look. The overall site is, meh. But thats not the point. I visted the Dark Eldar section and found some quite nice pieces of new artwork, along with instructions to build a "meh" tower aswell. So yet more proof that we're not destined to go the way of the Squats (even if that does mean we have to share a Codex with craftworlders, but more news on that later on.) For now lets just be happy for new art. (Oh and if the pics dont work just head to: uk.games-workshop.com/darkeldar/ )

God thats great. Theres a bit more information there now as well (although not that much) It's nice to see that its been done up, means we might get a new codex some time in the near future as well ;D

Just another little something I found while browsing the new site. Technically its 'nid artwork, but those poor unfortunates in the middle sure look like GWs new look for Dark Eldar.

i think you'll find the pic depicts all it takes is just 2 DE warriors to kick the bugs ass, well thats what i see when i look at that pic, but might just be wishful thinking

You just have to look at the 'nid pic as a historical source. It's not so much what the picture shows, but what I doesn't. What the picture doesn't show is that those two Warriors are bait. They've been used to lure the bugs out of their hidding places so the rest of the Kabal can sweep in and drag the bugs back to the Arena.

Yeah thats not a bad idea. Has anyone here played Bauldurs gate II? Theres a race in that called the Drow thats how I imagine DE sould be. All evil looking armour, not spikey like Chaos but with enough barbed edges to be dangerous and the skin should be much darker, almost greyish. and lots and lots of evil curved weapons everwhere ;D

ive played it. You can be a drow but their are drows and they are cool if rather annoying to keep around always making your parties rep lower. They are kinda dark eldarish though.

thats a good one. my friend and i are always comparing the talos and the wraithlord. by the way, who else thinks that the wraithlord is underpriced? (in points by the way)

Yeah the WL is a bit under prised, but not by much mind you. My thinking on it is its great, but the talos (with my rolling) has proven more reliable and better suited for killing all sorts of stuff. (6 attacks for 3 turns = 3 dead 5 man squads of SM with Powerfists).
Not only that the talos and the WL are a very good match vs each other, but only because a Tolos can get 7 attacks on a charge, and still needs 5+ to wound, while its 2+ to wound for the WL. There are a few things that need to be worked out but they are really cool either way. (Btw read the article it sheads some light on eldar, and gives a small time table on the "new" codex.
