Default dark elf rumors

basically, a bunch of stuff i've gleaned from druchii.net & from other dark elf fanatics at HQ in oakville;

- the rumored army-wide special rule will be hatred. however, it's also rumored that against dark elves, this will become eternal hatred AND charging dark elf units will also receive +1A!

- the lords/heroes section is pretty much as is, the main rumor pointing to the beastmater being dropped as he's not really utalised.
instead, he's rumored to be replaced by a witch elf hag!

- dark magic is said to really be changing... the dark elves are also likely losing their +1 to-cast bonus. overall, their magic is thought to become 100% focused on maiming and killing so we could lose supportive spells like word of pain...

- executioners are losing killing blow. instead they'll get a new kind of armour piercing rule to give them some extra bite against heavy cavalry and such.

- cold ones may be getting a rule which stops them from going stupid all the time.

- beastmaster is rumored to become an upgrade for a manticore or hydra. the manticore could also become a rare choice. rummors also hint at the druchii getting a new monster as a rare choice!

- model-wise there's rummors for plastic coldone knights, dark riders & corsairs. this seems pretty likely as each army is supposed to have all plastic core choices + 1 or 2 plastic non-core units...
also there's alot of hinting at a plastic box for dark elf nobles!

cheers!

ooo a new monster you say?
I currently have a long-term plan to utilise the 5 heads from the Hydra as heads of a team of alien bounty hunters for use in Inquisitor - but like i say, its still just a concept at the moment and If they were to perhaps redo the Hyrda, I may well be better off just waiting a bit longer.

witch elves will keep their poisoned attacks for sure... assassins IIRC are slated to get poison too.
it definately won't be across the entire army however!

cheers!
