Default Dark Elves

Okay guys, I have one piece of news about the Dark Elves, it hasn't been confirmed but is currently being play tested. The elves all seem to have a racial special rule now and Dark Elves are getting Eternal Hatred.

It makes sense fluff wise and it will just kick ass.

It is a very promising rule. I can't wait to see the new book. The High Elves one kicks ass and Dark Elves are much cooler.

Then 40K would need the hatred rule but Dark Eldar do need something special. They really need updated.

Also Dark Elves will be the next army to be released, probably in February or March.

yep! vamp counts come out in march/april. (mainly march though - IIRC, we have 1 april vamp count release due to how february feths up everything as it's not a proper month!)

dark elves might be very late next year... or else they'll be early '09. the thing is, we don't want to release 2 elf armies within the same year as it would be seen as 'too many elves'.
still, the dark elves are really getting some good stuff such as the rummored 'eternal hatred' across the entire army!

cheers!

any sightings on models yet?

is it just me or when GW stick Dark as a prefix to an existing elfen-type race, it means they feel they must produce inferior quality models for the most part?

no sightings yet... the main problem with 'dark' named model ranges is gary morley. name a model you don't like one bit and it's very likely gary morley scultped it!

from the inside rummor mill though;
- we could be seeing a new cut for the dark elf warrior sprue (wouldn't count on it though seeing as the high elves didn't get a re-cut of theirs)
- plastic corsairs
- plastic dark riders
- plastic coldone knights (and we've already seen the shots from games day UK of the new plastic coldone!)
- plastic witch elves
- plastic reaper bolt thrower.

basically, all the core units whould be coming out in plastic, along with a couple of the more popular special & rare choices... (ie: bolt thrower is almost a definant for becoming plastic just like those silly high elf ones!)

cheers!
