Jess, Phil & Adam talk about the new Dark Eldar background. (video)

  1. Interesting and bizarre background. I would have liked to hear more about the aristocrats dealing with their new situation, but I guess that's what the codex will be for!

    I can't wait to start this army!

  2. The countdown has begun and all the freaks and wierdos are camping out in their local GW (me included!) I haven't been this excited about a codex since forever!

  3. They have the rest of the round table conversation up at Games Workshop astronomicon section.

  4. Another 2 parts now and they're making the Dark Eldar sound cooler than ever.

  5. I can confirm that the background section of the new Codex: Dark Eldar is in fact very cool. The text is full of nice little tidbits to fuel the imagination. Also, it actually makes a lot of sense (albeit in a very weird, twisted sort of way, as befits the horror that is the Dark Eldar).

    The army list and wargear section is extensive, and looks like I have to read through it a few times more to actually be able to form an opinion, but it looks like this Codex enables one to create a wide variety of different armies, many of which are highly competitive, and most of which would most likely be fun to play, and are guaranteed to startle a few opponents.

  6. Alot of space marines players are gearing up to fight the new dark eldar...I cant wait to start tearing them apart and showing the world that space marines aren't the "end all be all" army to play.

    This should be fun =)

  7. My only problem with this release is that i will lose a lot of teh 'suprise' factor that i had before as pretty much NO ONE knew how dark eldar played so i could walk my hq right upto them and they wouldnt be expecting him to wound on 4+ ignore AS and have a 2+ invunlerable

  8. A lot like Duke Nukem Forever, I always thought that this would never come about.

  12. Went a match against Imperial Guard yesterday. It was awesome :D I won with a Wipe Out, all I lost was a unit of reavers and a raider :)

    And all I have to say is... "Cronos Parasite Engine" is f*ing awesome xD
