Dark Eldar are soft...

Steve,
You are bad at this game.

Sincerly,
Requiemnex


P.S. I still have your lamenters in my trunk and I have decided to hold them ransom.

[steveNspace]

I can sense the fear already...

Sounds good, though I'm wondering what the caveats are with this release. There's been only one preview, no announcements or rumors, and no definitive release schedule yet. Not to mention, what is this announcing? Is the 28th the day they're releasing the new models? The day they start preorders for them? The day that they announce when you can preorder the new models?

Also, I'm terrified of the price gouge we're about to see on this stuff.

PS Steve you are pretty bad dude. Just saying.

So what does everyone think of the new wave?

I think the venom is neat, cronos looks cooler than the talos imo although both are pretty cool. A little disappointed that the razorwings aren't out yet, but this is a good start .

[WavepooL]

I'm not a huge fan of the venom, the talos and cronos look pretty f'n sweet as do the scourges. I didn't know Sauron was a Dark Eldar....


Dark Eldar = Bolter Bait

[steveNspace]

The Cronos really outshines the Talos IMO... Venom is cool enough, Scourges are alright but there's pretty low chance of me actually using those.

And then there's this...



Mad cool

[WavepooL]

What are those?

[Tu'shan]

Supposedly, those are leaked Razorwing Fighters. They're flyers, which in game terms means Fast Skimmers. No transport capacity like a Storm Raven or Valkyrie, but lots of guns/missiles. Just as easy to blow up as a Ravager, though, so not much to worry about after the initial strike.

Overall, I like the sculpts. The Venom is pretty much what I expected, though a little wider than I was hoping. The price is right, though. The Talos/Cronos are nice, but look flimsy and difficult to transport. Typical DE there. The Scourges are excellent sculpts, but are instant broken bits based on those giant tipsy wings and skinny girl legs. Also, the box set is annoying because it only includes one of each heavy weapon choice; this is a problem because the only reason you really want them is for Heat Lances. Meh.

[WavepooL]

Cool, after seeing the models you defiantly did a good job on your venom conversion

[Tu'shan]

Thanks man. I am psyched about this release, since it means there's nothing stopping folks from working out some DE armies. Though I'm actually back to a side project atm . . .

[Requiemnex]

New models look good. Not sure if I like the change in the talos.. the venom looks REALLY simaler to derrick's conversion and thus I commend him on that

[Tu'shan]

I like their Venoms better but I'll probably keep using mine. Hopefully they'll blend well. I like the Talos/Cronos sculpt, but that has to be just about the flimsiest most awkward model I've ever seen. I cringe at the thought of trying to transport three of the things.

Bad news for all dark elf players. To save the world from Rapture, gamesworkshop destroyed all new dark eldar models and they can anticipate a new release of sometime in 2023. Thank you that is all.
