Terrahawk Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Kill the alien! WE WILL KILL! I can't wait to test out my hand flamers and Baal Predators on some black leather clad eldar.

Emperors Immortals Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 WOOOOOOOOOOO i say bring it on!! Its about time that DE got a little love - there honestly some of the most commited and forgotten fans out there (apart from the squats - what ever they may be). And frankly id love to see more xeno armies out there, im kinda tired of fighting fellow Astartes. p.s; figures - the one white dwarf i pass up in the newsagent has news about DE - d'oh!

heretic??ME?? Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Ok first of all its been along time since I've even played a DE army, literally 3rd edition days. They need the update and I for one welcome it. Another new puzzle for the marines to tackle. Oh and since I never jumped on the melta spam bandwagon and prefer the way of the flamer, I think I can easily pick out the right choices to comabt anything they throw at my armour or PA....

Whitefireinferno Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 To be honest It may damage MECH armies a bit but for Mech to go the way of the Squats It is those Greyskinned Tau that will do it with a Update. But Really most people that will jump ship for a new codex will be completly useless with DE unless they used to play DE and when Bolt pistols will cause armour ignoring saves who really is going to worry Not I or My Flesh Tearers for with Asscan shells and the bite of Chain Axes and swords the fighting shall be Great Brothers Pur faith in you Weapons of war and their Machine Spirits will serve you well for the Children of Sanguinius will come out on top.

Brother Nihm Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Yay for another alpha strike army that crumbles under weight of fire!

Kunanaki Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Personally, I love Mech. I love AV 13 Spam. I love it because showing people why it's not efficient makes me smile. Hitting from the Flanks, rushing in and blocking off LOS with useless vehicles. People forget we are not eldar. However, DE will have very little bearing on how we play our games. Everybody gets comfortable into an army, and this will merely be another metagame to fight against. Customizing lists to defeat one thing means older things can resurface and really hit us hard.

Agreed. I see Dark Eldar getting slightly more expensive (no more 10 point dark lances I reckon), some things becoming more fragile (wyches getting 5+ invun to keep them in line with the Harlequins), a few new units, and rules that don't confuse the hell out of everyone and their mothers. Also, I see the 2+ invunerable save going away. If theres one thing in the army that currently ticks me off more than anything is that... 1 HQ can easily down full squads solo with their str 6 power weapons and 2+ invun saves and 5 or so attacks :devil: If anything Dark Eldar will get rebalanced. I highly doubt, however, they're going to be "broken" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211285-the-end-is-near-for-mech-ba/page/2/#findComment-2515677 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK BLΠFLY Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I heard Phill Kelly wrote the codex. If that is true then I'm sure it will affect how we play but that doesn't mean that mech is dead. Heck Dark eldar have the most fragile fleet in the game. 0b :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211285-the-end-is-near-for-mech-ba/page/2/#findComment-2515749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nathan Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 that 2 ++ that disapears when dosent look that bad beside all the 3++ invs that marines now have wth stormsheild. As for the wynches being like harliees... why? you do know dark eldar also will be getting harlies? the laughing god makes no distinction between the 2 eldar cults... Wynches wil be their own thing and i dought a 5+inv as thats deamon terratory and will be useless when deamonhunters get their inv ignoring weaponry( another thing about that 2++inv, auto fails...) And then necrons with their warscythes... yea im hoping to see a reducton in inv models soon (poor legion of the dammed though...) Whynches will likely be scary because of hih initive poisoned attacks, may have powerweapons or some such... more like banshees but not at the same time...
