Hooray indeed! Amazingly this is pretty much exactly what a red shirt told me about 3 months ago... What?! A red shirt got it right? Well with the laws of averages, it had to happen some time I suppose...

I'm happy, if not exactly shocked. It's about damn time GW had the balls to release DE.

Actually it doesn't say a codex yet. It just says new dark eldar will be made so more dark eldar models. Which really needed to be replaced anyway. However i'm sure they'll get the codex and everything soon. You'd think that means a codex and new stuff is coming though and not just the re-done models.

They will release a new codex with the new models, I would put money on it.

And that money goes toward a new codex purchase! Brilliant!

Well with the laws of averages, it had to happen some time I suppose... Contrary to popular belief, the guys at GW know exactly whats going on. They just won't tell us mere mortals for fear of losing their jobs. And 'YAY! DARK ELDAR!' Not an army I play, although an army I love seeing being played with.

Outstanding. I do not play them myself, but I know someone who does. I'll probably get a set of infantry for Ss and Gs.

If guard did't exist I would play DE. Fast and mean is my style.

YAAAAAY
I'm so excited I could cut a random passer-by. You only feel like that on special occasions? ;D

Only those involving the DE. Or when I'm angry, which could be the same thing.

I don't currently collect them, but I have had an itch to do a Dark Eldar army for some time... maybe I'll finally get round to doing one now...
3ff3ct: it is true that alot of GW staff are aware of quite alot of things that we are not, and also that they don't (or aren't allowed to tell us public bunnies) - but alot of the time even they are just going off the same rumours as us. It is a bit sad that we give the red shirts such a bad press though...

I originally wanted to do dark eldar but mostly because i liked hellion skyboards, drazhar master of blades (he looks cool), and the look of the vehicles was pretty cool. An updated codex with new models for existing units and new units completely will be really nice. Hopefully they make skyboards interesting and dark lances badass. It depends what we see with this codex and the new stuff. I may very well also get into dark eldar if they make them interesting enough.

Doesn't appear to be any mention in the latest WD about them though (from my very cursory quick flick through). Just that tantilising picture on the inside of the back cover... Not that pictures always translate into their model form but, do those raiders look different to anyone else? The weapons too for that matter... But I have to agree with Ymmot - new DE models would certainly suggest release with a new codex. I really cannot see them releasing new models for "a race that doesn't have much following" (quote from GW staff member) without redoing the codex to go with them. Not for the first time, I have received the latest WD and it has instantly made me want next months NOW!
