Gee, hard to believe they will get one the same time that the IG get theirs according to rumor.

Very possible. GW want to bring older ed's of codexes up to date for 5th ed and, to be frank, the dark eldar are sitting on a dusty shelf somewhere in GW HQ. We never see a DE battle report anymore in WD.

this is a quote from bell of lost souls
"Priestly also mentioned Dark Eldar. He's got the miniatures and the codex. He was quite keen to point out that they would be seeing 'some love' soon."
so its quite possible

"seeing 'some love' soon" can mean a lot of things. According to some of the girls i know, that could mean as long as 3 years, lol
DE codex? probably not by christmas, or there would be more stuff and rumors avaliable. early 2009 is my bet.
they need to finish work on the guard codex before then, just seems too early.

I too feel it is a bit early as well. With the rumors we are seeing for the guard and the marine codex both are slated to be out before the years end and then the Dark Eldar? Somehow, I don't see it happening without neglecting their WH fantasy line, and since it turned 30 this year I doubt that will happen. |

eatpies, I'm not saying you are wrong in what you heard. I just think the source of your information may be wrong. The Dark Eldar will be getting a codex, but their current one is a second printing of their codex for 3rd ed to bring it up to date for the 4th Ed game.
Which is why it has that huge emblazened "Second Edition" stamp on it.
People who say that they are still running on rules that were made for 2nd have not played second ed or they would know that the rules were completely overhauled for 3rd. When 3rd came out every army had a brief synopsis in the main rule book so that folks could play the game until the codex was released. Eldar, and Dark Eldar were one of the last to be released right after the SOB, Assassin, and Aramgeddon codex.
The IG codex was put out early in third and updated in a similar fashion (Codex kept the same cover {Boarder changed color} and they basicly a reprint for some rules, removal of fluff etc... but no real changes to the army) to the Dark Eldar.
