I still have that T-Shirt

I got all the cool stuff in my short time at GW. Half price Space Hulk, and the most hilarious GW comment of the past year

Well, I'm sure the reveal won't be until after noonish then.. C'mon, ya think the first thing they will do is present DE? More likely they'd make you wait til nearly the end of Games Day.

They will do it 2 hours after games day, just to annoy everyone.

Has there actually been any kind of promise about showing Dark Eldar off at Games Day, or is this just the Interwebs setting itself up for a rant at nothing, quoting unmade 'promises'

We'll they sort of said it themselves


Once you're done laughing at Rob, you can click on the image for a better look. For those of you attending UK Games Day, I've some more good news: Jes Goodwin will be there to talk about the Dark Eldar and knowing Jes, show off some cool Dark Eldar-related stuff. If you haven't picked up a ticket to Games Day yet and if you live in the UK or Northern Europe, then you can order a ticket by clicking on this link. If you live anywhere else in the world, you'll need to use the 'Country Select' menu at the bottom of this page and select the United Kingdom for the link to work. At the moment this is all I know about the forthcoming Dark Eldar, but as usual I'll do my best to uncover some more information for you. Watch this space.

Yes. They posted it right on the GW website that DE would be revealed.

Ah well that's alright then innit

Just seen too many 'promises' be ragged on, without ever having been made.

Though it does say 'Dark Eldar related stuff'. Doesn't necessarily equate to models.

And thus why there is a debate over whether Dakka is actually better than Warseer. In Dark Eldar news, here's a link to an Adobe account from a guy who is planning to attend Gamesday.

What I like about the model is that it's a troop model with a skull attached to it that DOESN'T look like it was taken off of a newborn pygmy.

How much of a dork am I that I keep looking for more photos and info on the DE? I know I won't get them for a couple of months but I want to see them now! If I was rich I would have flown to Games Day UK just for DE tidbits.

I imagine one will pop into existence once Gameday starts. It's still only around 5 in the morning there, I think.

It could also simply be that single Dark Eldar Warrior model that was spoiled.

Only in the absolute vaguest and loosest sense imaginable. GW will show something, and give some sort of status update, that could range from as little as "Jes has sculpted a handful of models and Phil is working on the Codex - we'll tell more after GD closes" to "we're actually going to release a Codex this year".

The way GW works, for all we know, Dark Eldar could herald a new "openness" about upcoming releases, with the announcement that DE won't release for at least another year, but we'll all get irregular "progress" updates as new stuff becomes available.

In the mean time, wiithout anything concrete actually said by GW, the Intarwebz spin away...

I tend to think the back page of White Dwarf saying something along the lines of "Hey look what we're releasing next month!" is pretty concrete confirmation.

Post by: JohnHwangDD

Where did they say they were releasing DE next month?

From what I've seen, that's purely conjecture unsupported by actual fact or statement from GW.

Got a quote you can share?


Dark Eldar rumours - another try @ 2010/09/26 07:26:12


Post by: derek

Next month from the latest WD month would be November, as it is the October White Dwarf with a splash ad promoting Dark Eldar on the final page (which they do to promote their releases for the following month, as they have done with WD for years now). This was posted on the GW website last week and the WD should be out now too.
