The Codex doesn't say one way or the other, but can warriors be upgraded to use the guass cannons?

Considering the codex doesn't say they can, it seems pretty obvious that they can't. Not to mention that there is no points value listed for a gauss cannon.

Yes of course they can, simply pay the points cost for this upgrade that is listed in their unit entry.

Interceptor Drones can disembark at any point during the Sun Shark's move (even though models cannot normally disembark from Zooming Flyers).

The idea is that it takes extra effort and time to write properly, and they’d rather save the time. If you can still be understood, what’s the harm? While most of the time a sloppy post CAN be understood, the use of proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is generally seen as respectable and desirable on most forums. It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

Pretty sure they cant have gauss cannons. Tbh i dont think they even need them, their normal weps are good enough imo for a troop. Their sparkly too...ahem.... >.>;

Amazing how you answered your own question there.

The codex also doesn't say one way or another that I can't upgrade all my warriors to shoot death-strike missile blasts each turn.

I voted depends on house rules - since house rules can be made to allow you to do anything (like ignore FoC, autowin on 1+ on d6, or allow you to pretend your codex wasn't published a decade ago and that even if it was you probably have an update coming real soon)

Dark Eldar really don't "Kick ass", they are still able to compete, but they have about 6 viable unit choices other than their HQs. They are desperately in need of a new codex and models.

6 is still more than Necrons, who have 3

They do have more then 3, though I suspect it's still less then DE I'll reasonably agree (though if their warriors equip gauss cannons I immediately retract that).

They're both not as good off as the Wolves and their 24" line o' My Wolf bit your Carnifex in half though.

DE may not have a lot of real good units in their book, but the ones they do have are really good. Raider/Ravager spam is incredibly good.

Goes of to model Fire Warriors with Railguns...

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
