I've never seen them, but I only started playing in July, so I guess thats a good reason. But I'm starting a DE army soon, I'm waiting for them in the mail still

I don't see anything wrong with them, their Codex is old, but it still kicks ass, so the codex isn't bad, when they make a new one, they should update some of the rules, put more fluff in, but keep their stats as they are. Models aren't great, but they're not THAT bad. I wouldn't mind if they got updated alittle.

If GW doesn't want to redo DE, they shouldn't Squat them, they can just bring out a modified version of their current codex, fixing instances of rules that no longer exist.

And if you're worried about parents-in-law, seriously, just put them out of sight. How hard is it to pack them up and put them in your closet or under your bed? If they can still find them, they're crazy anyway and it shouldn't matter.


See, here's the thing. My inlaws really wouldn't care one way or the other, nor would they really go out of their way to get this stuff. However, if I were to collect an army of what appears to be bondage fetishists, the people around me would actually wonder why the hell I'd ever be inclined to do so (especially my fiancee, for the record). If I were to show up to a GW store with an army of the Diaznettes with their many, many bewbs proudly painted, I'd expect a few sideways glances. Same goes with the Dark Eldar. Here's my army of half-nude males and females, undressed slaves lounging on ships, and extreme S&M types: accept me as a good person and let me hang around with your kiddies, moms!


My local GW store is next to a Goth/bondage fashion shop. So I don't think it'd be as much of a problem, but there is a wall seperating the two.

PLEASE no flaming . Just trying to understand people.


OP doesn't hate the DE, he just wants to find out why others do.

And for those of you think that your half naked toy soldiers don't make people look at you funny..... they do, you just haven't noticed it yet.


I was almost a DE player, and people look at me funny anyway. So what difference would it have made?
