Although I've never seen them IRL, all I've heard is good about the Elysians. If they come warped, ask for more from FW. I have no idea how they play though.

I think it is time to stop mocking the OP's way of posting.

Elysians look nice but will cost you a lot so be prepared for that. If that is not a problem go for them they are nice models.

Consider this stolen forever and ever.



Sihamoni takes great pride in the league he helped create, as was conveyed in his recent advertising campaign for the CMFL that stated his midgets will "... take on anything; man, beast, or machine."

They're nice models, but like the Tallarn forgeworld and older FW regiments, if you're unlucky like me you'll end up getting mould lines across their faces and the leg pads.

Not to mention they were a nightmare to put together, especially with all the fiddly shoulder pads.

Also, very different to get various special weapons. the lasguns and special weapons arms are moulded onto the arms itself, so you can't just buy the special weapon pack from FW and stick the weapons on, lots of messy cutting and sawing to get the options you want (also no plasma gun armed model outside of the CCS!)

Otherwise, decent models, bit of a hassle to get together but well worth the time and money.

Sure it was off topic, but man, what a doozy!

So, OT, Elysians are awesome, they are the 'right' scale, and they will cost you a ton of money if you're planning on fielding a sizable force.

If you've got the time, patience and money - go for it!

And be sure to post pictures of the results!

The Guard plays well with Blob Squads
and loads and loads of tanks.
The Elysians use the same tanks that everybody else uses
and you will go broke buying blob squads from Forge World.

You could use Imperial Armor
but those books cost way too much
and not everyone will play with them.

Only buy Elysians if you really want to buy them.

Forgeworld? It depends.
If the kit is old, avoid.
If new, go for it!
