Ok, first off.. I'm juuust getting back into wargaming. I think the last game I played was the day after 3rd edition came out. (About 8 years ago)
Anyway, I've settled on Dark Eldar, but.. I want to convert them all Skaven-ie with heads and tails n' stuff.

To be honest, I'm mostly into the game for the modeling, but on the rare occasion I opt to play a tourney, would i even be able to field such an army?

Do you follow the rules in the dark eldar codex? Is it clear what all the models are? (fer ex, no 'That rat ogre over there is a wrack, that rat ogre over there is a talos, and that rat ogre over their is a raider transport).

Then you're fine.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure.

Yeah, 100%DE codex, all base DE models.. all correct what you see DE weapons..

As long as everything is clear as to what it should be, I doubt anyone will have a problem with it. The only issue these sorts of armies have is, if like Bookwrack said, there are confusing conversions. This is seen by a lot of people as being deliberate to get away with cheating.

Make sure models are distinct enough so this doesn't happen, and you should be golden.
