So I was wondering if you ever see something somewhere else that would be great in 40k. I think the cloaks from lotr would be great. Any thoughts.

Stargates. Just as good as the webway, but without the demons.

What cloaks from Lord of the Rings? A lot of people wear cloaks in Middle Earth. Are you talking about the physical plastic bits that are on some of their models?

The elven cloaks from Lorien.

I've always liked the idea of eldar shuriken weaponry being more like the rail weapons from mass effect. Not the most sensible thing and we already have an army with rail guns(for whatever that's worth), but far more intimidating than a hail of sharp discs, IMO.

The ones that let you blend in with your environment? That's what cameleoline cloaks do. They're heavily featured in the Gaunt's Ghosts books, and are an option in the Imperial Guard codex.

I can't think of many things scarier than a million ninja stars being launched at my face at any given time.
