That GW copyrighted 'Eldar' is something I find is a great irony.

Eldar, Space Marines.... and the eight pointed star of Chaos, used by humanity since forever and made popular by Michael Moorcock as a symbol of the Chaos Gods.

It baffles me to no end.

[tangent] The symbol of Chaos was straight up invented by Moorcock for one of the early Elric stories. It's widely assumed to be "ancient" (nobody seems to know where it's supposed to be from specifically) but I've never seen it on anything pre-1960s.
