Yes i know.

I was pointing out that Drahzar is Arhra.


In the dark eldar novels that idea is pretty much debunked. Nothing concrete but it doesn't seem as obvious as before that book.



Only if you believe that BL is Canon, which i don't

Even they don't, and have said so

There is no Canon. We are completely Canonless over here


If we did consider BL to be canon then all of it would have to be, which allows in some absolutely godawful and contradictory fluff.

Goto for example...or some of the redonculous stuff from the Cain novels.

We can't do anything about godawful codex fluff, unfortunately.

Drahzar may be Ahrha, or he may not. I think he is. It has neither been explicitly confirmed nor denied. Unless they specificly say that he isn't in a codex or the rulebook he still may be

Or not.. I prefer the uncertainty. The lack of concrete 'this is so' in 40K is one of the best things about the setting, especially since most of the fluff is heavily biased by the source

I'd like to see some more special characters for the Kroot. I knew they had one at some point but I'm not even going to try and spell it. I don't think it's in the game anymore. Could be wrong.


Angkhor Prok. I think I have his model somewhere... really cool Shaper. Was a Games Day miniature, so technically he never had published rules except on the little card that came with the conbook.

Here they are; http://trobarts.customer.netspace.net.au/anghkor-prok.pdf (looks like the official ones, but it's years since I saw them in hardcopy ^^

I want to see Saint Arabella. Back from the Eye of Terror and ready to kick some arse for the Emperor.

Masculine Male Wych





While it sounds like the BL has trashed the idea of Drazhar as Arhra, there are so many references to him DEFINITELY being the original phoenix lord, such as Karandras fighting him being described as "Fighting his original mentor" Etc.

But I digress!

I'd like to see a Salaine Morn model, Archon of the Kabal of the Shadowed Thorns. She could be a pretty unique character, and given her exiled status/mercenary lifestyle, she would make a killer battle brother for a Eldar force, or vice versa

Spoiler:

It certainly wouldn't be too hard to kitbash her from an Archon and an extra Wych head, and kit her out like an Archon (as she's supposed to be), but she would be more fun with some rules of her own. GW needs to snap it up and release models or release more DE characters. We get no love over here, come on

I'd like to see a special Assassin. Right now they're all faceless (and the rules and models always have been), but in their old Codex there were defined characters and enough intrigue and politics to rival the puritan/radical Inquisition divide.

It'd be a good excuse to explore another temple's technique, too.

Forrix is dead. Was killed in the Iron Warrios omnibus by a Titan. Tried going up against it's blaster cannon and didn't quite make it.


I'd like to see Uriel Ventris (he is the 3rd company captain after all), Gaunt, Macharius, though I don't think you can use a Lord Commander as a model for the IG (I don't play 'em, dunno).
