http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/31.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net 40k (or RPGs/Mordheim/whatever). I want to make the models look familiar to the traditional fantasy setting (sword and board, low tech) but with oddly futuristic bits. This is where I came up with my Lost in Spaaaaaace elves idea.

From a 40k perspective, how would you guys do this to put it on the table? I already know that Raiders look rad as pirate ships, but would spears and crossbows look too out of place in 40k? What about horses or raptors instead of bikes?

The other part of this includes adding some Exodite Eldar components to it, though all the Eldar stuff I own models-wise is Iyanden themed. Any ideas?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7440809.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7440809.page GMT
The Iron Snakes SM chapter uses Power Spears (or Lances or whatever they call them) and look pretty cool doing so.

Attilan Rough Riders IG regiment famously uses horses (as ridiculous as that seems considering this setting) so that wouldn't be unprecedented.

Would have to be some rather bold horses to tour the webway regularly I'd imagine. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7441002.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7441002.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7441088.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7441088.page GMT 40k]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7441092.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7441092.page GMT
Alrighty. Plowing ahead, wookiee crossbows and all!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7442493.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7442493.page GMT
Maiden world settled by Exodites falls into the general trappings of Eldar psychology, until largess, excess and depravity tip the scales (planet-wide) and knock their civilization back to the late Bronze Age. The new mode for life is not about self-sacrifice, but for competition and staying alive.

At some point, they meet up with some Pirates or a crippled Craftworld AND GO ON ADVENTURES.. The Maiden world supplying a healthy (though a little too "pre-fall" for the craftworlders) population of soldiers, and the Craftworld or Corsairs supplying the tech.

I'm still going to put sails and harpoons on the Raiders if I can, and I'm going to stick firm to 50% of the army with low-tech weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7497296.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7497296.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7497471.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/627600/7497471.page GMT
