If standard were motion it would make sense

but anyway, at 500 points, impact hits are nice.

That was merely a rumor.

I too would prefer the chariot, but then again I'd say I'm quite biased towards them.

I believe Anathir is referring to not yours.

I'll put the warbanner in the spears instead, no big deal. annoying though.

Yep... my High Elf playing friend was quite disappointed in that little tidbit, even more so than the move to Special.

2 caddies at 1000 points is ludicrous!

Your list is illegal. Silver Helms cannot have a magic banner.

If you're using the eagle primarily for march blocking you might as well equip it with Reaver Bow, Full Mundane, Lance. I'd then drop the caddy to bump up both DP units to 6 and give one of them Banner of Ellyrion + Amulet of Light.

Well, there is the Dark Elf Pegasus... it has this neck girdle thing but other than that I think it is unarmored. Gamezone Miniatures also has a Pegasus + Sorceress model which is pretty nice. You could also just get a normal horse and add Pegasus wings to it. GW store sells them as separate bits on...

Seether - Remedy

Victork's was almost good... too bad you can't fit in the 'Yeah'.

Victory through might or lack of ethics.

The horse is excellent and I love the Spearmen standard bearer's shield!

I agree with LA, your dragon is superb.

Is it hard to paint over black/white without it showing through?

Which is precisely what I'm aiming for. I'm more concerned with the actual modelling than the fluff at this point.

Well, most of my information is coming from a fan-made Warhammer: Orient supplement. In it Samurai are not said to come from either Cathay or Nippon exclusively, so I'm assuming they are present in both nations. In any case it isn't of much consequence for my purposes.

If anything this is a problem with the BRB, not the Dark Elf book.

What shades really need are a maximum unit size.

If this is actually being run (no reply in a week >.>) I could play as either a scientist or one of the non-human races. Haven't seen all or even most of the episodes, but I'm familiar enough with the universe.

Alright, I'm planning to make a small troope of Cathayan fighters. The plan is to have one Samurai leading a group of four Kensai, and the main color is orange to fit a theme. The Kensai are disciples of the Heaven's Lightning martial art, and they are all followers of Vimtao. The Samurai will be eq...

I used plastic glue on mine and I haven't had any problems... perhaps your friend used the generic super glue? Plastic glue would've been much better.

Solely based on comp your second list will likely get a better score.

I agree with SpellArcher. A Gem of Courage or Skeinsliver on the PG champ wouldn't be bad either.

Hmm, perhaps I'm just trying to mix too much at once. Probably doesn't help that I usually paint at night under artificial light either...

Thanks LA. I'll try it as you describe next time and see if I have better results.

The World Dragon would be much better in the Swordmasters, as currently they have no magical protection. The Phoenix Guard's 4+ ward is a pretty strong deterrent for most magic as it is.

Alright, so just about everyone knows that watering down paints is very effective for painting nice clean miniatures. However, I find that when I water them down (about 50:50) some brush strokes appear to be more water than paint while others appear to be more paint than water. Am I missing somethin...

Yep, that is the program. It's the same one I used for my Lizardmen vs. High Elves battle... quite a useful little tool.

Lightning doesn't 'slow down', it just takes the path of least resistance. If you are it, then you are it... simple as that. Although in a car I'd think it would rather travel through the metallic parts.

So... vote Pirate?

Lacuna Coil - Senzafine

One thing about your Dark Elf game: the Executioners cannot hold the Ring of Hotek. It is impossible as the champion is not allowed any magic items.

Tough luck with the poor Ogres player, but what can you do... some people are just like that.
