Wondering what our consensus is.
The last one should say new race

why does thier need to be a new race when 2 old codexs need to be redone very badly, The Orks and The Eldar.
IN fact, I believe the next codex out is Cities of Death (something like that) Pretty much, City fight 2.

It could be argued that maybe the eldar should be scrapped and a new race released. There is precedent, Squats went away as did slaan.
This would free up room for a race people would play.
My only concern about the redo of orks... what needs to be changed? (except lootas)

Well, how about all the wear gear that apparently works but doesnt because of the new rules.
How about fixing the waaahg rule that we had a discussion about
Lootas yes...
Lets clarify when you mob up...
Lets get some new units, Becuase everyone else got something new or improved.
How about fixing the codex so we dont have 3 faqs for them.
Clan codexs or put them in the ork codex.
-make the clans more diversified.
New types of looted vehicles?
Something new to give them an edge that they need to be a bit more competitive. Becuase if they were, more people wold play them.

Dark Elder and Orks both need it. Orks more, but Dark JEldar need to be at least brought back!

Why do dark eldar need to be brought back?
They didnt sell they were not all that good and there is far more demand to Bring Squats back.
Squats got ignored all 2nd and 3rd edition, dont they deserve a codex first?
My proposal is let dark eldar die. It was a failed experiment.

Dark Eldar seemed like a neat concept at the time they were brought out. But imho I think they are going to go the way of the squats. The really are just an modified Eldar list, not so much as a race of thier own. The have a Talos thats diffrent and open topped skimmers. Other than that I dont really see too much of a diffrence between them and eldar.

I would like to be selfish and say Dark Angels.. but Blood angels and space wolves are in about the same boat. Orks or Eldar need some attention. As for killing off eldar, if they do that, they should at least do a head nod twards it. Have a little campaign, "Fall of the Eldar" or something. They could schedule it in October  |

As it turns out, GW might actually be gearing up to update the orks. I'm sure you guys look at War Seer, but I thought I'd mention this. Also, there was a series of sketches posted for the dark angels earlier, but GW had them pulled from the web. warseer.net/news/2/10#62warseer.net/news/2/10#58 |

Thanks James! I havent seen those yet. Nice to know someone is at least giving the orks some thought.
Bring back wierd boyz (our psykers) Squib riders? New bikes, and a new unit: Ork Stompa, bigger than a dreadnought...they said its about as big as a land raider on its nose. rumored to be a transport too?
Some neat ideas there. I hope some of them make it into the new codex.
Rumors say 2007 summer ofr orks. But agains this is all rumors. but the concept artwork is really nice.

Rumor has Eldar this summer or fall. I heard rumors that dark angels are in the pipeline somewhere soonish.
