Well, I think one of the driving factors for evil elf parts is that they are the only army that doesn't have anything available at all. People might be lucky enough to have bugs from long ago or alien communists from more recently, evil humans can mostly use the non-evil human parts, and dead-on proxies are available for the ancient robots, but there are no evil elves game pieces in the wild.


THIS.

The old chicken and egg thing gives me the irrits when it is trotted out. Poor logic indeed. Seeing units that have already been extensively covered being redone exacerbates the irritation. Sure, some of them are things of beauty, but really apart from (the somewhat overstated) scarcity of Tyranid infantry it is hard to understand.

The Sisters were greated with a huge sigh of relief, now lets close out that last remaining mainstream subject matter void please people. ::)

What about upgrade and conversion kits for existing GW figures. I'm mostly thinking Titans / Gargants but there's no reason why modules couldn't be designed to say convert a shadow sword into a storm sword for instance?

*For Titans I'm thinking, poseable legs for the warlord + an expanded "plug in" weapons system with the lucius style plating?

*An upgrade kit for mega gragants / great gargants? (head, gun batteries, power packs, rockits, turrets, runts, buzz saws etc.)

*Warmonger variations. I personaly think the warmonger is a bit of a war-mongrel, a spiffy imp to warmonger conversion kit with new rocket and vengence cannon arms + flak bateries.

All of the above would provide plenty of bitz that could be used for other conversions such as ordinati, siegeworks etc. Ultimately though it comes down to whatever the modeller feels inspired to work on, and I'm very grateful for everything that the various memebers of this community have provided so far.

**Edit**

Oh and upgrades for FW stock vehicles, e.g. skyrays will always be on sale because of Aeronautica but a range of plug in turrets could provide conversions for some of the vehicles which may not be returning to sale.

Same with eldar in that the firestrom chasis could be used with a variety of turrets.

Correct :)
I guess Manchurians have something similar but the twin sickle magazine on the top would be difficult. Not to mention of the chassis.

i just primed some so you can see them better. my pics never look good. ill post when the paint dries like 1/2 hr . 1/2 the inf has a mold done other 1/2 is waiting. we were hoping to get everything up and going so the army was able to be bought by people so people would play them. they are a cool army to play (we have 2 done).
