Skimmed through the rules beta, looks good! I was just wondering will you guys be introducing new races to the game at any point? I see the Tarragin on the site, but any plans for any more of the more alien type races?

Or will EW be moving away from the Tolkien/gw 'fantasy in space' image?

;D

I would love to see a truly alien race.
Something that moves away from 2 arms and 2 legs with just an animal head.

Current aliens that will get units are the Zuzkians, Tillen and of course the Tarragin / Gurdan forces.

They'll feature in the Guild Auxillia list. Next release will be the Guild Prefect and Zho books, the Auxillia and Stygian books will follow.

They have a certain cthulu twang to them for sure. They are religious robed nutters.

The Tillen are otter men. Very good at building space ships and vehicles.

I shall buy a unit of tillen and name it nancy and keep it near me always.

...

That sounded less creepy in my head. I think you have to do it in the original (Looney Toons?) voice.

I asked as I was curious if my Space Orcs would have a home in the EW universe...

What this thread has descended into, this way madness lies! O.o


The Stygian sound like very much the ideal replacement for my other half's space Egyptians..
The Zuzkians sound like very much my cup of lovecraftian tea...

I have GW, DRM, Exodus Wars, PFC/CinC, Hammer's Slammers, GZG and few others in my 6mm Galaxy ... It's a big Universe and it's all good ... :spin There is always room for Orks ... or Bugs ... or Felids ... or Lizardmen ... or ... well you get the idea ...
