wont we have a copyright problem in the same way you cant photocopy GW stuff?

Just that thats in the WD and I didnt think you could copy something out of one mag to put in another. I could be wrong.

Hi guys, i don't mean to change the topic in here, but this is the first post for Epic40k I have seen in here, and I still play it.  I was wondering if anyone had put together a prototype Dark Eldar Army list.  I love the Dark Eldar in 40k, and have always been disppointed that I didn't have them in epic.  I'll post pics of what I have done soon, but here is a description on how I am making the stands/models:

Dark Eldar Lord: I took an Eldar Warlock, cut off his right arm, and stuck an Ork Nob powerfist on it and posed it in the way the Dark Eldar looks in 40k.  I also added a cape by trimming off the cape from a Tzeentch Disc Rider, sanded it down, and set it so it draped over his back.  I made four Incubi by using Valahla Imperial Guardsmen bodies, added Swooping Hawk heads, and sticking the blade from Ork Boyz models at the end of the gun to make their (oh I forgot their name. . .).

Dark ELdar Warriors: I used the Eldar Guardian minis from Epic Space Marine, the ones with Lasguns, since they looked a little bit like Splinter cannons. An Eldar Guardian carring a lascannon over his shoulder looked a bit like a Dark Lances so there is my heavy weapon for the stand.  I didn't bother adding spikes and what not, and they look pretty good and different enough from the newer Eldar Guardians.

Dark Eldar Scourges: Here I used 3 Eldar Swooping Hawks and 2 Eldar Exarchs, which makes the stand look like I've got 3 Scourges with Spinter rifles and 2 with Heavy Weapons.  I know theie winds aren't the same, but you know right away what they are.

Wyches: Mostly Eldar Harlequin models with a customized Banshee here and their to represent a Succubus.

Reaver Jetbikes: Pretty much Eldar Jetbikes.

Talos: This is going to take some work, but I am using the Eldar Vibro Cannon as a base and will scratchbuild the rest.  I am shooting for three of them.

Raiders: There is now way I am building these from scratch, so I'll probably use the old Falcons.  Who can't argue that Eldar pirates wouldn't use captured Eldar equipment. . .

That's is so far.  I have been customizing all sorts of mins lately.  My favorite is a Tzeentch Command Stand with Thousand Sons heads, as well as a few stands of Screamers using the Tzeentch Disc Riders without the riders, mounted on three per stand. By the way, I use Warmaster stands for bikes, calvary, etc and they look great.  

What do u think about the rules?

See ya.

Thanks Darkone, I am too lazy to deal with signing up for all the freakin Yahoo groups.  If you have it, can you email it to me at knowlton01@hotmail.com? Thanks!

I just want the information from the articles.

Good idea to post it, but I do think that would be a copryright issue. ?Does that copyright still hold when it is old, outdated and no longer available for purchase though?

And Gandalf, the reason I started this topic here is because technically those articles were for the e40k system. ?Sorry, I dont play it, having dabbled somewhat in earlier days but discarding it in favour of my beloved 2nd Edition :;):

Hi!

I'd be careful posting any GW stuff "as is" since they may have a problem with it. If people need scanns of the material I suggest doing it directly and privately. Thats the procedure I use and it keep those nasty lawyers at bay.

You are totally right Primarch, especially with the recent weed up GW's butt about internet sales and the like.

I'm not inticing anyone to break the law, but my email address is posted and I am standing by....thats all I'm going to say i think

Except thanks in advance :L

Ok so I was correct then.  That was something I wanted to avoid anyway within incoming.  Rather than using 'used' articles I wanted to have original stuff from epic fanatics and other related stuff like VOID.

Gandalf: an email has been sent with the dark eldar list.... enjoy.... although there are some amendments to be made, but dont ask when   :cool:

Tas: I will see what Legion4 comes up with, if not I can help you out.
