  There is 2 sets of Net Epic Dark Eldar rules already created. One by
myself and the other by Darius I think. Peter are supposed to merge the two
sets of rules and launch them in NetEpic, but with everything that has been
going on I don't think he has had time to do it yet. I could send you a copy
if you are interested!

      THE EPIC QUESTION OF THE MONTH - June/July

      Every month or so we put up a question on the Epic website which we
would
      like you to answer. There are two ways for you to let us know how you
feel;
      you can click on the buttons below, or you can <email us> with a
longer and
      more detailed reply if you prefer.

      NEW ARMIES FOR EPIC 40,000

      A question we are often asked is if we plan to make any new armies for
Epic
      40,000.
      The short answer to this is yes, we do plan to do new armies for Epic
      40,000, the two top contenders being the Dark Eldar and the Tau.
However,
      the size of the Fanatic operation means we will not be able to make
the
      infantry for these armies in plastic, as it would be waaay to
expensive to
      make the moulds.

      This means that we are going to have to develop a new method of making
Epic
      scale infantry available in metal at an affordable price. This is not
as
      easy as it might sound; Epic scale models are difficult to cast at the
best
      of times, let along when you are trying to cast infantry rather than
      vehicles.

      We're considering a number of options right now (one of which is to
see if
      Forge World could make infantry stands in resin), but it is going to
take a
      while before we have found out the best way to solve this problem.
Because
      of this we're not likely to make a new army for Epic until late 2002
or even
      2003.

      Until then we'll continue making new vehicles and war machines for
existing
      armies, so there will still be new stuff for Epic players to get
excited
      about, but a new race is at least a year and half away yet.
      This said, we will get round to making new Epic 40,000 armies in the
end,
      and we�d like you to help us pick which one. So the Epic question of
the
      month is:


      "Which new army should we do for Epic 40,000 first, the Dark Eldar or
the
      Tau Empire?"
