Really? Proto's of 40K Dark Eldar! I'd been hearing rumblings of Dark Eldar
being "the next big thing" in 40K, but have generally treated these rumors
(er, rumours :) like Elvis-sightings - "Uh-huh....right." :) How did the
DE figs _look_ ??

>- There are no plans for the 'Skaven In Space'
A relief - Space Skaven in 40K struck me as foolish - they'd be _perfect_
for Necromundia, but the idea of Skaven 'charging across the battlefield'
seems just dumb, IMO...
But, a Necromundia supplement for Skaven.... I'd buy _that_!

Hey, after the WHFB Chaos Dwarf hats, anything is an improvement! :) :)
