@Hunkyfish20 actually Asdrubael Vect is already a retard and who care of him ? everyone know he is a shitty character no one likes him (only people who play has Dark Eldar) WE ARE THE EMPRAH FUHRY!!!
.......... You do realise that they just killed the leader of the dark eldar race as a whole.... In such a weak maner.........That makes me mad! How dare they kill of one of the most inportant warhammer chariters like that!!!!!
This mission was the biggest cop out ever, when I destroyed the Dias (by accident I might add) and the mission ended I thought the game had glitched. Seeing as I was playing Imperial Guard and this was my final mission I was fairly pissed.
@TheForestWanderer uhm... Cammoragh is older than the Heresy, which was 10000 years ago... it dates back to the fall, i think, where some eldar had embraced all the kinkyness of Slaanesh. they fled into the webway, but lacked soul stones, so instead, they drink souls to survive. they founded Cammoragh inside the webway, where it still grows... or atleast thats how i remember it...
@MrOctopus285 it is the moost important province of an army, when an army is defeated in their main province, or stronghold, the army will be kicked out of the campain, and will loose its ability to atack, so, when the IG defeated the dark eldies at their stronghold, they lost the campain
hmmmm.... what the the guy says at the end speaks volumes about the Dark Eldar in general. He's pretty much like 'oh no he has died, I shall take his place' when its really 'good now that he's dead more power for me'. If the DE won here he would have been like oh cool souls and playthings but instead they lost and it still works out for him.
@anotherinternetter Actually it is more likely that the Black Heart Kabal would execute him for his failure. Then again he could try to pin the blame on Vect. Besides we don't know for sure if Vect died.
lol .....starscreams hmmm i think not ,i ask what some woud have don in that situation ...i think runing woud be a good idea but still to take hes place, tahril hazent that much luk.
@Kemonokami For some reason this made me laugh. Alot. Maybe because everyone else is talking about the Dark Eldar and you go ahead and funny up the most common guardsmen warcry heard 12 or so times in the background.. Good one.
@Potatonaught True..but in this one it is more reasonable as the amount of guardsmen might of been what left of a whole seige unit, they did just run across a heavily defended base. But the chaos one is just silly..even when you apply the same excuse to it.
Well can u guys pls xplain somethin' , I succescesfully destroy the Dais of Destruction without completing the side quest like ' destroy the soulstorm ability' and etc... so are there a bonus if you actually complete the mission 100%?
@illidanwashere772 No, bonus objectives are just there to help you out, because completing them weakens the enemy. You gain nothing from them in the long run.
That also happens with the Orks, and as an added bonus the Orks have a contest to see how far they can throw the Dark Eldar in their cages on the moon's lower gravity.
Well clickingpinging, i looked at the site you sent me, except that it mentioned NO WHERE that the dark eldar are atheist. It says that it's unknown as to whether their need for souls is to slate the thirst of slaanesh or not. Regardless, it still doesn't say that they're atheist. Considering that the CODEX ITSELF mentions multiple interactions between the dark eldar and slaanesh, i GUARANTEE you that the dark eldar ARE NOT ATHEIST.
Also clickingpinging, i actually play the Dark Eldar on the normal tabletop game, which is where all of the history comes from. And guess what. The dark eldar codex mentions multiple interactions between the Dark Eldar and Slaanesh. Not to mention that there's a special army list in forge world called the Cult of Slaanesh, where Dark Eldar fight alongside Slaanesh daemons. You tell me to get a reliable source, yet you have yet to say where you found out that Dark Eldar are athiest.
@Arkaeya I think you're thinking of dark elves in fantasy. There's a cult of Slaanesh in fantasy, combining dark elves and slaanesh chaos stuff, but not in 40k.
I assumed from the codex that DE collect souls to feed Slaanesh so that he/she will eat those, while playing with the extras they collect
@TearyWrist They actually have a similar list for Dark Eldar. And my only point is why would the Dark Eldar feed souls to Slaanesh if they're athiest. They don't fully worship Slaanesh like the chaos, but they DO interact enough. Long point made short, the Dark Eldar aren't athiest.
@TearyWrist My point is that they aren't atheist. That's all I'm trying to prove. Slaanesh IS a god, whether you think so or not. All four major chaos powers are gods. Atheism is the belief that no gods exist. CLEARLY the Dark Eldar know that Slaanesh exists..
im just saying, they ahve low morale weapons arent very strong and dark eldar warriors have high powered guns, i was basically just saying somethign that isnt totally true but has a reasonable point.
Well you see bro, The Imperial Guards they are humans and every sheep needs a shepherd without it its going to be scared as shit. So yea you are rite that the Imperial guards men have low moral but if you add them a LordCommissar. Lets just say that those dark elders have a small chance to win, the Lord Commissar usually gets even better weapons, 3 wounds and raises your moral up to 10 which beets a lot of armies. My point is that the IGs are really good if you combine them with the rite stuff.
i'm not sure. there probabbly will be more craftworld than dark eldar cos dark eldar are eldar corrupted by choas, and betrayed the craftworlds just like the chaos, so probably more craftworld eldar.
@kingLorshi actually the dark eldar ARE corrupted by chaos. They worship Slaanesh and spend their lives living decadently. When they die their souls are consumed by Slaanesh. Basically, their the Eldar who were too lazy to fight back, so they embraced the god they created. :P
@clickingpinging OH MY GOD, you people know nothing. Read Warrior Coven and THEN try to tell me that the dark eldar don't worship slaanesh. The entire story is about them feeding souls to appease a slaanesh daemon princess. Next time actually read up on the race before assuming anything. They DO worship slaanesh and refer to it as She Who Thirsts. So yes, they do follow slaanesh. Just look at their culture. Decadent and full of pleasure...hmmm, why does that ring a bell?
@clickingpinging the dark eldar DO worship slaanesh, they are not aetheists because aetheism is not believing in the existance of any gods, where the gods of chaos blatently do exist. that is the whole reason for the divide of eldar and dark eldar; dark eldar are eldar who were corrupted by slaanesh...
@Grymbaldknight Check lexicanum,i already disguised this pointless topic with another guy. You will find out that i'm right in Lexicanum.
Also,Chaos Gods aren't actual gods,since they were CREATED by the emotions of humanity (Slaanesh however was created by the Eldar's emotion),and everything that is created and not pre-existing can't be called a god. They are just powerfull...well very powerfull waro entities.
@clickingpinging No, but Khaine is an actual god and the dark eldar know he exists, therefore they aren''t athiest. And by the way, it states NO WHERE in your Lexicanum that dark eldar are atheist.
@Arkaeya And neither does it says that they worship Slaanesh.
Also Khaine is the biggest example why powerful Chaos entities aren't Gods,if Khaine was an actual god,he wouldn't become powerless.
And as i said before there is no thing in WH40k universe that is an actual god,the gods in 40k don't pre exist,the 3 Chaos Gods where created by the war of the heaven,slaanesh was created by the eldar's darker emotions and the eldar gods were created by the eldar's noble emotions,there you go.
@clickingpinging actually The eldar Were created by the isha the eldar goddess of life and the harvest. She also created the first spirit stones and the door from the warp to reality.
@orome21 This is pure Eldar mythology,the Eldar were created by the Old Ones as a weapon against the necrons and the C'Tan.And after the War of the Heaven the remaining Old Ones teach the Eldar how to use the webway and their technology.
@orome21 that also is untrue they even say in the necron codex that the times in the past were distorted. The old ones were the first of the eldar race. The current eldar are a hybrid version of the old ones.
PS:Because you are trying to troll by replying to closed topics without any proof of your 'philosophies',i'll simply stop this pointless corversation-turned-into-troll war with simply not replying to your pointless moronic replies.Go forth and say what you wish,noone stops you,but at least don't call this Warhammer 40k,simply call it "Arkaeya's Warhammer 40k" .
@clickingpinging Yes Lelith does, its in the book Warrior Coven. And by the way, your the one who's being a troll. I don't see why its that hard for you to accept the fact that SOME dark eldar DO worship Slaanesh.
@Arkaeya Okay,may i tell you a litle secret then,a lot of things are twisted in the novels,the Black Library employees have admitted that themselves.I own the latest Dark Eldar codex and there is no thing that says about Lelith being a Slaanesh Worshipper.
You are the one that speards false information here.Dark Eldar worshipping Slaanesh is just the most idiotic thing,-why- would Lelith worship a deity that only cares about consuming her soul?You are just being clueless right here.
@clickingpinging I'm not being clueless. Consider this, people worship chaos in return for the promise of power and immortality. SO, it makes perfect sense that Lelith turns to Slaanesh, seeing as they're both decadent and enjoy pleasure. She gives Slaanesh the souls It wants and in return is given power.
@Arkaeya Slaanesh does not want to be worshipped by the Dark Eldar,all it wants is to have all the Eldar (Dark Eldar or Eldar) dead,so it can feast/torture their souls for all eternity.That's one of the reasons the Dark Eldar continually torture their victims to death and then restore their souls with the souls of their victims,because Slaanesh periodically drains the Dark Eldar's souls.
You are just clueless,cause if you knew the Dark Eldar Eldar lore you wouldn't pull out this bullcrap
@Arkaeya Also,let's say that Lelith is worshipping Slaanesh,and Slaanesh accepts that,shouldn't Lelith have mutated like regular Chaos followers? And don't tell that she hasn't received any mutation yet,all major Dark Eldar characters are at least 5000 years old (not to mention Vect who is over 10000 years old).
@clickingpinging Just because she deals with chaos doesn't mean that she'll mutate. Look at Kharn or Lucias, Neither have visible mutations. Same with Ahriham(srry for bad spelling). My only point is that some dark eldar THINK that if they please slaanesh then they'll get let of the hook. Lelith only deals with slaanesh to gain control of a cabal and to gain more power afterwords.
@Arkaeya Kharn does not have mutations because he gets killed...A LOT,and Khorne keeps ressurecting him over and over in his default human form.And about Lucius,he has mutated a lot,but he doesn't have any major mutations like tentacles,check his picture on lexicanum.Anyway,the only followers of chaos who have their mutations halted are Abbadon(he just doesn't like to mutate,and is a vital pawn of the chaos gods) and the sorcerers of the Thousand Sons(they caused it).
@clickingpinging Ok, i don't know where you got that, but Kharn has never been killed. Lucias has died a lot, but Kharn has never died, nor has he recieved any mutations. And also, Slaanesh would care if Lelith worshiped him because he would get the souls she gives him, and then he would just eat her soul when she dies as well.
@Arkaeya Kharn got killed twice during the Horus Heresy,and at least one time in each Black Crusade,that goes at 15+ deaths,go check the CSM codex or lexicanum.
@clickingpinging You also don't seem to realize that I've played warhammer for nine years. The DARK ELDAR CODEX ITSELF even mentions interactions between dark eldar and Slaanesh. Are you going to tell me that the official codex itself is wrong now?
@Arkaeya And to end this pointless debate.I will stop from here,seeing that you have started changing the subject since you have no valid points in your.-Lelith does not worship Slaanesh,nor does any Dark Eldar (read my previous posts or check Lexicanum for reason).- Get that straight into your mind,i don't care what novel you read that said this bullcrap,but it's not cannon,not,cannon. Stop spreading misinformation,cause it just makes you clueless at best and moron at worst.
@clickingpinging No Kharn didn't die you moron, I have both Chaos codexs and both rulebooks so don't tell me he did. LUCIAS died during the Horus Heresy but not Kharn. And also, the Lexicanum even states that not everything on the site is accurate and I fail to see how explaining how one of your sources in inaccurate is changing the subject.
@Arkaeya And again,about Lelith i will tell this for the last time:
I told you to check lexicanum,and it says nothing about Lelith being a follower of Slaanesh.I also proved you why Slaanesh doesn't care if a Dark Eldar worships it and only wants to rip his/her soul and torture it for eternity.To end this,i will tell you again that Black Library publishers themselves admited that at certain points they twist lore,consider the whole "some-Dark Eldar-worship-Slaanesh" topic part of it.
@clickingpinging And by the way. The Lexicanum is not a reliable resource either. Just look at the title page. It says The UNOFFICIAL Warhammer 40K Encyclopedia. And right below it states that the site it FAN MADE. Therefore, the books from the black library are much more accurate, seeing as they're written by people who actually right the codexs and rules, while the Lexicanum is only by fans.
@Arkaeya You do realize that GW monitors Lexicanum at a daily basis for any misinformation right?You also realize that every page,fan-made or not has GW copyright which means that they cant 1)speculate 2) fanmake. Arguing about Lexicanum's canonity is pretty lame go and check the GW copyright right in from of their homepage,and i pity you since not only you are a clueless bastard but also a weak debater that changes the subject..
@Glass11 Actually, I take that back. He wrote Warrior Coven, for some reason I thought Graham McNiell did. But yeah, in that book it talked about Lelith dealing with a Slaanesh demon, therefore some Dark Eldar do interact with Slaanesh. That Clickingpinging kid was convinced that just because his precious Lexicanum said they didn't that it was true.
@Glass11 Why would you? Generaly they are incorrect and well, come on, tank surfing terminators? really? Just look at the Dawn of war books. Very different to the game.
@Arkaeya Actually, the fact that they are corrupted by Slaanesh is exactly why they hate Chaos so much. They know that if they die, Slaanesh will eat them, which is partly why they set out to take captives: in order to drain them of their souls and thus prolong their lives even further.
Oh lord,you keep on butchering the Dark edar lore.
For the last time,Dark Eldar don't worship Slaanesh,Slaanesh is the Chaos entity who drains their souls.And they torture cause it appeases them,not because they revere a god,they are ATHEISTS.
And here's the deal,search for a RELIABLE source in the internet where it says CLEARLY that the Dark Wrship Slaanesh,or stfu and gtfo.
@clickingpinging NO they aren't athiest. In the book Warrior Coven it LITERALLY SAYS that Lelith(dark eldar leader) needs more souls to appease Slaanesh and develop a good relatioship with a slaanesh daemon princess. So answer this dumbass. WHY THE FUCK WOULD THE DARK ELDAR TRY TO GATHER SOULS TO APPEASE SLAANESH IF THEY'RE ATHIEST. I'll tell you why. Because they aren't fucking athiest. They do worship Slaanesh.
They don't worship slaanesh per say. After the fall Slaanesh developed an unbreakable tie on their souls, gradually leaching it off of them. The dark eldar in turn leach the souls of others, indirectly giving more to slaanesh. Their word for Slaanesh translates to "She who thirsts" Acknowledging warp creatures exist doesn't neccesarily qualify as a religion.

The Dark Eldar are led by a man called Vect right?But is Vect his title or his name,I mean has there been more than one Vect over the years?Can some one explain please?I thought Vect was like their Witch-King or somthing.
his name is vect and he is the leader of the dark eldar's most powerful cabal (a dark eldar clan). a dark eldar warrior can become the leader of the specific cabal if he proves himself to be the cruelest and bring in the most slaves to sacrifice. vect's popularity will suffer for this defeat but he wont be weak enough for someone to try and take his place from him. i'm surprised that the dark eldar committed forces for pitched battles, usually they prefer small-scale hit and run assaults.
Vect will likely pin the blame on Tahril for this defeat as the latter party was the one in charge of this mission. Vect was just an observer so he'll survive with his prestige intact.
As for the pitched battle, the Dark Eldar were caught by surprise by their attackers PLUS they clearly weren't finished yet rounding up slaves so naturally, they'd want to fend off whoever was attacking them with their cunning and speed.
lmfao........ they just killed the leader of ALL dark eldar? this game is so pathetic.

Not true ....Sorry, I use to play alot with IGs. I wone basically every battle with them..Except for the Tau...

im just saying, they ahve low morale weapons arent very strong and dark eldar warriors have high powered guns, i was basically just saying somethign that isnt totally true but has a reasonable point.
THEIAN11 2 years ago
Well you see bro, The Imperial Guards they are humans and every sheep needs a shepherd without it its going to be scared as shit. So yea you are rite that the Imperial guards men have low moral but if you add them a LordCommissar. Lets just say that those dark elders have a small chance to win, the Lord Commissar usually gets even better weapons, 3 wounds and raises your moral up to 10 which beets a lot of armies. My point is that the IGs are really good if you combine them with the rite stuff.

i'm not sure. there probabbly will be more craftworld than dark eldar cos dark eldar are eldar corrupted by choas, and betrayed the craftworlds just like the chaos, so probably more craftworld eldar.

Wrong, Dark Eldar are simply sadistic and corrupt, but not corrupt by chaos. THey still hate chaos though.
kingLorshi 2 years ago
@kingLorshi actually the dark eldar ARE corrupted by chaos. They worship Slaanesh and spend their lives living decadently. When they die their souls are consumed by Slaanesh. Basically, their the Eldar who were too lazy to fight back, so they embraced the god they created. :P

Dark Eldar are ATHEISTS,and even if they weren't they wouldn't worship Slaanesh because Slaanesh drains periodically their souls..
clickingpinging 2 years ago
@clickingpinging OH MY GOD, you people know nothing. Read Warrior Coven and THEN try to tell me that the dark eldar don't worship slaanesh. The entire story is about them feeding souls to appease a slaanesh daemon princess. Next time actually read up on the race before assuming anything. They DO worship slaanesh and refer to it as She Who Thirsts. So yes, they do follow slaanesh. Just look at their culture. Decadent and full of pleasure...hmmm, why does that ring a bell?
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@clickingpinging the dark eldar DO worship slaanesh, they are not aetheists because aetheism is not believing in the existance of any gods, where the gods of chaos blatently do exist. that is the whole reason for the divide of eldar and dark eldar; dark eldar are eldar who were corrupted by slaanesh...
Grymbaldknight 1 year ago
@Grymbaldknight Check lexicanum,i already disguised this pointless topic with another guy. You will find out that i'm right in Lexicanum.
Also,Chaos Gods aren't actual gods,since they were CREATED by the emotions of humanity (Slaanesh however was created by the Eldar's emotion),and everything that is created and not pre-existing can't be called a god. They are just powerfull...well very powerfull waro entities.
clickingpinging 1 year ago
warp entities*
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging No, but Khaine is an actual god and the dark eldar know he exists, therefore they aren''t athiest. And by the way, it states NO WHERE in your Lexicanum that dark eldar are atheist.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya And neither does it says that they worship Slaanesh.
Also Khaine is the biggest example why powerful Chaos entities aren't Gods,if Khaine was an actual god,he wouldn't become powerless.
And as i said before there is no thing in WH40k universe that is an actual god,the gods in 40k don't pre exist,the 3 Chaos Gods where created by the war of the heaven,slaanesh was created by the eldar's darker emotions and the eldar gods were created by the eldar's noble emotions,there you go.

@clickingpinging Yes Lelith does, its in the book Warrior Coven. And by the way, your the one who's being a troll. I don't see why its that hard for you to accept the fact that SOME dark eldar DO worship Slaanesh.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya Okay,may i tell you a litle secret then,a lot of things are twisted in the novels,the Black Library employees have admitted that themselves.I own the latest Dark Eldar codex and there is no thing that says about Lelith being a Slaanesh Worshipper.
You are the one that speards false information here.Dark Eldar worshipping Slaanesh is just the most idiotic thing,-why- would Lelith worship a deity that only cares about consuming her soul?You are just being clueless right here.
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging I'm not being clueless. Consider this, people worship chaos in return for the promise of power and immortality. SO, it makes perfect sense that Lelith turns to Slaanesh, seeing as they're both decadent and enjoy pleasure. She gives Slaanesh the souls It wants and in return is given power.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya Slaanesh does not want to be worshipped by the Dark Eldar,all it wants is to have all the Eldar (Dark Eldar or Eldar) dead,so it can feast/torture their souls for all eternity.That's one of the reasons the Dark Eldar continually torture their victims to death and then restore their souls with the souls of their victims,because Slaanesh periodically drains the Dark Eldar's souls.
You are just clueless,cause if you knew the Dark Eldar Eldar lore you wouldn't pull out this bullcrap
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@Arkaeya Also,let's say that Lelith is worshipping Slaanesh,and Slaanesh accepts that,shouldn't Lelith have mutated like regular Chaos followers? And don't tell that she hasn't received any mutation yet,all major Dark Eldar characters are at least 5000 years old (not to mention Vect who is over 10000 years old).
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging Just because she deals with chaos doesn't mean that she'll mutate. Look at Kharn or Lucias, Neither have visible mutations. Same with Ahriham(srry for bad spelling). My only point is that some dark eldar THINK that if they please slaanesh then they'll get let of the hook. Lelith only deals with slaanesh to gain control of a cabal and to gain more power afterwords.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya Kharn does not have mutations because he gets killed...A LOT,and Khorne keeps ressurecting him over and over in his default human form.And about Lucius,he has mutated a lot,but he doesn't have any major mutations like tentacles,check his picture on lexicanum.Anyway,the only followers of chaos who have their mutations halted are Abbadon(he just doesn't like to mutate,and is a vital pawn of the chaos gods) and the sorcerers of the Thousand Sons(they caused it).
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging Ok, i don't know where you got that, but Kharn has never been killed. Lucias has died a lot, but Kharn has never died, nor has he recieved any mutations. And also, Slaanesh would care if Lelith worshiped him because he would get the souls she gives him, and then he would just eat her soul when she dies as well.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya Kharn got killed twice during the Horus Heresy,and at least one time in each Black Crusade,that goes at 15+ deaths,go check the CSM codex or lexicanum.
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging You also don't seem to realize that I've played warhammer for nine years. The DARK ELDAR CODEX ITSELF even mentions interactions between dark eldar and Slaanesh. Are you going to tell me that the official codex itself is wrong now?
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya And to end this pointless debate.I will stop from here,seeing that you have started changing the subject since you have no valid points in your.-Lelith does not worship Slaanesh,nor does any Dark Eldar (read my previous posts or check Lexicanum for reason).- Get that straight into your mind,i don't care what novel you read that said this bullcrap,but it's not cannon,not,cannon. Stop spreading misinformation,cause it just makes you clueless at best and moron at worst.
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging No Kharn didn't die you moron, I have both Chaos codexs and both rulebooks so don't tell me he did. LUCIAS died during the Horus Heresy but not Kharn. And also, the Lexicanum even states that not everything on the site is accurate and I fail to see how explaining how one of your sources in inaccurate is changing the subject.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya And again,about Lelith i will tell this for the last time:
I told you to check lexicanum,and it says nothing about Lelith being a follower of Slaanesh.I also proved you why Slaanesh doesn't care if a Dark Eldar worships it and only wants to rip his/her soul and torture it for eternity.To end this,i will tell you again that Black Library publishers themselves admited that at certain points they twist lore,consider the whole "some-Dark Eldar-worship-Slaanesh" topic part of it.
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging And by the way. The Lexicanum is not a reliable resource either. Just look at the title page. It says The UNOFFICIAL Warhammer 40K Encyclopedia. And right below it states that the site it FAN MADE. Therefore, the books from the black library are much more accurate, seeing as they're written by people who actually right the codexs and rules, while the Lexicanum is only by fans.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya You do realize that GW monitors Lexicanum at a daily basis for any misinformation right?You also realize that every page,fan-made or not has GW copyright which means that they cant 1)speculate 2) fanmake. Arguing about Lexicanum's canonity is pretty lame go and check the GW copyright right in from of their homepage,and i pity you since not only you are a clueless bastard but also a weak debater that changes the subject..

@Glass11 Actually, I take that back. He wrote Warrior Coven, for some reason I thought Graham McNiell did. But yeah, in that book it talked about Lelith dealing with a Slaanesh demon, therefore some Dark Eldar do interact with Slaanesh. That Clickingpinging kid was convinced that just because his precious Lexicanum said they didn't that it was true.

@Arkaeya Actually, the fact that they are corrupted by Slaanesh is exactly why they hate Chaos so much. They know that if they die, Slaanesh will eat them, which is partly why they set out to take captives: in order to drain them of their souls and thus prolong their lives even further.

Oh lord,you keep on butchering the Dark edar lore.
For the last time,Dark Eldar don't worship Slaanesh,Slaanesh is the Chaos entity who drains their souls.And they torture cause it appeases them,not because they revere a god,they are ATHEISTS.
And here's the deal,search for a RELIABLE source in the internet where it says CLEARLY that the Dark Wrship Slaanesh,or stfu and gtfo.
clickingpinging 1 year ago
@clickingpinging NO they aren't athiest. In the book Warrior Coven it LITERALLY SAYS that Lelith(dark eldar leader) needs more souls to appease Slaanesh and develop a good relatioship with a slaanesh daemon princess. So answer this dumbass. WHY THE FUCK WOULD THE DARK ELDAR TRY TO GATHER SOULS TO APPEASE SLAANESH IF THEY'RE ATHIEST. I'll tell you why. Because they aren't fucking athiest. They do worship Slaanesh.
Arkaeya 1 year ago
@Arkaeya
They don't worship slaanesh per say. After the fall Slaanesh developed an unbreakable tie on their souls, gradually leaching it off of them. The dark eldar in turn leach the souls of others, indirectly giving more to slaanesh. Their word for Slaanesh translates to "She who thirsts" Acknowledging warp creatures exist doesn't neccesarily qualify as a religion.

Vect the soul eater I think he created the soul consumption device that dark eldar use me thinks. Although he dose not need it for some reason.
ubermenproductions 2 years ago
his name is vect and he is the leader of the dark eldar's most powerful cabal (a dark eldar clan). a dark eldar warrior can become the leader of the specific cabal if he proves himself to be the cruelest and bring in the most slaves to sacrifice. vect's popularity will suffer for this defeat but he wont be weak enough for someone to try and take his place from him. i'm surprised that the dark eldar committed forces for pitched battles, usually they prefer small-scale hit and run assaults.
thedarknesscallingme 2 years ago
Vect will likely pin the blame on Tahril for this defeat as the latter party was the one in charge of this mission. Vect was just an observer so he'll survive with his prestige intact.
As for the pitched battle, the Dark Eldar were caught by surprise by their attackers PLUS they clearly weren't finished yet rounding up slaves so naturally, they'd want to fend off whoever was attacking them with their cunning and speed.
