Damn shame the patch doesn't execute :(.

I seem to remember this scene having more dialogue. The seer had something to say about both the mantle and the sword (the mantle was so that "he may know who he serves" and the "wailing doom" was to "ignite his battle lust" I think). Why doesn't this scene have all that? Recording glitch? Was that only in the beta? Am I just remembering wrong?

@GDevourer As far as I know (the old Codex mentioned it) the Eldar do have children, but not often and it takes a long time for them to mature. Therefore, any loss of a life has a strong impact, since they don't "grow" new Eldar in tubes like the Dark Eldar do (now there's an idea!)

@StanleyBradshaw Better than the game that was about Tau. But then again, pretty much every game did better than Fire Warrior...
-
wait, a game about Eldar?
Color me suprised, did it do well?
-
@mecher3k I would like to actually know what are the the losses so far (I mean statistics). Can Eldar reproduct themselves?
-
Looking back at it this scene is incredibly fluff-accurate, with the blood/cup of criel, the weapon, the cloak -- everything.
ironically, the only thing they seem to have gotten wrong was Eldrad Ulthran being from Iyanden or something. He's even got the paintjob of an Iyanden seer

@HardWarUK As far as I know, this game was released only on CD. It may be that the last WH40000 video game released on floppies for PC was EA's excellent adaptation of Space Hulk, which was originally published in 1993. However, it did get also a CD release, which had some additional missions.

@DamoclesAlpha Wouldn;t be the case of a floppy version versus a CD version? I am in England, and have a UK copy so will have to load it up and check! :)

@ henners1991 well the flames doesnt burn forever :p
Eye of terror consuming most of their worlds, most of their gods dying, constantly getting in battle to save their craftworlds, and on and on.
Really, helps to actually know the lore before speaking.

Hurr, don't mind Gumbii, he's probably one of those overzealous Space Marine fanbois.
