I love how playing dead by daylight might as well be a form of dark eldar torture
-
Chaos: Natural order of existence, even if it's evil. Drukari: Just plain dicks.
-
I find it ironic that they are one of the horniest factions in 40k and yet they mainly reproduce via cloning
-
I think we have a different notion of "edgy". Having spikes on your armour is edgy. Turning people into rape-able furniture for thousands of years is abhorrent.
-
Remember that Dark Eldars had literally no Codex for ten whole years, and they STILL got more love and attention from GW than the freaking Ynnead. I'm still mad.
-
"Cry all you want you can't untorture your chapter master" Damn, I want to play this army just to use this sentence during a game.
-
It never occurred to me until you brought it up, but Dark Eldar probably love the current state of forever-war, don't they? Everyone fighting everyone, murder on a galactic scale, no sissy hugbox funtimes.
-
I read somewhere that a dark eldar scientist literally turned himself into a sentient beam of light That's both fucking awesome and hilarious They're the mustache twirling villain of this universe and nobody can change my mind
-
Khorne: Violence, murder, and bloodshed. Also Bravery, honesty, and honor. Tzeench: Scheming, mutation, and betrayal. Also hope, change, and adaptation Nurgle: sickness, decay, and death. Also fortitude, family, and acceptance. Slaneesh: Suffering, excess, and pain. Also love, art, and beauty. Dark Eldar: Eternal, endless torment. Also really enjoying your job.
-
Athiests: I don’t need a God to have morals and do good. Drukhari: I don’t need a chaos god to tell me to do the most depraved shit anyone can imagine.
-
Dark eldar have so much edge that they can make a tau bleed from across the galaxy when they mention their gun name.
-
As a T'au player (both tabletop and Dawn of War), playing against Dark Eldar is possibly the most aggravating thing possible, but it's still funny that someone quite accurately describe Commorragh and how evil they can be
-
I’m surprised there hasn’t been a story about a Waagh going to comaragh and since the fight is so big all the orks just converge there
-
"WE CAN REBUILD HIM! We have the TECHNOLOGY!" - a Humonculi after their client dies durring a raid
-
I like how the lore pros makes these guys out to be the absolute edgiest Mary Sues of all time but the Cons basically say “Yah despite all that, they are basically irrelevant to the entire universe, they’re like just a special flavor of Chaos once in a while”
-
An abridged summary of the Drukhari… Lelith: “Hey, it’s your favorite Egirl, Lelith Hesperax.” proceeds to kills people with her hair blades Rakarth: doing experiments so horrible that the other Dark Eldar find them traumatizing Drahza: killing everything with his massive sword “Mediocre.” Mandrakes leader: pops out of the shadows “Hey kids, wanna see a dead body?” Lord Vect: watching all this play out “Hi, I’m Asdrubael Vect, and welcome to Jackass!”
-
In Age of Sigmar the dark elves are chaotic good guys. They're still sadistic assholes but they stay as part of ordertide factions because they despise Slaanesh and the forces of chaos.
-
Perfect choice of music for the intro and background. Quality stuff.
-
I’ve kinda abused the liberties of flavor and made my army a chaotic neutral band of mercenaries that broke away from Commorragh and only torture Orks and Tyranids. Someone once asked me why even play Dark Eldar at that point and I just said I just think they look neat.
