i am not sure if it's clear to everyone - CoC has eternal hatred now...
And executioners too! Do any of our heroes have eternal hatred? That would be nice IMO.
Moderators: Layne, The Dread Knights
is there something else he can do?

Eternal Hatred is the rule that all Dark Elves get, it's only normal hatred but with another name.
It's different from the Black Guards current Eternal Hatred rule.
I'd give the book 9.5/10 for just the things posted on these forums let alone the whole book.

From what I have heard so far, however, it seems to be an excellent example of how to write a decent and balanced army-book that gives the general lots of viable options when putting together his army. Shame about the brainfarts, though. Still, miles and miles beyond the stuff we had to put up with in the previous edition.
But hatred rly does not float my boat. I dont care about how powerful it makes my units blah blah as long as GW knows how to balance things point wise everything will be taken into account I hope. It destroys my fluffy view of DE (which is a hard pill to swallow).
Also I never ever give much though to the magical items a race has access to. For me 99% of the book is based on the troops and the options.
Khainite for the executioners makes alot of sense to me, they are after all srevents of the khainite temple

Ah... One important thing - Black Amulet sucks. It allows no armour saves, ward saves and regeneration can be taken as normal. Every powerful enemy has ward or regeneration save => totally useless item, especially for 70 pts.

Hmm, I don't know. You could take Black Amulet, Crimson Death and load your DL (Dreadlord) up on Mundane armour. The Black Amulet is great, apart from it's new horrendous price.
What I'm peeved about is that Executioners Axe hasn't changed much. Same amount of points but it causes D3 wounds, not exactly my mug of beer. However, I can see myself putting it on a DL and him in a ASF banner/BG unit. Some good results good come from that.
