Warhammer 6th Edition Dark Elves

The Dark Elf range was completely re-worked yet again for 6th edition warhammer with the release of the second Dark Elf Army Book. The range featured many elements sculpted by Chris Fitzpatrick, notably the Cold One Knights, Black Ark Corsairs, Witch Elves and Black Guard Of Naggaroth, plus most Special Character figures. While the range included models for almost all troop types (with dedicated Command figures for each unit type), there was a distinct paucity of generic character figures (no generic Noble or Highborn figures of any kind, apart from the Limited Edition Battle Standard Bearer originally sold with the Boxed Dark Elf army deal, and later through GW's "Skullz" sticker redemption program). The range did include multiple variant Assassin & Beastmaster models.




Dark Elf Warriors



Unreleased Dark Elf Warrior


Corsairs



Dark Riders

Upon their original release (in conjuction with the Tears Of Isha campaign pack). Dark Riders had single-piece Champion & Standard Bearer models and no Musician. When the line was re-released for 6th edition Warhammer, the Command models were replaced by 2 multipurpose Command figures that could be assembled as either Champions, Standard Bearers or Musicians. The Repeater Crossbow that comes with each Trooper model was also redesigned, making it slightly smaller. Otherwise the individual (non-Command) Rider models were unchanged from late 5th edition until the present day.






Witch Elves



Unreleased Bare-breasted Witch Elves




Dark Elf Shades



Cold One Chariot




Harpies




Dark Elf Executioners




Dark Elf Cold One Knights




Dark Elf Cauldron Of Blood


Unreleased "Bathtime" Cauldron Of Blood

Dark Elf Assassins

Dark Elf Sorceress


Morathi On Dark Pegasus

This model was popularly supposed to represent Morathi (since she's a Sorceress who rides a Dark Pegasus), although the rider figure looks much more like a Witch Elf.




Malus Darkblade



Limited Edition "Roadshow" Malus Darkblade On Foot



Malekith, Witch King Of Naggaroth


Unreleased Malekith On Foot


Beastmaster On Manticore


Beastmasters



Mengil Manhide's Manflayers

Chris Fitzpatrick sculpted a completely new range of Mengil Manhide's Manflayer models at roughly the same time as the rest of the Dark Elves before he left GW, but GW sat on the models and did not release them until the Storm Of Chaos campaign event, when they were finally released at roughly the same time as the Dark Elf Cult Of Slaanesh variant army list. This latest range includes Mengil himself, a Musician & Standard Bearer, plus three different variant troopers, all of them male. The Ean Hawkbane Champion character was dropped from the range for this release (purportedly killed and eaten by Mengil).
