Ok. I've seen this again and again, and it pisses me off.
Why the bloddy hell does it say.. "linemen" on the WE, HE, DE, Skaven, Orc etc teams lists. They are not bloody men!!
My league started doing this looong ago.
LineELF
LineRAT
LineORC
You know, undead don't call their skeletons or zombies linemen. And chances are they at lest were.
Dwarves got the right idea. Longbeards.
Could we please make this official.
Imagine how a High Elf would react if you called him lineman.
So, I wanna run a poll on this
Comments would be cool too!

Oh sure, tell that to a dark elf, and he'll rip your heart out, and stick in down your throat.

He wouldn't, actually, because he's a 25mm high lump of painted metal

Hey! I atually painted a high Elf Lion warrior yesterday. I'm very pround of my self! Even got the color scheme working.
Some of my opponents actually get annoyed with me if I call their orcs or skaven linemen.
Personally, I think it's ensulting towards my players.
VOTE: Absolutely. Brilliant Roy. (please.. it's my first poll, I'm pround of that too!
Cheers! It's friday!

if you really wanted him to be happy you'd call him "princess dandelion of sweetleaf meadow" instead... that's what he keeps trying to get his friends to call him...

Yeah, I've seen that minature. At first I thought he was just in 4-point stance....
Sorry, I must have bypassed my "good taste" chip.
Moderators, delete at will.

Oh I know what would happen - he'd start acting like human lineman and fail dodges allover the place.
Perhaps High Elf line-elves should actually be called something like Griffon Warriors?
Cheers,
