Hey guys,
Just out of curiosity, is it possible to take Imrik, Crown Prince of Caledor in a standard High Elves army (rather than a Host of the Phoenix King/Host of the Eternity King)? My gaming group uses the 50% Lords & Heroes allowance from the End Times, and have imported the combined profile rules for ridden monsters from WAP so I thought Imrik might be fun to try out, and Battlescribe seems to allow fielding him in a normal High Elves army. I did some tests today and it seems like, with the WAP combined profile rules, Imrik hits super hard on the charge - not surprising considering he's rocking the Star Lance - but monster-riding characters in a similar price bracket fared pretty reasonably against him. I tested him against Karl Franz on Deathclaw (wow, Ghal Maraz is just brutal) and a tooled up Vampire Lord on a Zombie Dragon.
Anyway, when I actually went and looked at his rules in End Times: Khaine, it doesn't appear that he can be taken with a standard High Elves army after all, so I wanted to double check. If not, it's not the end of the world - I will probably just run him in a Phoenix King army with only High Elves units.
Conversely, if people feel that he will still be too strong, if there are fan made rules for Imrik that anyone knows of that are closer to his 7th edition incarnation I would be happy to use those instead.

Depends on your group, really. Some have gone oldhammer and use early rules. Some use ore-End Times 8th. others use End Times. Some have gone 9th Age or Warhammer Armies Project or other fan-made/house rule variants. What they allow will vary quite wildly.
It's really a subject you should be talking with your group about instead of us. About all we can do is point you toward various rules for Imrik to use, we can't tell you whether your group will allow them.

It should be fine as long as your group agrees. Also, I was pretty sure his rules state he can be used in a High Elf army...double check that. Usually in Italics...
