Have you seen the AU miniatures? They're horrible, like something out the early-80s Grenadier collection.Neo said:

It's funny, but due to what has come out and all like that, while I like AU as a game and as a set of rules, I am less than wild about the Diamond Throne setting. I love the races, the classes, the new magic system, but I already am fiddling with a different setting.
That being said, I've already done Midnight-style campaigns in the past (darkness all around, evil in control, what can a few brave heroes do against limitless evil, etc.) and while amusing for a while, I don't find them satisfying enough to go back to them.
So I guess I am not much help here

Sorry I'm late guys. Just saw this thread.
MIDNIGHT
If you like dark, gritty, low magic setting in the flavor of post apocalyptic Tolkien, Midnight is the setting for you.
If you don't, stay far far away.

I would love to see a Midnight game use some of the better parts of AU. I have both and I like them equaly well and a highbred would be amazing.
Midnight can be oppressive as an over all feel to the campaign, but it just depends on how far you take it. If it turns out to be too much perhaps focus on the fall of the shadow and the slow re-mergence of the gods. Lots of ways to play it out.
Both design teams/companies did a tremendous job on these books and you should get and play both!

Something bares repeating in here....
My vote is for Midnight.

AU, purely because the races and classes are different enough to be cool, but not different enough to be bizarre.

If you like Tolkein, Wheel of Time, Ravenloft, or Star Wars (the rebellion era movies); then Midnight is your game.
Your players will feel like they're participating in some kind of heroic movie or grandiose trilogy of novels; moreso than any previous D&D setting. And the interesting new twists in how your players will need to think and roleplay their characters will be an eye-opening new experience.

There are several terrible mistakes in that review. Unfortunatly, I can't go back and edit it.
