[WH40K] A Very Aeldari Christmas
Posts
For reference:
So similar to the Marine book. All-encompassing with supps for specific variants.
Why corsairs? and not exodites? and why the harlequins in this rat crashing tome?
I really haven't clicked with Tsons because my mushbrain is more suited to playing things like Orks (run forward -> punch things)... I might flip those dusty boys before year end and add some Eldar to my Drukhari force when they release.
I've loved playing stabby elves this year.... the only thing that's kept me from shiny elves was how crap the sculpts were. If that many units are getting revamps it might be a fun addition. I'd play harlequins in a heartbeat but the thought of painting them to a level I'd be happy with is daunting to say the least.

Scatter laser plus normal long rifle, ignore cover in 12". Some kind of move shoot move rule.
First reaction is if that is all, that looks a bit superfluous with normal rangers and regular jetbikes. Looking forward to the model mostly.

Hmm I think this is either a ranger leader or Illic Nightspear
What's different: rather than set up an alternate form of entry for those in places that require such, the competition is just not available to citizens of the USA, Canada, Northern Ireland, Italy, Japan and half of Australia.
I really do have hope I can get the two AoS armies when I get paid later as there is a overall lack of them on ebay. I know people were kind of mad some of them were only available after xmas
For the Canada math thing, wasn't it so that legally you won a skill based contest rather then a lottery (so technically not gambling)?
I know that now but back then it was the lack of info of why and not knowing how to ask the question
Also last night was our club Christmas party. Proof of vaccination required. Door prizes as well. I got a red gobo on a squig, some ad mech dice, and some Eldar dice from ages ago that are nearly impossible to read.
The main prize was a $300 gift card to the store we play out of. Overall a great night.
Oh god I've just realised that's why the redesign has always looked so off to me! Why on earth change that?
Thoughts of a Part-Time Hobbyist - A Wargaming and RPG Blog
I already use my Cult like this. It’s just giving me a bonus to play the way I normally do.
Give me the book already GW.
Probably an engineering problem as doing slot casting is a pain to set up and building the model is another reason
If a unit with Crossfire causes 5 hits or any hit with a weapon with damage greater than 1, the enemy unit gets a Crossfire token. Any other units with Crossfire gain +1 to hit that turn.
That’s huge. Genestealers biggest problem is BS 4+, but if you can land, say, a bunch of hits from an Achilles on an enemy unit, suddenly your blobs of Neophytes with Mining Lasers and Grenade Launchers are BS 3+ against that unit.
There’s an actual benefit to concentrating fire. That’s pretty huge.
You could also do something like a small shotgun Neophyte squad ambushing and firing 20 shots that absolutely won’t kill a tank but give any Mining Lasers/Heavy Mining Lasers firing at the tank +1 to hit and +1 to wound depending on the angle you attack from.
It’s basically Genestealer Marker Lights, so it’s really going to come down to what units will have Crossfire to see how good it is.

Yeah I kind of just fell into starting GSC and these rules seem real cool.
Again, assumption - if Lying in Wait still exists, dropping one behind a tough unit to auto-Crossfire it with Flamers, and also be in position for Exposed so a Neophyte squad can lay in with Mining Lasers/Seismic Cannons and Grenade launchers. That could really hurt tough squads.
I guess we'll be seeing something quite different at least, with the spiky text teaser and the engine changing colour.
I don't think the leaks suggested any Ynnari specific models? But with the purple colour shift and yesterday's cryptic quote that's the vibe I'm getting.
Only two
They have previewed parts of the avatar and maybe some other models over this year though
The one on the left is 100% going to be with guard I think. Inquisitorial or like a commissar.
There were some rumours about an Inquisition retinue set this year.
If you want to look at the tease/reveal over time this page has it all

I know chunks of Reddit do.
It feels like GW are sort of copying that but they’ve ignored the fact they don’t say anything about what is coming up and that there’s something like 40+ factions a shoe could be coming from.
This advent stuff is obviously Eldar but it’s not like I’ve any idea of what the model might look like to then get excited. If GW just released an official list of what’s coming out in 2-3 months time, I’d be more hyped than showing these snippets through December
First model freed from it's bubbly plastic shackles:
Most of the models made it perfectly fine, but a few Custodian Guard I need to glue weapons/arms back in. Given that it got tossed around and flown across the ocean I'll take it.
Still I am curious overall if they are getting rid of the resin models since the craftworld eldars are the worst for it {and still sell the metal models for them :rotate:}
Would they sneak in the drukhari? Since they only have a handful of models left in resin? [the court of the archon, the Grotesque which I do hope you can custom with the parts from the talos, Urien Rakarth, mandrakes and the beastmaster with their friends
