    A Tomb Blade is an Immortal on a jetbike who has access to another weapon (Particle Beamers), has T 4(5) and Sv 4+. It counts as 3 models for transport capacity and can get 3 different upgrades which one must buy. These upgrades are Stealth USR, BS 5 upgrade, and Sv 3+ upgrade and you can take all three if you want. Tesla carbine and Gauss Blasters are also TL.

    Triarch Stalker is a one-weapon Walker with Quantum Shielding. It also has a special rule where if it hits a unit all shots at that unit for the duration of that shooting phase count as TL. It can take one of 3 weapon choices with the standard being a 24" Heavy 2 melta weapon which can double as a Heavy Flamer. It has the standard mechcron profile FA 11 SA 11 RA 11 open-topped.

    You know there ARE pictures of the Triarch stalker and tomb blades IN the codex, right?

    Models would probably look somewhat like those.

    You know he DID say that he COULDN'T get the codex for a little while, right?

    Bit hard to look at the pictures when he doesnt have the book.

    not if you are a psyker specialised on acashic reading.

    but then he wouldn't have to ask in the first place so your point is still acceptable :P

    Tomb Blades are awesome 100 points for 5 guys then you can take the particle beamer for 10 points per model taking you up to 150 points and the particle beamers give you a strength 6 ap 5 small blast from each bike which = doing work son. The only problem with the tomb blades is they are in the same slot as canoptek scarabs which in my opinion are one of the best units in the codex, they are beasts which means they can move 6 fleet and assault 12 awesome! But there is more if they hit a vehicle they then roll a d6 on a 4 they take one armor form all sides on a vehicle and then they get to see if they can pen or glance the vehicle after they have reduced its armor for the rest of the game crazy.
