Craftworld Eldar in the rumormill

[Gleipnir]

all the new methods taken on there own isn't all the confusing its when ya start using allied detachments that things start getting wonky with IC's jumping around between detachments or transports and the like.

Is that a real thing or is it a conversion?

I'm pretty sure it is a conversion It has the existing Eldar Farseer on the back. Makes me want to make an Eldar podracer though...

I think it's actually a bit of Photoshopping, but it might be a conversion. Someone dropped it into the local GW Facebook chat with the comment "New Eldar L.O.W.!"

A bit of humor for a topic that's gotten a bit testy at times.

That would be pretty humorous.

And now I wonder why I haven't done that with Orks... Well, aside from the issue that it has to be mostly GW parts for me to be able to use it in the GW store, of course.

2 Dakkajets with the wings lopped off attached with small chains to a Warbike with no wheels, or one of the Black Reach Deathkoptas without the heli blades. Suitably oversized engines compared to the towed vehicle, just needs a red paint job! I have no idea what it could be used as in game rules though. Bit pricey too.

A Podracer?

Saddle, dakka and handlebars nailed to an Eldar anti-Grav platform, squig gut ropes hooked up to lots of Rokkit Paks.

Those must be the new JetWraithbikes(^TM) the Eldar are supposed to be getting

They actually look pretty cool, might have to try converting my old bikes to that style (mostly so I don't have to keep repairing the @#$%^&*() riders all the time), especially as I phase in the new ones.

Reminds me of Nuadu Fireheart, a Saim-Hann Vyper Rider. OG.

An unfortunate reality. I never wanted it to happen, but some people HAVE to do something to get GW attention. If we get your attention the Eldar players and then in turn we all complain and create a huge bitter rage fest between our two groups. We'll get GW to intervene. Perhaps sooner than 2 years as an exception to this abomination of a codex. It's going to really have to suck for Eldar players though to get GW attention. Considering the same thing has happened to GK in the past and Tau I'm not seeing why Eldar players new, old, fair, cheesy, or any combination should be any exception to the rules.

Wow, I'm a few pages late to reply to this, but I really have to. I just wanted to say that I'm a peaceful person, don't like conflict and berate violence in any form... But I have a really strong urge to punch you in the face right now for being an ****
This might make you stop reading, but I beg you please continue..
My friend introduced me to 40k about 8 years ago when i picked up Eldar because i liked their background, aesthetics and interesting units. I started playing them with the introduction of 5th edition and believe me they were pretty bad back then. They never even got a codex through the 5th edition and were badly outdated. I managed to squeeze a win here and there but was mostly loosing, and you know what? I still had a lot of fun and never complained about anything. That lasted for 6 years until the notorious 6th ed Eldar hit the shelves in 2013. Yes, Eldar got huge buffs all over the place and I was very excited about it. I started winning much more but realized that some of the lists I played really were to strong and my opponents weren't really enjoying the games. When complaints started how serpents were too powerful I dropped them completely (not that I spammed them in the first place but O.K.). To compensate for maneuverability (cause i actually used them as transports) i started using Warp Spiders.. Suddenly they also became unfair - "too fast, uncatchable, OP guns...".
O.K. I drop them too and go for long range firepower and of course War Walkers also became "too cheap for all the firepower they can dish out and their shoot and run back to cover gimmicks."...
And finally there is this one game against the new Space Wolves when I even warned my opponent "Are you sure you're going to move your dreadnaught into assault range of my swooping hawks? They have haywire grenades.." He says "It's ok, he has an inv save..". After the hawks tear the dread apart, they suddenly become OP as well.. And that was just one of many more mistakes he made which caused him to loose.. You know what he told me after the game? "It doesn't matter, I don't feel bad for loosing cause you're playing Eldar and have an overpowered codex...". Most of games I won, felt like undeserved wins because my opponents rarely gave me credit for outsmarting them, punishing their mistakes etc.. It was the codex's fault. (And I truly believe you're one of those players too)
I used to nerf myself into oblivion just to get some recognition for my plays and so both players can have fun and now you're encouraging people to completely decline games with Eldar players... Can you even imagine how that makes me and a lot of other Eldar players feel? Not all of us are playing the game just to win. Some of us play it for fun and you have absolutely no right to take that away from us.
The sad thing is that a lot of people will listen to your advice, cause I've seen similar attitudes on other forums and blogs.

That's really low man.. Really low...
