Craftworld Eldar in the rumormill

[Mr Mystery]

I keep hearing Marv quote, but with a sing-song, lyrical quality to it...

'These are the old days, the good days, the all-or-nothing days'

Welcome back to the fold, 2nd Ed 'Eldar as they should be'. I wasn't scared of you then, and I'm not scared of you now. But it's damned good to see you, you have been sorely missed.

Now, where'd I put me Heavy Bolter? It's time to make some Pointy Ears do the 'splodey dance....

Scatterlaser jetbikes drop flyrants remarkably well, though.

If you consider 1000 points getting 4.5 wounds a turn on 200 point models "remarkably well" sure they do. If not the math doesn't back up your statement.

[Mr Mystery]

I'd say there's enough dakka there to worry a Flyrant. Sure, it may be unlikely a single volley will chin it, but such potential there.

Especially if Guide still twin-links stuff. Yes I'm aware I'm adding stuff to the equation

Aye. And Doom

Yes. 800 points of shooting at a 200 point target will worry most things. That does not make them good at it. These are knowable numbers if you'll do some math. Jetbikes are good, but they are not good at everything.

I can't be bothered reading through pages of hysterics so can someone just tell me what's happening with Banshees?

+3" run / assault, ignore Initiative penalty for cover.

Supposedly.

Add 3"to run and charges. Ignore penalties for charging through terrain. Otherwise the same. Take them in the aspect formation and they are all ws5.

[eldargal]

That's pretty good, I mean it won't be so bad losing a couple to overwatch now if you're striking first again.

Yeah GW managed to do what we wanted them to do for them... Amazing.
