ELDAR in Space Hulk

[Commander Dante]

Space Hulk wouldn't be complete without the Eldar, so here you have it!

Rules for Eldar in Space Hulk direct from Citadel Journal #5:

The GW rule-set is a little bit in need of some repair as they left a few holes and open ends - I assume they were under deadline pressures.

For one, the Eldar Farseer's psychic rule-set's relationship to the standard Genestealer psychic card set wasn't explained in any detail. Many questions were left open - Do Eldar psykers get any psychic protections? What would keep a group of Eldar from getting totally wiped out by standard psychic powers? What is the effect of standard psychics on Eldar troops? Can Warlocks serve any function besides being a puppeteer for Wraithguard? And many more questions that needed answers to fully play this faction.

So, our house decided that Eldar psykers should be integrated into the standard psychic rule-set as well, and we included Farseer as a playable model. This way Warlocks could serve some purpose besides controlling Wraithguard, and so that the Farseer or Warlocks wouldn't be wiped out in the first psychic battle they came into every game (without force protections).

We experimented with a new and 'upgraded' Eldar psychic card set that is similar to the original, and decided the Farseer could utilize both systems (as indeed, they are not incompatible, just not readily compatible or balanced). You can find the revised (and much prettier) psychic cards at the end of the document linked above.
See the Thread on Psychic Rules for more in depth explanation.

Best way to print them out is at your local printers, on the highest quality color paper they have. Then use a spray adhesive to join them to a decent quality backing after carefully cutting them out. Be sure to file rough edges. My set turned out nice!
