Codex Eldar

Craftworld Eldar

Introduction Tworzenie własnych Codexów, lub ich własna interpretacja, zawsze spotykały się

z dezaprobatą. Albo były przegięte w jedną, albo w drugą stronę, albo były po

prostu nie potrzebne. Powód, dla którego zabrałem się za pisanie tego dexu, jest

prozaiczny – Eldarzy na 5ed, w obecnych warunkach SMowo-Gwardyjskich, ssą

niesamowicie. Nie będę wyważał kolejny raz otwartych drzwi: wiem dokładnie że

trzeba czekać, tak jak czekali Dark Eldarzy i tak jak czekają Necroni i Siostry.

Ale pobawić się zawsze można ;)

Fluffowe opisy każdy zna. Nie ma co ich tutaj wklejać; nie ma co Wam zabierać

czasu. Opisy jednostek oraz ich wargearu jak i zasad specjalnych będą w języku

angielskim, dla uproszczenia sprawy - jednak nie dotyczy to wszystkich opisów.

Każdy ma kodeks po angielsku, więc nie będę mieszał Wam w głowach.

Enjoy.

Army Special Rules Fleet of Foot – Unlike other races, Eldar are very fast and agile. To represent that, all

Eldar roll three dices - instead of one - when rolling for Fleet move, picking up the

highest result.

Agility, Speed, Manevourability – All Eldar vehicles receive 4+ cover save for

moving more than 12”. In addition, if they have moved in the previous turn, they can

be only hit in close combat at the roll of 6.

FAQ: Scorpion’s Chainsword +1STR is already included in the profile. Exarch with

SC has got S5, but for the clearance of the Exarch statistics, I didn’t include it in his

profile here. Biting Blade now inflicts D3 wounds instead of one for each strike (but

with standard S4) and is a two-handed weapon. Chainsabres are S4 now.

FAQ: Dragon’s breath Flamer is now S5AP3 Assault 1 weapon. All Fusion Guns and

Firepike roll 2d6+1 for armour penetration (plus normal S8 from the gun itself). Feel

the pain, mon’keigh.

Howling Banshees.................................................................................90


Banshee 5 4 3 3 1 2 5 9 4+

Exarch 6 6 4 3 2 3 6 10 3+

+ War shout for +10 points


FAQ: A lot of changes here. Now, Banshee Mask gives either Plasma and Defensive

Grenades; it also gives our ladies ASF special rule. Acrobatics now changes their save

to Invulnerable in close combat only. War shout is launched always on the first turn of

combat. Enemy unit must take a leadership test with a -2 modifier. Fearless units take

leadership test at normal. If they fail, they fight with their WS lowered do 1.

Wraithguard........................................................................................105


Wraithguard 4 4 5 6 2 2 4 10 3+/5++

Warlock 5 4 3 3 2 3 5 9 4++

Wargear: Wraithcannon

Special Rules: Wraithsight, Slow and Purposeful, Fearless

Unit Composition – 3 Wraithguards

Options:

+ Unit may be led by a Warlock for +40 points or by Spiritseer for +50 points.

Spiritseer, in addition to normal Warlock powers/special abilities, gives +1I to his unit

Wraithguard unit.

point cost. Wraithsword is a power sword that allows to re-roll misses in close combat.

+ You may add up to 7 Wraithguard, each for +35 points.

If unit numbers less than 5 units of Wraithguard (+ Warlock, if present), unit may have

a Wave Serpent Transport for 80 points.

FAQ: Warlocks and Spiritseers remove Wraithsight and SaP special rules from the

unit. If either of them is killed – these rules return. Wraithcannons are the same as in

the codex, except they have 18” range.

Harlequins are the same as in Codex: Eldar. I don’t want to mess up with this cheese.

Heavy Support Dark Reapers.....................................................................................75

WS BS S T W A I LD Sv Dark

Reaper 5 4 3 3 1 2 5 9 3+

Exarch 6 6 4 3 2 3 6 10 3+

Wargear: Defensive Grenades, Aspect Armour, Reaper Launcher, Range finders

Exarch may exchange his Reaper Launcher with:

+ Ancient Shuriken Cannon for +5 points

+ Tempest Cluster Missile Launcher for +10 points


+ Fast Shot – 10 points

+ Crack Shot – 10 points


FAQ: A lot of changes here. Ancient Shuriken Cannon is S6 AP4 Assault 4 (pretty like

the Maugetar), Tempest is the same as in Codex: Eldar. Powers work the same. Deadly

Accuracy subdues -1 from the target’s cover save, so when a petty Space Marine is

sitting in his cover, a hit from Dark Reaper will result only having 5+ cover save,

instead of generic 4+ save. Nasty. Range finders allow to measure distances whenever

you like.

FIre Prism...............................................................................................110

FAQ: Crystal Targetting Matrix allows to fire one weapon as if it was a Defensive

fire it once (per turn, ofcoure), but with the following profile: S9 AP2 Heavy 1, Lance.

Wraithlord...........................................................................................125

NIghtspinner...............................................................................110


Nightspinner 4 12 12 10


Wargear: Twin-linked Doomweaver Twin-linked Shuriken Catapult

Unit Composition – 1 Nightspinner

Nightspinner can be upgraded with following:






Nightspinners’ Shuriken Catapult can be exchanged for:



FAQ: Pretty the same as in official rules; Only BS and options changed. Ah, it also

costs 110 points, instead of 115.

Fast Attack Warp Spiders.....................................................................................110

WS BS S T W A I LD Sv Warp

Spider 5 4 3 3 1 2 5 9 4++

Exarch 6 6 4 3 2 3 6 10 3+/4++

Wargear: Runic Aspect Armour (4+ inv), Warp Jump Generator, Haywire Grenades,

Deathspinner

Special Rules: Fleet of Foot, Warp Jump, Hit and Run

Unit Composition – 5 Warp Spiders.

Unit Type: Jump Infantry

Options:

One spider may become an Exarch for +20 points.

Add up to 5 Warp Spiders for + 22 points each.

Exarch may exchange his Deathspinner with:

+ Dual Deathspinners for +5 points

+ Spinneret Rifle for +10 points



+ Monofilament Storm – 20 points

+ Perfect Jump – 10 points

FAQ: Warp Spiders – difficult matter, I suppose. I’ve changed their save from 3+ to

4+ invulnerable, to represent their sophisticated Aspect Armours, which are covered

with runes of preservation. Deathspinner remains the same as it was, thus the Warp

Jump and rest of the Exarch’s stuff. Monofilament Storm makes their weapons

Rending, but they will not shoot next turn. Something for something. Perfect Jump

discards one dice when Deep Striking into battlefield. Now they roll only d6 + scatter

dice when Deep Striking. Swooping Hawks..................................................................................110

WS BS S T W A I LD Sv Hawk

5 4 3 3 1 2 5 9 4+

Exarch 6 6 4 3 2 3 6 10 3+

Wargear: Aspect Armour, Haywire Grenades, Plasma Grenades, Lasblaster, Haywire

Grenade Pack, Plasma Grenade Pack

Special Rules: Fleet of Foot, Hit and Run

Unit Composition – 5 Swooping Hawks.

Unit Type: Jump Infantry

Options:

One Hawk may become an Exarch for +20 points.

Add up to 5 Swooping Hawks for + 22 points each.

Exarch may exchange his Lasblaster with:

+ Hawk’s Talon for +10 points

+ Sunrifle for +10 points


He may also have:

+ Power weapon +5 points


+ Skyleap – 20 points

+ Perfect Jump – 10 points

FAQ: Here we come cheesy. Perfect Jump works the same as in Warp Spiders,

Skyleap works the same as in the Codex: Eldar. What Plasma Grenade Pack and

Haywire Pack do ? Let me explain.

When you have 5 generic SH with an exarch, for instance it works like this:

S4 AP5 Assault 1 Large Blast

But adding Swooping Hawks will expand the ability of this grenade pack. It goes as it

is written:

Number of Hawks S AP Type

7 5 5 Assault 1, Large Blast

8 5 5 Assault 1, Large Blast, Pinning

9 5 5 Assault 2, Large Blast, Pinning

10 6 5 Assault 2, Large Blast, Pinning,

Ignores Cover

Pretty nasty, eh?

Ok. What to do with Haywire pack? It is S3 AP5 Assault 1, Large Blast, Haywire. All

vehicles that under the template (even partially) are treated as if they were hit by a

haywire grenade. When you raise the number of hawks to 8, vehicles suffer d3 hits; 10

Hawks automatically stun vehicles + d3 hits.
