Games Workshop Warhammer 40000: Eldritch Omens

Product Information

But straight off the datasheet she's equipped with a shuriken pistol, her brutal star glaive, and plasma grenades (though the stats for a plasma grenade are not included in her datasheet).

The Ranger long-rifle is now S4 -1AP 1DMG rather than having no AP, the Rangers can forward deploy, still get an additional +1 to their save in cover, and can be a bit harder to shift with some excellent wargear options. Beyond that, there’s the Maulerfiend (which can also be built as a Forgefiend), and two generous transfer sheets, one for the Craftworlds and one for Heretic Astartes, with 379 and 364 transfers respectively. Whilst this little run-down serves in the first instance to highlight the huge disparity between the number of figures included in a 40K box when compared to an AoS box, it also shows that, when compared to either franchise, 16 figures is pretty poor.

We saw this when the Ork roll-out happened late 2021 with the new Squighog riders, the Kill Rig, and the update to Kommando models in Kill Team. For the Aeldari, there’s a highly customisable new Autarch who’s been designed to synergise with the existing Autarch model. Whilst they haven’t been in the limelight anywhere near as much as their hated loyalist foes, their range has been bolstered with the addition of the occasional new model – but again, the rate at which these have been received hasn’t come close to certain other factions within the Warhammer 40,000 franchise.

Obviously this will be a big draw to players of both of these forces, especially to the Aeldari who have a codex arriving very soon! Along with a robust book of lore describing key moments in the conflict on Daethe, the new Goliath Down rules add a fun twist to the game. Closer in is where the fun really starts, because both the other options make up for their 12″ range with some truly wild capabilities.The story that’s provided is, again, a fairly generic – if chest-pounding, high-octane and explosive – Warhammer 40,000 affair. As folks have also pointed out the Dark Vengeance box set from around 10 years ago contained way more models, all of which were “new” at the time, however, they were ETB easy to build. There’s a stillness to them one may expect of a group of camouflaged snipers or scouts – and that’s fine.

The 16th is a mighty, smoke-belching Forgefiend – the forces of Chaos can never have too many daemon engines. Also valuable are the things the Banshee Mask provides, and frankly you may need to sit down for this one. The Aeldari have happened upon a Black Legion outpost where a particularly sinister Warpsmith is using the current of the ever-raging warp storms to further his own nefarious ends. That provides fantastic flexibility for the discerning elf, granting either extra reach when going for the throat, or allowing units to cautiously pick off their targets from a distance while aiming to stay safe.These are 4 power for 3 models and are essentially mounted rangers with 3 wounds each and a 4+ save riding a jetbike!

Let’s check out the estimated value for the Eldritch Omens box set and all the Eldar and Chaos Space Marines Miniatures inside.When compared to the jetbikes, the sheet is very similar with obviously fewer wounds and toughness (as they usually do with bikes). For each five Rangers, you can now take either a Gloom Field (giving a limited version of their old -1 to hit, working as Dense Cover while outside 18″) or a Wireweave Net.
