Other special characters I would consider making are a Sergeant Chronus-style Tank Commander for Yme-Loc and a Bonesinger for Il-Kaithe.

I also think that the Phoenix Lords should be more indivdual and Prince Yriel should have some special rules that affect his army somehow, for example making Wraithsight less problematic, or enhancing the Wraithguard somehow.

Though guards may sleep and ships may lay at anchor, our foes know full well that big guns never tire.

Cool ideas, I think they are really very good. Some things i would consider would be things like giving Alique Moonrunner a special rule decreasing the pathfinder upgrade cost five, to say four. I also think that because Tesis is the greatest eldar warrior since Asurmen he should have some rule like 'Martial Prowess', as to what it would do i dont know.

I'll try finding one. Anthrillen Morningchild doesn't sound too convincing, does it? Not like Prince Yriel.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Hmmm... I can't even find a name of a farseer to confirm for Yme-Loc. I'm guessing that these bonesingers are descendants / avatars of Vaul or something, like the avatars of Kaela Mensha Khaine. Still, looks quite good!
