The Shadow Spectres Aspect Warrior Squad


And

Eldar Warp Hunter
http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/ELDAR-WARP-HUNTER.html

Sweet zombie jesus, that's right the hell out of nowhere!

Shadow Spectres preordered. Those are gonna be a blast to paint.

Holy moly, those are beautifull...........

btw just read the rules, jet packs give the relentless rule?
Never knew that.

You're not kidding!

Those both look absolutely awesome though, seriously great looking models. *wolf whistles*

I like the Warp Hunter. I'd like the Shadow Spectres if they were in plastic, and less likely to have flimsy, load bearing tabards snap.

Very cool. Really like the Warp Hunter. Not too bad a price for FW either. Might have to pick one up.

Wow....those are awesome, and the rules don't seem that bad.

Man, those shadow spectres are amazing.... If GW made them, they'd probably be falling all over the place. Hopefully FW fixes that

Very nice looking, I'd use the Warp Hunter for a Fireprism in normal games.

Too bad the Spectres rules are craptacular.

Both looking really good, the warphunter is a great looking *cheap for fw* eldar tank lol! lets hope they release more pocket friendly vehicles

Wish they would fix the link to rules on the tank.

Times like this, I miss having my eldar army :(

It's entirely possible they don't have the experimental rules for the tank ready yet, hence the inactive link.

Shadow Spectres are Heavy Support? Eldar players - will they make it into your army?

Yes indeed - "load bearing loinclothes" are a terrible idea, especially in resin!

Still - nice models!

If you look at them from the rear, it appears that the tabards are actually attached to the stone plinths.

So it may not be that bad of an idea.

Maybe. I like the models except the heads a little. The experimental rules look cool as well. If I'm reading it correctly the entire unit can shoot a single 60" S10 AP2 Lance. I like the Ghostlight rule it's pretty unique.
I may even get a few to try and make a more interesting Seer Council with eventually.

And if the Exarch takes the Cynosure Warrior Power, they can reroll failed Ghostlight attacks.

It's definitely a very interesting unit, especially given that you can theoretically get the full powered blast without the Exarch firing too.

hmm, a duo of very cool looking models. once again, i wish forgeworld had to ok gw's designs as i wonder what the stormraven would have looked like if FW had designed it instead. at least the eldar get a super cool looking tank and it seems quite resonably priced too. it's 5 pounds (sorry, i don't know how you brits type the stylized L) LESS than the stormraven and its a complete resin/plastic kit.

i'm quite surprised about the holofields on the spectres though.... i would have given them 3+ armor due to the look of the figs instead.

Those 2 on the left look like a pretty bad idea, actually!

I know, but the weakest link still looks like the cross-section of the tabard.

*shrug*

I'll give my review when I get them

Damn you Forge World for taking all of my discretional income!

Good God, they look astounding! Great to see a viable alternative to Fire Dragons; I never usually touch Forgeworld, but even I'm sorely tempted by these...

Where's christmas or birthdays when you need them. University has made me poor.

beautiful minis... gotta love FW infantry

Warphunter link fixed:
http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/W/Warp-Hunter.pdf

Good call Baragash!

Wowza, I would definitely take a Warphunter in that case! Jeeze! I do love a good D-cannon.
Shame they've just added two more units to the Eldar heavy support slot though.

A D-cannon’s attacks bypass power fields and void shields.

That's going to make the Warp Hunter one hell of a power titan killer in that case...

wowzers, having just started an Eldar army this news makes me happy. Those Shadow Spectres Aspect Warriors look really good, nice work Forge World.
