Thanks for the fix, Phoenix.

Also, Lorek started the Fire Dragons entry (sexy!)

Karandras question: Can he confer Shadowstrike onto non-SS unit that he joins and
is there any reason to do so?

lolzman added two edits that I clarified for the Howling Banshees, but seeing
as I don't play 40k I'm curious as to why they're there.

Strengths

1. Hand to hand combat against elite troops: Meganobs, Nobz, HQs, Space Marines, monstrous creatures

[Edit]
Weaknesses

1. Hand-to-hand combat with Walkers such as the Dreadnought or mass troops such as a mob of 30 Ork Boyz

Another question: This codex is dumb and confuses me. Why aren't Warlocks
taken from the retinue for things like Guardian squads?

YO DAKKA DAKKA!

Because there's nothing to suggest that they would be, unless you're thinking of older style 'dexes.

You need a Farseer to take Warlock Squad. You don't necessarily need one to have a Warlock leading a Guardian Squad, for example, but they DO use the wargear options / point costs for wargear... Except for the Jetbike Guardian 'Lock, who already has the jetbike points added to his cost.

Jetbike rule: (+1) Toughness, 3+ cover save (when turboboosting)

Eldar Jetbikes move an additional 6" in assault.

Cause that's how they roll.

What harm can it do to find out? It's a question that left bruises down the centuries, even more than "It can't hurt if I only take one" and "It's all right if you only do it standing up." Terry Pratchett, Making Money

"Can a magician kill a man by magic?" Lord Wellington asked Strange. Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. "I suppose a magician might," he admitted, "but a gentleman never could." Susanna Clarke Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell

Thanks.

Also, thanks to whomever is doing the edits. I see Blackmoor, Tacobake, and...mysterious

The eye of terror.

Eldar jetbikes also confer a 3+ armor save on the unit equipped with them.

Yup, thanks. I'm trying to avoid numbers as much as possible for these short
articles as they're meant to be pseudo references. At some point, you should
get the feeling that you want to look at the codex.

All entries complete for 4th edition.

General notes needed for most, but someone appears to be starting out
on them.
