Also, one of those relics might be a super-Caress, like a full body massage.

Now you too can choose between the Harlequin's Kiss, the Harlequin's Embrace, the Harlequin's Caress, the Harlequin's Grope, the Harlequin's Foot Rub, or the relic Harlequin's 3 AM Drunken Phone Call!

LOL. For some reason this makes me think of the movie Videodrome.

A few bits from the codex:

Laugh of Sorrows is hilarious.

My god. Those powers are ridiculous.

Thanks, Ace

The new GW video

It's my pleasure to be able to contribute

So....veil of tears is back......oh man....

Laugh of Sorrows is just.. I can't even... xD

And Dance of Shadows is awesome, and only 1 WC

Only Relics are kinda bummer in my opinion, Sword especially - come on, do only BA and SM are allowed to carry AP2 Power Sword or somethin...

As a primaris...

Solitaire with Crescendo, 10 bladestorm shots when blitzing?

Fog of Dreams is interesting. Essentially, it's "reverse invisibility." Still WC2, though.

Curious about Webway Walker. Is that the Command Benefit for a Masque?

Crescendo is Troupe Leader/Shadowseer only, isn't it?

This would be kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiindaaaaaa good if Crescendo wasn't only for Master and Shadowseer. Still it is only buffed Shuriken Pistol, unfortunately :(

But I can already feel the amount of Shadowseers I'd like to include in my army to make proper use of awesome psychic abilities - my wallet trembles in fear already

I am excited about the shrieker ammo back like the lore of old the it explodes their head. I am excited about a lot of this. Was hoping for more control of the web as they are the masters of it... I would like them to deepstrike without mishap like DE but c'est la vie... All looking cool.

I fully agree - all of this pleases me to the excess, I was never that happy and content about any army release, ever

Oh, and by the by - Datacards already sold out on GW

It seems they only make as many as the LE codex. lol
BTW: Have ALL the LE dexes been 200$? If so, Im glad Ive been skipping them.

Big lack of AP2 though. They really want them to rely on Kiss of Death.

And don't forget the Harlequin's Booty Call!

I'm definitely going to start an harlie army soon... using the Sin City painting scheme.

More first impressions - lots of ways to mess with Ld. Lower it with the Mask relic, then use pinning weapons or Shadowseer abilities to debuff enemies, disallow overwatch, etc.

The relics are ho-hum, but there are some interesting combos in here. Blind and Concussive interact in interesting ways, too.

Shards of Light looks like a good way to whittle down large chaff units like Guardsmen and Gaunts.

They are the servants of the laughing god after all...

I can see in play now.

"Take a leadership test"

Passes.

"Haha sucker!"

"Ok now take another"

Passes.

"Lol your powers suck!"

"Buddy you just took 3 wounds."

"Whaaaaaaat?????"

"Now who's laughing lol"

So awesome!

I know! SO STOKED!

Having Ld10 will be very hurtful at the least.

Each trouper can be armed with fusion/neuro gun. How may AP2 do you really need?

I cannot explain my joy at seeing those powers, I almost want to cry

Yes. Yes, yes, and YES!!! That all looks freaking amazing. Webway Walker in particular made me jump up and pump my fist.

Great in theory, and it's neat to see it included, but remember that almost two-thirds of the armies in the game are completely immune to it through Fearless, ATSKNF, or similar. Dark Eldar ran into the same problem.
