Since they look like they're about the right size for their knights, they'll probably look like bobble heads?

Considering the size those are bigger than normal Wraithlords ones, maybe similar to Wraithknight one or sligthy smaller

**Tricktock**

Neverending Story up in this!

**ImAGeek**

Freaking lovely. The Eldar aesthetic is gorgeous.

Spoiler:

The Webway Gate will be accompanying the release of Codex: Harlequins. We’re happy to confirm that this codex, alongside Codex: Deathwatch, will be out in May, and we’ll be running extensive previews on both as we get ready for them to go on pre-order.

this is awesome. I hope there will be more so we can build a craftworld table.

Agree. 100%! More Xenos terrain!

We need more xenos models in general!

**HorticulusDK**

Great ! This portal makes my Chaos Daemons vs Adeptus Custodes "War in the Webway" diorama even more likely !

**Galef**

Finally decent Eldar Terrain instead of those lame swamp ruins

**Frozen Ocean**

I love how that Wraithknight is standing there all "Woah, hold on now!".

**Eldarain**

That is a brilliant terrain piece. Now let's get some plastic Tyranid infeststion going.

**pm713**

I wish Nids had more terrain in the lore. Like Zerg creep. I love creep.

**Eldarain**

I like that the Sporocyst is kinda like a creep tumor. More of that would be very welcome..

**Nevelon**

We have any guesses on the price? That’s a lot of plastic, but terrain kits tend to be less then models.

I wouldn’t be opposed to adding that to my table, but am very stingy with the hobby budget...

**Porphyrius**

Wow, gorgeous! I definitely wasn't expecting something that large.

Now hurry up and give me Harlequin details, damnit!

**Lythrandire Biehrellian**

I see nd both the massive desire to own that terrain piece, and the want for more rules details for my clown ninja thesbians.

**Chikout**

So this week's preorders are Deepkin plus other stuff. It seems highly likely that next week's preorder will be Deepkin plus a codex. We will find out on Sunday but I am pretty confident that the Harlequins will be up next.

**Geifer**

Good to see more Xenos terrain. We need more of that.

I had no opinion on the matter prior to seeing the picture so I can only speak in retrospect, but it makes sense that GW would make a gate that can fit the largest plastic Eldar kit they make. It's a bit sad that its size removes any incentive to build a limboing Wraithknight, though.

**CoteazRox**

That gate is looking very good. I could imagine three of the "half-portals" arranged in circular way 120 degrees from each other for a super-gateway.

Now it would be amazing if GW would put out some modular Aeldari houses like the imperial ones.

Edit: Dying for some info on the new Harlies!

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

The more I look at it, the more I like it.

Just a shame I don’t play Pointy Ears!

I do play pointy ears.

As much as I love this & want more plastic Aeldari scenery, they are not the plastics we really need.....

Try wraith knight...

**reds8n**

.. actually I heard a little rumour a while back that the terrain sections in the GW stores were going to be scrapped/removed and the future terrain kits would all be folded into the various ranges as new kits were released -- bit like the Tau fortifications, the recent nurgle tree and, presumably, this warpgate.

**H.B.M.C.**

You mean linking terrain to armies, rather than just 'generic terrain'?

It makes a lot of sense when you think about it. You have things like the Wall of Martyrs line that could have been in the Guard book, the Tidewall stuff, this Webway, the Sporocyst, and the Gnarlmaw.

**pm713**

Makes it a bit irritating to find just terrain though. I don't want to spend time digging through every range to find terrain.

**silverstu**

I hope there is more eldar terrain to come with the Webway gate - but that looks gorgeous and big. Army themed terrain would be great- I'd love some for Nids too.

**Oguhmek**

Maybe a Tellyporta together with the Ork codex? Or a Waaagh totem?

God please. I will get a credit card and sign it over to GW for use whenever I want if they do that!

I'd be amused to see what they do for Necrons, since the Monolith and Gauss Pylon basically already are terrain pieces.

Theres no such thing as "generic terrain", just Imperial one. (I know, I know, by the structure of the universe, to invade imperial planets is the default setting)
