So the wasp phalanx detachment from doom of mymeara allows you to take 3-6 wasps as an auxilliary choice for pale courts or as a formation for other armies, but can the formation include corsair wasps or
just the standard eldar wasps?

just wanted to know because i think the corsairs one is way better and was wondering if i can take it. Also do they have to be one unit or can they be all seperate, like 3 units of one wasp?

Thanks for help!

Forgeworld's rules tend not to be as robust as Games Workshop's (which is saying something, given the common lack of robustness of Games Workshop's rules) but I think it's fairly clear you use the Eldar Wasp Assault Walker entry.

Corsair units do not have the Eldar Faction, and the Wasp Phalanx is one of the Formations for use in the Eldar Craftworld Warhost Detachment, suggesting it should be of the Eldar Faction. Also the Formation calls for 3-6 Wasp Assault Walker and the Eldar army list entry is 'Eldar Wasp Assault Walker' while the Corsair army list entry is 'Corsair Wasp Squadron'.

The Formation says nothing about them becoming one vehicle squadron, so they are independent.

That Formation is broken in that its special rules never work. They trigger when the Wasps arrive from Deepstrike, and only the Corsair version (not eligible in the formation) can get the option to Deepstrike.

As of now, the formation only functions to squeeze a few Wasps into a list that doesn't have slots available.
