  2. having looked at the front cover of codex:Iyanden i am wondering if the character shown is Iyanna Areinal as we were told to expect a few new characters were we not?, and who better represents Iyanden than Iyanna?

    1. That would be a lovely touch as i thought she should have stayed in the last codex

    2. absolutly agree with you and zooming in on the wraithknight picture it says that the sheild is a "scatter shield.... a potent device that project a forcefield" and the stuff on its back is "warp projectors which lighten its considerable bulk" think we all know what this means.... SUPER FAST FLYING DEATH MACHINE!!!!

  3. Wonder if we see supplements for the other craftworlds? That artwork is gorgeous

    1. Agreed, I have 0 interest in an Iyanden army or lore. Still going to buy the book, would still buy any other Craftworld specific books.

  4. I think we won't see another Craftworld supplement. The Iyanden one is just there to help selling the new wraithguards, warlocks/farseers and wraithknights.

    The more I look at the wraithknight, the less I like it. Playing Biel-Tan, I don't see why I would play one anyway.

    The flyer, on the other hand, looks quite nice from here :)

  5. Mmm true i also play biel-tan im hoping for more suppory on the aspect/autarch front (especially with wargear). I also reckon the knight is gonna be exactly like the riptide just because it reels the sales in. Tho tbh i quite like the look of it. Would look pretty sweet done up in mymeara colours

    1. Theorically, eldar knights don't bear the colours of craftworlds, they belong to titan clans (Fir Caurifel) and have their own colour scheme.

      My true fantasy concerning Biel-Tan is about the Void Spinner. I wish the new tank rumored was allowing to build it...

    1. Same here. So far I am underwhelmed by the Knight and the flyer. I hope there is another weapon loadout for the Knight where he wields a gun in both hands. The flyer looks like somebody painted a Dark Elder vehicle red.

    2. I agree, I will get one(atleast one) but I am hoping that its just the picture and it will look better live in plastic. IDK its something about the proportions that just don't look right to me. Compared to the way the WraithGuard(tho the new plastic ones might look different) Wraithlord, Revenant and Phantom Titans look, it to me doesn't seem to fit.
      Don't get me wrong I am still super excited I can't wait, I was just hoping for more from the Uber Wraith. It is probably just one of those things were I need to get it in hand.

    3. I agree, the proportions are really weird looking from the picture. Tiny head, tiny arms/hands. Legs & chest the size of a small moon.

    4. Problem is that shot is of a 3/4 view. So things are going to look very wonky until you get multiple perspectives.

  10. Werent the knights originally the protectors of the exodite worlds? Would be fun to bring in some dino riders into the army. Maybe convert out some knarloc riders for a tau allied force (or do it the other way and have the eldar as allies)
