pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 The ebook preview is online. The sample only has a bit of fluff. There is some nice artwork at least - not much is shown otherwise Iuchiban leaking the Codex on Warseer on the other hand - very interesting :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Any chance you could list all the benefits from the different formations? That would be awesome. Thanks. That's a big one but lets go: Guardian battlehost: Vypers, Warwalkers and Vaul's support batteries get preferred enemy if they have a unit of Guardias at 12". Guardians can purchase a Platform for free. Windrider host: Once per game all formation gets Shred when firing shuriken weapons Guardian Stormhost: Vypers, Warwalkers and Vaul's support batteries get preferred enemy if they have a unit of Guardias at 12". Storm guardians can purchase 2 special weapons for free. Seer council: They harness Warp charges with 3+. Aspect Host: They re-roll LD tests and get +1 to WS or BS. Dire Avenger Shrine: Once per game, Shuriken weapons are Assault 3. +1 to BS Crimson Death: Preferred enemy (Flying things), 4+ cover save, and if Jink, may re-roll the cover save. Wraithhost: Get battle trance, if targe is at 18" or less from spiritser, reroll to hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarlessllama Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 This all looks pretty neat. Although I wonder if this Codex replaces Codex: Eldar. They are named differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 And we were worried about scatbikes. Shuribikes with first turn shred may be worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intrizic Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Is there any change to battle focus or bladestorm?Is there any mention of how the Iyanden supplement interacts with the new codex? No changes on Battle focus of the bladestorm rule. No hints on the Iyanden codex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generalripphook Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 So will OFCC use the previous codex? Haha or will no one be able to run any wraithguard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Codex: Eldar and Craftworld Iyanden are not available on the webpage. Theory is that it replaces them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 So will OFCC use the previous codex? Haha or will no one be able to run any wraithguard? New codex? Open or Team? Open is ITC, so we are pending how ITC sides with 'D for everyone!' Team? It's gonna depend on the list. It is far enough off, I imagine they will allow the new dex though.

Sugarlessllama Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 It does replace C:E. And 'neat' is not the word I would use. I suppose. But since I don't play in tournaments, I'm not too worried about how balanced everything is. I just like to have interesting armies to pit my Space Marines against. And if the new codex makes the Eldar players happy, then more power to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like to have interesting armies to pit my Space Marines against. And if the new codex makes the Eldar players happy, then more power to them. Fair enough. That being said, many of the rest of us do play in tournaments and organized events. Heck, the forum is formed around a community for OFCC basically. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 So does the -1 on the chart mean the D-Sythes can never get the 6 result? Because it makes them more reasonable to be able to field. It means if they hit they basically kill on a +3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I think the only way I would agree to play the new book is in a normal CAD. Even then? The normal buffs are bad enough. Farseer, bikes, WK, WraithG in WSs and Vaul's in a CAD are evil. That's a lot of D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Yeah, but there will only be one Wraithknight, and none of the the formation bonuses. So... not completely terrible? 80-160 S6, 4-12 D attacks per turn, with psychic support? Yeah, that's not too bad. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Yeah... there's that. And that's not even me crunching lists, that's just throwing ideas out there. I imagine with some math it gets worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
