Your proposed stat line change is a great move forward, but I think it should be more emphasis on the skill and less on the save.<br /><br />A basic guardian should be WS4/BS: 4; while an aspect warrior should be WS/BS: 5. This would make Eldar slightly better at hitting Marines, and Marines slightly better at wounding Eldar.<br /><br />I just don't think it makes sense that these ancient races who train for thousands of years in the way of battle suck at hitting/shooting their target. An Eldar Ranger spends a 1,000 years training to be a sniper, and hits 1/3 of his shots? Dire Avengers can't even win in an assault against basic Tactical Marines. You can say an MEQ's advanced armor manipulates the wound and save rolls with the T4/<br />3+, but an Eldar should still be able to hit them relatively easily.dzer0https://www.blogger.com/profile/05801249469101932050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3733170402932421771.post-75967280861599018382010-09-28T12:19:24.158-05:002010-09-28T12:19:24.158-05:00I agree.

I would love the agility rule as elves have always been known for their quickness and agility, not brute strength or toughness. <br /><br />I also agree about the longer range on the shuriken catapult. I think the Tau have out eldared the eldar. Eldar should be like fantasy elves, with long range bow fire being a staple of their attack, combined with high dexterity in close combat.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08415148261401958420noreply@blogger.com
