Armour,
Treasures of Vaul,

Lords of War Equipment,
Eldar Psychic Powers,
Runes of Battle and
Runes of Fate) used by Eldar Craftworlds, along with the rules for using them in your games of Warhammer 40,000.
Profiles for the following melee weapons can be found in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook:
| A fearsome two-handed chainsword, the biting blade is the ideal weapon for those Striking Scorpion Exarchs seeking to deliver a brutal deathblow. |
| Chainsabres are twinned chainblades mounted in ancient gauntlets that each incorporate a shuriken pistol, meaning the user can let loose a short-range fusillade as he leaps into the fray before delivering a lightning flurry of blows. |
A set of chainsabres is comprised of two weapons and hence grants a
bonus Attack.
Bladestorm:
When firing a weapon with this special rule, a
To Wound roll of a 6 wounds automatically, regardless of the target’s Toughness, and is resolved at AP2.
| These dreaded swords have a vengeful spirit stone set into their hilts. A single blow from a diresword can separate the victim’s soul from his body. |
Soulrazor:
When a model suffers one or more unsaved Wounds from this weapon, it must pass a separate
Leadership test for each Wound suffered or be removed from play.
| An executioner is an elegant, two-handed power glaive favoured by the Exarchs of the Howling Banshees. These expert melee fighters use the long-hafted blades to wreak bloody carnage across the battlefield in an instant. |
| The rudimentary sentience within the spirit stone core of each ghost weapon, whether axe, glaive or sword, empowers the blade and guides its wielder’s blows toward the vital points of his foe. |
| Used by the Shining Spears Aspect Warriors, laser lances produce built-up pulses of energy that are released with explosive force when the wielder charges the target. |
* Laser lances have two values for Strength. The first is used only on a turn in which a model charges; the second is used at all other times.
| Used in an ambidextrous sword-form by some Howling Banshee Exarchs, mirrorswords create a whirling web of steel. |
A set of mirrorswords is comprised of two weapons and hence grants a
bonus Attack.
| Twinned power weapons that fit to the forearms of the user, powerblades resemble the foreclaws of a stylised Eldar spider. |
A set of powerblades is comprised of two weapons and hence grants a

Bladestorm:
When firing a weapon with this special rule, a
To Wound roll of a 6 wounds automatically, regardless of the target’s Toughness, and is resolved at AP2.
| When hurled by an Eldar psyker, a singing spear can sunder both armour and flesh, and will always return to its wielder. |
| The star lance is a far more powerful version of the Shining Spears Aspect’s ritual weapon. When a Shining Spear Exarch’s charge hits home, even vehicle armour is not immune to his strike. |
* Star lances have two values for Strength. The first is used only on a turn in which a model charges; the second is used at all other times.
| An arcane throwing weapon used by Howling Banshee Exarchs, the triskele has three razorsharp blades that slice through an enemy’s armour as a knife cuts through paper. A wellthrown triskele will curve back to its owner in time for the real killing to start. |
| Those struck by a psychically-charged witch staff risk having their very soul set aflame, even if their bodies are not broken. |
Profiles for the following ranged weapons can be found in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook:
| It is a testament to the idiocy of Man that he creates plasma weapons that frequently maim or kill the wielder. Starcannons and suncannons have no such flaw, their plasma cores producing the heat of a star while the guns remains cool to the touch. |
| The most dangerous of all Eldar weapons enable their user to open a portal to the Warp. Often called D-weapons, these technological terrors collapse an area of the material universe. Whether the rift is localised or dispersed, the result is invariably fatal for those nearby. |
Distort Scythe:
When rolling on the
Destroyer Weapon Attack table for a weapon that has this special rule, subtract 1 from the result of the D6 roll (to a minimum of 1). Furthermore, a weapon with this special rule is assumed to have a Strength of 4 for the purposes of the
No Escape rule and of determining if a hit has the
Instant Death special rule.
| Eldar missile launchers are elegant and well-balanced. They use complex chambered pods that contain several different kinds of ammunition, all but eliminating the need to reload in battle. |
| Fusion weapons cause the molecules of the target to hyper-vibrate, generating so much heat that the victim bursts into flames before suddenly liquefying and then evaporating into nothingness. |
| Eldar lasers use psychically grown crystals to refine the already intense bursts to their optimum potency. Many Eldar consider the laser weapon the most elegant of all, exulting in the fact that their technological mastery extends even to light itself. |
| Many Eldar units use monofilament weapons, all of which work in a similar fashion by creating a dense monofilament mesh from a complex organo-polymer compound. This is released through thousands of microscopic firing ducts and woven into a net of monofilament wire by spinning gravity clamps. The victim’s own struggles bring about his doom, for the razor-net is so sharp it can reduce an entangled enemy to bloody chunks of flesh in seconds. |
Monofilament:
When
rolling To Wound for a weapon that has this special rule, use the target’s Initiative instead of its Toughness (note that the model’s Toughness is still used to determine whether an attack has the
Instant Death special rule). In addition, if a 6 is rolled To Wound when attacking with a weapon that has this special rule, the Wound is resolved at AP2 unless the weapon is AP1.
| Typically mounted on Fire Prisms, prism cannons greatly amplify the power of a highintensity laser through priceless psychocrystal to generate a devastating blast. This can be focussed into a narrow beam or widened to destroy a broader area at will. |
| Ranger long rifles are precision implements, accurate enough pick out weak points in a target’s armour even at extreme distances. |
| Used to deadly effect by Dark Reaper Aspect Warriors, reaper launchers fire a fusillade of armour-piercing starswarm missiles. Some Dark Reapers also make use of the more powerful starshot missiles, which have a lower rate of fire, but allow them to engage enemy tanks and fortifications with impunity. |

| Shuriken weapons fire monomolecular bladed discs at an astonishing rate, each near invisible to the naked eye but hard enough to scythe through the foe with ease. These instruments of war are capable of firing up to a hundred shuriken in just a few seconds, a series of high-energy impulses originating at the rear of the weapon to propel the small but deadly projectiles through the barrel at terrific speed. Shuriken weapons come in many shapes and sizes, from the shuriken pistols carried by assault troops to the tank-mounted shuriken cannons utilised by the Engines of Vaul. |
Bladestorm:
When firing a weapon with this special rule, a
To Wound roll of a 6 wounds automatically, regardless of the target’s Toughness, and is resolved at AP2.
| Dark Reaper Exarchs sometimes employ tempest launchers that hurl explosives high into the air and then land amongst the foe, allowing these merciless Eldar to obliterate several targets at once. |
| Vibro cannons project rising sonic waves that do immeasurable harm. A vehicle hit by a vibro cannon shakes violently before collapsing into shattered fragments, whilst troops are thrown to the ground, coughing up blood and pulverised innards. |
Vibro:
For each model in the same unit after the first that scores at least 1 hit on the target unit with a weapon that has this special rule, add 1 to the Strength (to a maximum of 10) and subtract 1 from the AP (to a minimum of 1) of each hit for that round of shooting. For example, if three models in a unit all score hits on the same target unit with weapons that have this special rule, all hits would be resolved at +2 Strength and -2AP.
| Aspect armour is made of psycho-reactive material that reacts to the movements of the wearer, providing excellent, unhindered protection as it moulds and shapes to fit the wearer. |
Aspect armour confers a 4+
Armour Save.
| Incorporating thick armoured plates but retaining great flexibility, this armour is amongst the best in the known galaxy. |
Heavy Aspect armour confers a 3+
Armour Save.
| Mesh armour is comprised of thousands of tiny pieces of thermoplas that harden on impact to form effective, lightweight protection. |
Mesh armour confers a 5+
Armour Save.
| The legendary Phoenix Lords wear ancient, invaluable Aspect armour so finely wrought it is proof against almost any weapon. These suits are studded with spirit stones, each of which contains the soul of an Exarch that has been incorporated into the Phoenix Lord’s gestalt spirit. |
Phoenix armour confers a 2+
Armour Save.
| Eldar psykers fashion themselves elegant armour decorated with wraithbone runes. Said to pulse in time with the wearer’s heartbeat, rune armour offers protection against attacks both spiritual and physical in nature. |
Rune armour confers a 4+
invulnerable save.
Profiles for the following treasures of vaul can be found in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook:
| These amplify the Eldar’s battle cry, inflicting psychic paralysis. |
A model equipped with a banshee mask causes
Fear. In addition, models cannot fire
Overwatch against units that contain at least one model equipped with a banshee mask.
| Eldar jetbikes are swift, graceful mounts that enable their riders to soar across the battlefield raining death upon their foes. |
A model riding an Eldar jetbike has a 3+
Armour Save and a
twin-linked shuriken catapult. Their unit type also changes to
Eldar Jetbike.
| These powerful shield projectors can deflect almost any blow. |
A model with a forceshield has a 4+
invulnerable save.
| A ghosthelm conceals the presence of the wearer in the Warp. |
If a model with a ghosthelm suffers an unsaved Wound from
Perils of the Warp, he can prevent it by immediately expending a
Warp Charge point (if he has one).
| Grenade packs enable Swooping Hawks to drop explosives onto their victims as they soar overhead or dive down to the earth. |
Any time a unit with a grenade pack enters play by
Deep Strike and does not suffer a
Deep Strike mishap, nominate one model in the unit immediately after it arrives. That model can make a single special shooting attack in the
Movement phase with the profile below – this represents the unit’s grenade pack attack. A unit that fires grenade packs in the Movement phase can still shoot in the subsequent
Shooting phase; however, it must target the same target unit if possible.
Skyburst:
This shooting attack does not need
line of sight. If the unit consists of at least six models with a
grenade pack, the attack has the
Large Blast special rule instead of the
Blast special rule.
| With the help of cunningly wrought anti-grav platforms, Eldar Guardians bring heavy fire support to the fight. |
One Guardian from the same unit as, and within 2" of, a Heavy Weapon Platform may fire the platform instead of his
shuriken catapult, counting as having the
Relentless special rule. If there are no Guardians left in the unit, remove the heavy weapons platform as a casualty. Weapons platform models are ignored when allocating Wounds from
Look Out, Sir rolls.
| Mandiblasters spit needle shards that channel a deadly laser blast. |
During the
Fight sub-phase, at the start of the
Initiative 10 step, roll a D6 for each model equipped with mandiblasters. On a result of 4+, an enemy unit that is engaged with the model (attacking player’s choice) suffers a single Wound (
saving throws can be taken as normal).
Gargantuan Creatures suffer a Wound on a result of 6+ instead of 4+. If a
character equipped with mandiblasters is fighting in a
challenge, the Wound must be allocated to his opponent.
| Mounted in the helmet vanes of the Dark Reapers are highly advanced targeters that calculate telemetries in the blink of an eye. |
Enemies cannot take
Jink saves against shots fired by a model equipped with a reaper rangefinder.
| Used to protect precious Eldar war-constructs, scattershields are gigantic fan-shaped shield generators that convert the energy of incoming attacks into blinding sprays of multicoloured light. |
The bearer has a 5+
invulnerable save. Whenever the bearer passes one or more
saving throws using its scattershield, all enemy units within 6" must test as if they had just been hit by a weapon with the
Blind special rule.
| This advanced field generator projects a glittering force field to protect both the user and the warriors who accompany him. |
The bearer and his unit have a 5+
invulnerable save.
| Swooping Hawk wings utilise jet propulsion motors and anti-grav lifters hidden among their metallic feathers that enable their wearers to soar high above the battlefield. |
A model equipped with Swooping Hawk wings gains the
Jump unit type. When a unit composed entirely of models equipped with Swooping Hawk wings uses its jump packs in the
Movement phase, it can move up to 18" instead of 12". Furthermore, the unit can choose to Skyleap instead of moving in the Movement phase, as long as it did not
arrive from Reserves that turn and is not
locked in combat or
Falling Back. A Skyleaping unit is removed from the board and placed into
Ongoing Reserve.
| Wearing a bulbous Warp jump generator, an Eldar can make brief journeys through the Warp. Though this is an extremely dangerous tactic, it grants the wearer a distinct tactical edge. |
A model equipped with a Warp jump generator gains the
Jet Pack unit type. In the
Movement phase, a unit composed entirely of models equipped with Warp jump generators can choose to either move as
Jet Pack Infantry or make a
Warp jump. If making a
Warp jump, it immediately moves up to 2D6+6" in any direction (roll once per unit each turn), ignoring all intervening terrain and models. This move ignores
dangerous terrain. If the 2D6 roll is a double 1, one member of the unit (
randomly determined) is removed as a casualty.
Warp jump cannot be used when the unit is
Falling Back.
Remnants of Glory are items of incredible rarity and power, each one an echo of the ancient Eldar empire’s might. Only one of each of the following relics may be chosen per army.
A model can replace one weapon with one of the following. Only one of each
Remnant of Glory may be taken per army.
1 Farseer or Spiritseer only.
2 Does not replace one of the character’s weapons.
| The masterwork runic patterns covering Eldrad’s breastplate are powerful wards against harm. |
The Armour of the Last Runes confers a 3+
invulnerable save.
| The Silent Death is a triskele whose edges were forged in the anti-flame of the Warp, and the Blade of Destruction is an exquisite weapon from before the Fall. |
| When Eldanesh fell battling Khaine, the great falcon Faolchú was disconsolate. Faolchú gifted a single golden pinfeather to Eldanesh’s heirs, that perhaps its swiftness might aid them where her own had failed. Legend tells that this artefact is that selfsame token of grief, handed down through generations of Eldar, and surviving even the tumult of the Fall. |
A model with Faolchú’s Wing can
Run up to 48" in its
Shooting phase, provided that it did not manifest any psychic powers or shoot this turn. If it does so it cannot shoot or charge for the remainder of the turn. However, the model can re-roll failed
cover saves until the start of its next turn.
| This ancient weapon glows red with the heat of its forging. Massive in size and yet still possessed of the alien elegance typical to the works of Vaul, the Fire Axe has never cooled since the day it was made, and the runes on its surface constantly writhe in blazing agony. |
| Many legends speak of Draoch-var, the great drake whose ethereal fires reduced the great forests of Velorn to inert ash, and whose wrathful strength toppled the pillars of the Temple of Isha. Reputedly, this sword was forged from Draoch’s razored fang in celebration of Ulthanesh’s victory. It burns with a fury that can never be quenched, and its fire spreads like a living thing. |
Wildfire:
Whenever the
Firesabre’s Soul Blaze rule inflicts one or more unsaved Wounds, roll a D6 for every unit (friend or foe, but excluding the bearer’s unit) within 6" of the unit that suffered the Wound. On a roll of 4+, that unit is set ablaze as per the Soul Blaze special rule (this Soul Blaze does not benefit from the Wildfire special rule).
| Eldar myth recounts of when Kurnous hunted across the stars and fashioned an arrow specific to each prey he sought. When loosed from his bow, these slaying missiles would seek out the weakness in their target, finding gaps in defences to reach the soft flesh beneath. Kurnous’ Bow is a shuriken pistol created long ago in honour of these ancient tales. Its psycho-sympathetic ammunition reacts to the vulnerabilities of the foe, turning a shot that should have merely wounded into a killing blow. |
| This precursor to the Banshee mask turns its wearer’s war cry into a mind-shredding sonic barrage. |
Models cannot fire
Overwatch against
Jain Zar or a unit she has joined, and enemy models within 6" of Jain Zar subtract 5 from their Weapon Skill and Initiative (to a minimum of 1).
| When Kaela Mensha Khaine slew Eldanesh, he took the sword Anaris and claimed it as his own. When Khaine was shattered in battle with Slaanesh, Anaris too was splintered, the fragments of both blade and wielder coming to rest within the craftworlds. Legend tells that the Shard of Anaris was then crafted into a blade to be borne by the Eldar’s mightiest warriors. |
Vaul’s Work:
The bearer of this weapon has the
Fearless special rule. In a
challenge, Attacks made with this weapon have the
Fleshbane and
Instant Death special rules.
| This ancient force staff forms a hyperspatial link with Ulthwé’s infinity circuit, and the power held therein. |
Spiritlink:
Whenever
Eldrad Ulthran successfully passes a
Psychic test, roll a D6. On a score of 5 or 6, he immediately generates a
Warp Charge point.
| This monocular device is able to send a searing storm of lightning into those under Prince Yriel’s gaze, blasting through armour and flesh in a blazing flash. |
One use only. In the
Fight sub-phase, provided he is not in a
challenge,
Prince Yriel can make a special attack at his
Initiative step instead of making any close combat attacks. Centre a
large blast marker over Prince Yriel; all units (friend or foe) suffer a number of Strength 6 AP3 hits equal to the number of models from their unit at least partially under the
template (excluding Prince Yriel). Only unsaved Wounds caused to enemy units count towards
combat resolution.
| The Maugetar is a scythe-like weapon built into an adapted shrieker-pattern shuriken cannon. |
Bio-cataclysm:
If a non-vehicle model is slain as a result of this weapon, centre the
large blast marker over that model before removing the model as a casualty. Units suffer a number of Strength 5 AP4 hits equal to the number of models from that unit that are under the marker. These hits have the
Ignores Cover special rule.
| At the height of the War in Heaven, Asuryan himself was laid low by the chill blades of his foes. To save her beloved, Isha drew down the heat of a hundred stars into a glittering gem. The light and heat that had once nurtured countless planets drove the unnatural chill from the Phoenix King’s bones and returned him to his people and his consort. It is said that the Phoenix Gem is the only surviving fragment of this ancient stone. Even now, millions of years hence, it can still return life to the fallen... |
One use only. Immediately before the bearer of the Phoenix Gem is removed as a casualty, roll a D6. On a score of 1, remove the model as a casualty. On a score of 2-6, centre the
large blast marker over the model. Each unit (friend or foe) suffers a number of Strength 4 AP5 hits equal to the number of models from their unit, excluding the bearer, that are at least partially under the
template. If at least one unsaved Wound is caused, the bearer is not removed as a casualty, but remains in play with a single Wound remaining. If no unsaved Wounds are caused, remove the model as a casualty.
| The Scorpion’s Bite is a vastly superior mandiblaster constructed in ancient times. The helm-weapons of Karandras’ Striking Scorpion disciples are nothing compared to the fearsome artefact worn by this Phoenix Lord. Many are the foes felled by the Scorpion’s Bite, struck down in a blaze of burning energy before they have raised their weapons in defence. |
During the
Fight sub-phase, at the start of the
Initiative 10 step, roll a D6. On a result of 2+, an enemy unit that is engaged with
Karandras suffers a single Wound, with no
armour saves allowed.
Gargantuan Creatures suffer a Wound with no armour saves allowed on a result of 4+ instead of 2+. If Karandras is in a
challenge, this Wound must be allocated to his opponent.
| Legend tells that Baharroth’s sword was forged by the daughters of Vaul in the dying fires of a supernova, and that some of that long-gone star’s astral might lives on in its blade. Those the sword judges as impure find their own blinding reflections burnt painfully into their eyes. |
| It is said that this accursed spear contains the energies of a dying sun. |
Cursed:
When
locked in combat,
Prince Yriel must re-roll
saving throws of 6.
The Spirit Stone of Anath’lan
| Anath’lan was once one of Craftworld Biel-Tan’s most skilled Farseers. Alas, pride caused him to misread the runes, dooming a maiden world to a bitter demise. Unable to forgive himself, Anath’lan died of grief. His spirit stone refused to bond with the infinity circuit, and to this day guides other Eldar away from error. |
Every time the bearer of the Spirit Stone of Anath’lan attempts to
manifest a psychic power, he can choose to reduce the Warp Charge cost by 1 (to a minimum of 1). If he does so, he cannot use his
rune armour’s invulnerable save until the start of his next turn.
| This diresword, the first of its kind, contains the spirit stone of Asurmen’s long-dead brother Tethesis, that he might continue the fight against the minions of the Great Enemy until the end of time. |
Soulrazor:
When a model suffers one or more unsaved Wounds from this weapon, it must pass a separate
Leadership test for each Wound suffered or be removed from play.
| Known to the Eldar as the Suin Daellae, the Wailing Doom is a shrieking blade many feet long that sends out murderous bolts of force as the Avatar strides to war and reaps a brutal tally at close quarters. |
| Uldanoreth was an outcast whose wanderlust drove him to tread the stars. He braved the dangers of a thousand worlds, surviving only on his wits and ingenuity. Whilst on his long journeys, Uldanoreth perfected the art of the long-range attack, and crafted a formidable weapon capable of sniping enemies from incredible distances. |
| Illic’s Warp-tearing long rifle is said to contain the essence of the ancient warrior-smith Uldanoreth. |
Voidshot:
When
rolling To Wound for a weapon that has this special rule, a roll of 6 causes a Wound with the
Instant Death special rule. When making an
Armour Penetration roll for a weapon that has this special rule, a roll of 6 causes a
penetrating hit, regardless of the
vehicle’s Armour Value.
| Utilising advanced scanner technologies, this targeting matrix allows pinpoint fire even when on the move. |
One use only. A non-Walker
vehicle with this upgrade can fire one weapon, at the vehicle’s full Ballistic Skill, after
moving Flat Out in the
Shooting phase.
| A ghostwalk matrix utilises the knowledge and wisdom contained within a spirit stone to guide the vehicle on its path. |
A
vehicle with this upgrade has the
Move Through Cover special rule.
| Harnessing kinetic energy to shimmer and distort the vehicle’s silhouette, holo-fields prevent the foe from accurately targeting the craft as it sweeps across the battlefield. |
A
vehicle with holo-fields has a 5+
invulnerable save unless it is
Immobilised.
| The multi-finned pod under the cockpit of a Hemlock Wraithfighter allows the psyker within to project the cold aura of the dead. |
Enemy models within 12" of a model equipped with a mindshock pod subtract 2 from their Leadership when taking
Morale,
Pinning and
Fear tests.
| Power fields reroute a portion of the vehicle’s energy supply to project a glimmering shield of protection around the vehicle. |
A model with this upgrade has a 5+
invulnerable save.
| When the Eldar Wave Serpents advance, they do so behind powerful shields. These can be discharged to unleash a bow wave of raw force that blasts the enemy from their feet. |
All
penetrating hits inflicted against the front or side armour of a
vehicle equipped with a serpent shield are downgraded to
glancing hits on a D6 roll of 2+.
Once per game, the serpent shield can be used as a weapon in the
controlling player’s Shooting phase, with the profile below. This is treated as a hull-mounted weapon that is pointing forward.
For the remainder of the battle after the shooting attack has been resolved, all subsequent hits against the vehicle are treated as though the vehicle was not equipped with a serpent shield.
| Some Eldar vehicles incorporate large spirit stones with a captive animus that can control the vehicle should it be disabled. |
A
vehicle with this upgrade ignores
Crew Shaken results on a roll of 2+ and
Crew Stunned results on a roll of 4+. Roll immediately when the result is suffered.
| Whilst all Eldar vehicles are swift and agile, those that mount star engines are often able to move faster than the eye can follow. Lesser races can only marvel at the phenomenal speed and manoeuvrability of a craft so equipped. |
A non-Walker
vehicle with this upgrade can move up to 24" when
moving Flat Out. A Walker with this upgrade instead
Runs an additional 3" (this will normally be D6+3").
| Vectored engines allow the pilot of an Eldar vehicle to rapidly alter its facing, placing deadly weapons, or stronger armour, to the fore. Often, this can mean the difference between sustaining critical damage and taking an indirect blow that can soon be shrugged off. |
Unless it is
Immobilised, a
vehicle with this upgrade can pivot to face any direction immediately after resolving its shooting attack (in the
Shooting phase).

| The Farseer summons an astral doppelganger and unleashes it upon the foe. This vengeful apparition carves a path through the enemy’s ranks, each kill spurring it on as it rips apart flesh in a blaze of psychic energy. |

Executioner is a
focussed witchfire power with a range of 24". The target suffers 3 hits, resolved at the
Psyker’s Strength with the
Fleshbane special rule and AP`-`. If the target is removed from play as a result, another model in the same unit suffers 2 hits as described above. If the second target is slain, a third and final model in the same unit suffers 1 hit as described above.
If the
Psyker chose the first target model, he can choose the second and third target models. If the first target model was chosen
randomly, then the second and third target models must also be chosen randomly. If at any point a target survives, or there are no models left in the target’s unit, the power’s effects end.
2
| With a simple manipulation of that which is to come, the Farseer grants a darkened fate to a chosen foe. While this shadow rests upon the enemy’s soul, death seeks them out above all others, each blow or shot that comes their way rendered inescapably lethal. |
Warp Сharge:

Doom is a
malediction that targets a single enemy unit within 24". If the target is a non
vehicle unit, all failed
To Wound rolls made against the target can be re-rolled whilst this power is in effect. If the target is a vehicle, all failed
Armour Penetration rolls made against it can be re-rolled whilst this power is in effect.

| Sensing an approaching crux of destiny, the Farseer summons the certainty and confidence of ancient days, steeling his own mind against the horror of death even as he brings this fate to his foes. Doubt and fear are washed away from the psyker’s mind, those nearby gaining grim resolve from his aura of indomitability. Even psychic powers find little purchase upon their minds. |
Warp Сharge:

Will of Asuryan is a
blessing that targets the
Psyker. Whilst the power is in effect, the Psyker and all friendly units within 12" of the Psyker have the
Fearless and
Adamantium Will special rules.
4
| The Farseer scries possible futures to foresee imminent danger, then aids his allies in avoiding it. The terrors of the Warp recoil from the psyker’s mind, while shots pass through thin air where Eldar warriors stood but a moment before. |
Warp Сharge:

Fortune is a
blessing that targets a single friendly unit within 24". Whilst the power is in effect, the target can re-roll all failed
saving throws and
Deny the Witch rolls.
5
| The Farseer reaches out to attack the mind of an enemy in a desperate mental duel. Foes find their thoughts invaded by the crushing presence of the Farseer, his ancient and inscrutable will extinguishing their personality with horrific ease, triggering a cascade of psychosomatic trauma. |
Warp Сharge:

Mind War is a
focussed witchfire power with a range of 24". Both the
Psyker and the target model roll a D6 and add their respective Leadership values. If the scores are drawn, the target model suffers a -1 penalty to its Weapon Skill and Ballistic Skill until the end of the following turn. If the Psyker’s score is higher, the target also suffers a number of Wounds equal to the difference between the two scores. No
armour or
cover saves are allowed against Wounds caused by Mind War.
6
| The Farseer summons a swirling corona of energy that assails the foe with bolts of lightning and psychic shock waves. Entire platoons are devastated beneath the onslaught of the roiling tempest as the Farseer channels more and more power into his storm of destruction. |
