    Any cool things you want Eldar to do?

    Darkjedi, Maestrorobertus and I are working on a new mod for the Eldar. Most of the mod has been worked out. Post here though if you have something that you've always wanted Eldar to do. If its reasonable and fits in, it might make it in.

    Please know though that we can't make all 9 of the aspects or anything like that. Mostly what I or Darkjedi can code.

    Would this be abilities and tweaking for what we already have?

    Likely, I can make new units, just that the number of models we can make are limited...and animations...

    THE ELDAR REVENANT TITAAAAAN!!!!!
    DUAL MISSLE LAAAAUNCHERS
    DUAL PULSERS
    COME SEE IT MONDAY, MONDAY, SOMEDAAAAY!

    15 Vehicle cap
    Requires pilot. (Maybe you would think about using a special unit who also costs a good amount of population, A mean nasty number like 3. So it would throw off neat and organized armies, So in other words its not as necessary as an Avatar)
    It would be the demonilisher of Moral!
    Dual Pulsers and rockets! Think Whirlwinds and Eldar D-Cannons on one bad ass looking robot.
    Its downside though would be of course its a vehicle so rockets take it down fast, And it would have a somewhat low Hp and low melee attack or none at all (It could stomp and kick)

    How about a Farseer upgrade that allows her to SEE FARTHER. give her the largest sight radius, or a reveal all like the green orky wolf guy in another game (everyone knows the game i speak of). Maugan Ra.

    Actually, I agree with Nevin. We want the Revenant Titan instead of the Avatar. After all, the Orks have got the Squiggoth. Of couse, you'd have to scale it down just a wee bit and make it just a bit less tough than the Squiggoth. But we'd all be pleased to see it.

    What I really want to see here is Jetbikes and Dire Avengers. Jetbikes because they just say 'ELDAR' and are so much better than Vypers. Dire Avengers because Guardians are just so weak - Eldar need to pack more punch (why don't we just get rid of the Guardians completely and have an 'aspect' army). Black Guardians or Guardian Storm Squads might also be a welcome addition.

    Danke.

    would have to agreee w/abyss. If you want modles for these guys all you would have to do is animate, theres a post somewhere here that is giving them away to be finished.

    EDIT: Heres the link
    Eldar Models

    i think you should speak to 'gadom' as he's got quite a way with the harliquins although vehicles and aspects are nessary for an eldar army

    I consider impalling units on a sword pretty vicious. As for the animation, don't go there sister...unhun!

    Well the Avatar could so with being more swift and graceful, + a bit faster. The Bloodthirster has an ability to fly - maybe give the Avatar an ability? He needs to be immune to hot stuff like flame and plasma as per the fluff.

    Wraithguard as another unit.

    Would obviously love to see more Aspects, but as we're not gonna do too much here, I think ontop of Wraithguard, could make the Falcon as expensive as a Fire Prism but increase the armour to match and give it a Brightlance option as well as its starcannon option.

    As the proud owner of a Revenant myself I would love to see one of these ingame....

    Suggestion:

    HP: 9000
    Requisition: 4000
    Power: 3000
    Starting weapon: Twin-link Eldar missile launchers (do the same amount of damage as a lascannon per missile. Shoot two out per 'shot')
    Upgrade: Twin-linked Pulsars: Slow rate of fire but massive damage against everything
    Melee damage should be high because it can stomp n' squish
    Moral damage should be devastating

    Wraithguard would be cool as well.....

    Your wrong about the size there.... they aren't that big. Not like some of the Titans out there.

    If you were to adjust the size so it was about three times the size of a Wraithlord.... speaking of which you could use the wraithlord as a placeholder :P

    Some kind of ranged attack for the Avatar might be nice, as is described in the Shadowpoint novel.

    You're right there AdamBomb - anyway, you could always scale it down a bit. look on Forgeworld. As for the stats you thought up - maybe a wee bit less powerful and we're there. And of course, it must fly and be graceful - just like in the fluff.

    There's nothing better when playing Eldar on TT than having a Revenant - it's cheap compared to the other titans and for the opponent it is still brown-trousers time.

    The Revanat is about the size of a Warhound... that'd still be pretty big

    Suggestion #2:

    HP: 8000
    Requisition: 4000
    Power: 3000
    Starting weapon: Twin-link Eldar missile launchers (do the same amount of damage as a lascannon per missile. Shoots 1 per shot. Moderator loading time)
    Upgrade: Twin-linked Pulsars: Slow rate of fire but massive damage against vehicles and buildings. Very good damage against everything else
    Melee damage should be high because it can stomp n' squish
    Moral damage should be devastating
    Can 'jump' like the Bloodthirster. 3 jumps before bar is depleted. 2 minute waiting time before meter refills.
    'Gravitic boosters' : Like fleet of foot but on a Titanic scale

    I don't think DoW is the right kinda game for titans. It's more small unit, vechicle and monster based.

    I think you guys are blowing the Titan up a bit. When I said put it in the game. I wasn't thinking 8000 hp and all that stuff.

    Require Limit 1 + 10 Vehicle cap
    HP: 5450
    Requisition: 4500
    Power: 4000
    Starting weapon: It would start with dual Rocket launchers (Would act like Whirlwind missles), Instead of Pulsers just yet, It would have dual plasma grenade launcher (The little things that bend next to its elbows)
    Upgradable weapons: Pulser Cannon (Same Effect as an Eldar D-Cannon)
    It would be very effective at Moral, Decent against vehicles, And Lower then average in close combat.

    My idea is it to be a support unit. Not some one you send up in the front lines to sponge Damage. *CoughAvatarCough*

    And yes I know thats not true to Fluff, But who gives a shit.

    I'm not blowing the Revenant up its just that really a Revenant would be far better than even the stats I posted.... but then again as someone has pointed this game isn't made for Titans....

    Exactly, Why the Revenant calls for a much more scaled down status.
    So in the game the Eldar player has some options to go for.

    Well the Revenant Titan seems too big for any dow maps...but it would be ideal for the epic40k mod I think. Rescaling is a good idea, but then it is no longer a titan. I'd rather make a new unit then.



    Maybe You could add a squad of two titan feets that are stepping through the map. And sometimes big blasts and missiles come down from the sky...

    Also there are the old ELDAR KNIGHT miniatures for epic.
    They look nice, but also old. With some remodelling they would look more "modern", and also fit on any dow maps. I suppose they are max 2 times bigger than a wraithlord.

    Knight: Towering Destroyer

    Knight: Fire Gale

    Come on: 'I don't think DoW is the right kinda game for titans.' The Orks have a SQUIGGOTH. Don't tell me that ain't titanic. Reduce the size of the Revenant so its head is where its 'stomach' is. That means it will be just a little bit taller than the Squiggoth. Fits on screen etc. Please. I want one.

    Oh, forgot something really neat... Nightspinner upgrade for grav tanks. Essentially it is 2 GIGANTIC warp spider guns mounted to the gunnery. This thing could kill a hoard of anything.

    I think Eldar could use the following (in order of importance IMHO):

    * Fire dragons: troop based anti armour, then limit platform numbers and mobility
    * Swooping hawks: Hit and run indirect fire troops
    * Wraith guard: Shock troop, replaces nerfed Seer council as meat-shield
    * Striking scorpians: More mobile CC alternative to Banshees
    * Wave serpent: Troop support and wave disruption

    ..oh and Harlequins..no wait, I'm doing them already
