IA 11 Ynnari now?

So, if I'm reading everything correctly, the FW Eldar can now be taken as part of a Ynnari army, legally. Have I misread this? Skathach Wraithknights? Irrylith? Shadow Spectres? I'm pretty stoked.

Yeah you can do that.

Reading through it, there seems to be some pretty sick stuff there.

Shadow Spectres seem crazy good. The prism weaponry seems like it got better (the infantry versions, at any rate). The exarch ability seems awesome (add one extra die when rolling Morale, take the lowest).

Irrilyth seems like the big winner--afaik he's the only special character with an ability that has a buff bubble larger than 6", and he's the only Force Multiplier I've seen. (If you missed it, he has an 18" version of the Exarch ability, and gives every unit of Shadow Spectres the same 18" bubble, AND it stacks with the Exarch version.)

Skathach Wraithknights seemed like the best WK in the last edition, and I'm not sure about this one. They can't benefit from SfD, but at least I can take them in with the same faction now.

I'm really hoping that exarch ability is to take the lowest. You don't want to be taking the highest.

Wouldn't surprise me is that was a mistake, since I know they said "discard the lowest" on corsairs and FAQ's it to be "discard the highest."

It is take the lowest, just a typo on my part.

Do you use Irrilyth, too? Stacking those two abilities just seems so brutal to me. Plus the 18" bubble gives me warm memories of Freakshows past...

I have not yet, i just got my book and Tantalus last week, i'm loving Shadow Specters, i need to play with more in the book.

I have 2 Hornets and a Warp Hunter, but my Hornets are..... with Hornets Pulse Lasers and i feel Shuriken Cannons are best for them, i might convert 2 of of my Venoms into Hornets.
