Alternis Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 On 2/11/2026 at 4:23 PM, Dr. Clock said: Honestly, this is gonna be wicked fun. The new stuff seems well-costed, and though I kinda wish the skyreavers had a bit more spice on the datasheet it seems like they can get a whole lot better in the detachments... But mostly I just cannot WAIT to use Ruthless Killers for damage 2 power-swords, or even exotic ammunition shuriken rifles lol. Anyway - Looking at this for a 2k once I've painted up the new box: Yriel Kharseth Autarch Jain Zar 10 Voidscarred - shuriken - exotic munitions [Kharseth] 10 Voidscarred - power-weapons - Alacritous assault [Yriel] 5 Dark Reapers 5 Fire Dragons [Autarch] 5 Howling Banshees [Jain] 5 Rangers 2x Falcon [Banshee/Dragons] 2x3 Shining Spears 10 Skyreavers - Adrenal Infusions (last few points remaining - why not?) 1 Vyper 3 Windriders 3 Shroudrunners Cheers, The Good Doctor. I’m still playing with the list ideas atm but I for sure want Yriel + Voidscarred being buffed by a Lhykis + Warpspider unit for 5+ lethal hits & sustained.

Alby the Slayer Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I have the box but I did not buy the books. Is there something interesting for the Aeldari Corsairs, story/lore-wise or it is only Chaos Space Marine related?

Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Anyone who has played the voidscarred, is the long rifle worth it? im planning to do special gun and everyone else the melee set up, but not sure if the long rifle should get included, especially since I’m currently working on a unit of rangers anyway.

Galron Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 How useful is the one sniper rifle in the marine scout squad? Every now and then you might get a shot through. I forget if it takes the place of another special weapon, if so, take the other special weapon every time.

Waha says 4-9 dudes with pistol/sword, but has the sniper options looking like it’s a completely separate thing Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387436-aeldari-corsairs-ft-nuvyper/page/7/#findComment-6159235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Clock Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 No snipers in Battleline squads, just voidscarred. They're available only if the squad is 10-strong. Does not replace the blaster/shredder or cannons Can't also be given faolchu or fusion pistol Basically it's not a bad option for something to do on the way to melee, but equally not super impressive. Rule of cool says take one alongside the faolchu guy for ignores cover, but probably also let him die first after the felarch's shield goes. Cheers, The Good Doctor.

The wording is weird. it says the voidscarred default to pistol/sword, but for the long rifle specifically it says you can replace his regular rifle with the long rifle. does that mean that dude does not have the pistol/sword option at all?

You replace both pistol and sword by a rifle and then the rifle by the long rifle. So indeed the sniper loose access to sword and pistol and is left with CC weapon only.

The way it’s worded, 1/10 models has a rifle, and that model can then be upgraded to sniper rifle. i wasn’t asking if he could take both. this unit is very poorly worded if this is how the actual datasheet is worded.
