Warhammer 40k - Unit Review Library 149 - Aeldari, Rangers
Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - The Great Unit Review Wheel! post!
Now known as the Unit Review Library!
What is it all about? It is not there to just give a stat. It is there to give MY review of the unit!
Also this has become quite the Challenge! With so many units to review in the game the consensus in the hobby community is that I will not have enough time to review all of the Datasheets before the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 came out.
I should have started when 10th edition launched!
467 days since the start of 10th Edition.
This is Review #149, I am 318 reviews behind!
January 2025 we are expecting Astra Militarum and Aeldari codexes as explained Here, so time to focus on THOSE Datasheets!
Aeldari, Rangers
10th Edition Index
Sneaky pointy-eared xenos with sniper rifles. What more do you want to know?
Yeah yeah, we COULD talk all about their grace and marksmanship and ability to cloak and be a total pain in the neck!
A mere 55pts and costing $62.5
You can also run a squad of 10 for 110pts.
Let's check their stats!
Stats
Movement 7"
Toughness 3
Save 5+/5++(armor/invul/Feel No Pain) (Invul against ranged attacks only)
Wounds 1
Ld 6+
OC 1
Weapons
Ranged:
Ranger Long Rifle
36" Range, 1 Shot, Hitting on 3+. S4, AP-1 and 2 Damage each.
Heavy (This weapon gains a +1 to Hit when the unit remains stationary)
Precision (Wounds can be allocated by the shooter on leader units instead of by the owning player.)
Shuriken Pistol
12" Range, 1 Shot, Hitting on 3+. S4, AP-1 and 1 Damage each.
Assault (This weapon can be fired even if the unit has Advanced)
Pistol (This weapon can be fired even while in engagement range of the enemy)
Melee:
Close Combat Weapon
1 Attacks, Hitting on 3+. S3, AP 0 and 1 Damage each.
Abilities
Stealth (Enemy units are at a -1 to Hit them with ranged attacks)
Infiltrate (These units can be set-up in No Mans Land as long as they are more than 9" away from enemy units.
Path of the Outcast
When an enemy unit ends a Normal, Advance or Fallback move within 9" of this unit, they can immediately move D6" as though it were your movement phase.
Thoughts
Right... not so much a pain in the neck as I thought. They would be annoying against my Horde Wolves, sniping out characters. Otherwise they would have a tough time influencing the game.
There is utility in them Infiltrating into No Man's Land if you know your opponent is deploying Combat Infiltrators and then running away the first moment you get, even with a reactive move to make it harder for the enemy to gain on you.
That makes 7 Aeldari Datasheets Reviewed putting them on 9.2% Completed. The total Completed is 15.34% Complete! Can I review them all?!
Thank you for reading!
