Warhammer 40k - Unit Review Library 181 - Aeldari, Yvraine


Source

"Ynead a new God?"

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!
508 days since the start of 10th Edition.
This is Review #181, I am 327 reviews behind! (Lowest I have been is 314 behind)

January 2025 we are expecting Astra Militarum and Aeldari codexes as explained Here, so time to focus on THOSE Datasheets!

Aeldari, Yvraine

10th Edition Index

Yvraine... the Prophetess and leader of the new religion amongst the Aeldari people. She gains followers from the Craftworlds, the Corsairs and even the Drukhari.

They seek to birth a new God and therefore rebirth their entire race!

The God of Death!

But let's see what she can do!

She is 125pts to play. I assume that 100pts is for the big dress and she's 25pts LOL.

She costs $42 to buy.

One of her biggest talents is being able to lead many types of units... She can lead:

Corsair Voidscarred
Corsair Voidreavers
Guardian Defenders
Kabalite Warriors (see Drukhari)
Storm Guardians
Troupe
Wyches (see Drukhari)

Let's see what she can do!

Stats

Movement 7"
Toughness 3
Save 6+/4++ (armor/invul/Feel No Pain)
Wounds 4
Ld 6+
OC 1

Weapons

Ranged Weapons

Storm of Whispers

12" Range, D6+3 Shots, Hitting on 2+, S2, AP-2 and 1 Damage each.
Psychic (This attack has the Psychic keyword)
Anti-Infantry 2+ (Critically wounds Infantry on a 2+!)
Devastating Wounds. (Critical Wound cause Mortal Wounds!)

This means 2+ on the wound roll against Terminators or Custodes = Mortal wounds!

Melee Weapons

Kha-vir, the Sword of Sorrows

5 Attacks, Hitting on 2+. S4, AP-3 and 2 Damage each.
Devastating Wounds! (So 6's do Mortal Wounds.)

Abilities

Herald of Ynnead

While leading a unit, the unit has 5+ Feel no Pain.

Word of the Phoenix

While leading a unit, in the Command Phase, roll a dice, on 2+ return D3 slain bodyguard models back to the unit.

Thoughts

So she can help the unit shrug off damage as well as straight up bring them back, sort of like an Aeldari Necromancer!

This is scary... the Psychic shooting is crazy good but only has a 12" Range... so usually you shall use it prior to a combat.

I think she's well worth her points and she is very dangerous. I have faced her once... She was part of an assault that killed 5 Grey Hunters and a Wolf Guard. I then killed her and her bodyguard.

That makes 23 Astra Militarum Datasheets Reviewed putting them on 31.94% Completed. The total Completed is 17.31% Complete! Can I review them all?!

Thank you for reading!

No mention of the blue cat at all? Is it purely for looks?

Hahahaha! Only in the lore. So apparently it boosts her psychic abilities.... I think...
