Staring down the barrel…

Cobra

The Cobra is another of the Eldar’s Engines of Vaul, much like the Scorpion, but re-armed with a massive D-cannon. This is a weapon capable of tearing a hole through time and space, and allowing the Immaterium to flood into the material plane with terrible destructive force.

I am never sure whether I like this model or not. Don’t get me wrong the paint job (by George Dellapina if I remember correctly) is excellent. I do like the sculpting, the lines and the pose. I guess my problem is that for the Warhammer 40K universe it looks too light footed, too flimsy, too featherweight!

But then again I am not an Eldar player so what do I know?

Eldar Vampire

Vampire

When Imperial forces bring an Eldar army to battle one of the Eldar’s most potent threats is their aircraft. The Eldar’s unequaled grasp of anti gravitic technology means that their aircraft are faster and more agile than Imperial equivalents. The Vampire Raider is often used for making swift sorties onto a planets surface, capable of travelling at many times the speed of sound, and is capable of defending itself.

Eldar Scorpion Type II

The Scorpion super heavy grav tank is one of the largest vehicles capable of anti-gravatic movement. The Eldar have used the Scorpion to spearhead an all out attack, especially against strongly defended positions where its Pulsars are used to engage enemy bunkers and strong points.

This is the model from the Forgeworld displays at GamesDay 2004.
