Do You Remember the Rise of the Armor 14 Eldar Warwalkers?
Welcome to 40k Flashback, where I dig deep for something cool that I have or have seen from back in the day. Which according to the comic Dane Cook was a Wednesday…
Back at the turn of the century with the release of 3rd Edition (or “corporate”) 40k, all relevant units were updated for that rules set in the back of the book.
Lets just say for a brief period, the warwalker was quite a popular unit and leave it at that.
The armor value was updated when their codex was released in the early 2000’s, but starcannons and Iyanden craftworld builds (from the Craftworld codex) rose to particular prominence shortly thereafter.
What do you remember of these dark times? -MBG
