Alarms are sounding and forums are alive with Eldar musings, come see what many have already titled the ‘Wraithspam’ army.

Everything is in flux with the arrival of the new Eldar, but what armies will we see on the table top starting next week?

Heres a first look list that seems both competitive and easy to play – the perfect storm for most players and hobbyists.

Veteran of the Long War ‘Knight 12’ is back with this fresh army list!

Wraithspam 1850

Wind Rider Host

  • Farseer on Bike
  • Warlock on Bike
  • Vyper with 2 Shruiken Cannons (new tech)
