Shadow War: Armageddon is a new game coming our way. Come take a look at some of the rules for Tau & Dark Eldar and how they will play.
With the release of Shadow War: Armageddon right around the corner, we’re starting to see rules pop up all over the place. Let’s first take a look at how to create a Kill Team courtesy of Mini Wars.
Space Marine Scouts and Astra Militarum both get 3-10 models, while the Ork boys are getting 3-20 models. You get a max of 1,000 points to make up whatever Kill Team you can.
Now let’s see what see what Mini Wars had for the Tau rules.
The Tau are getting a nice list of weapons. You get 3 choices for Gladiator Weapons, 2 choices for Pistol Weapons, only 1 option for Basic Weapons, and 4 Special Weapon options. We’re also getting a look at the point cost of the Tau units. A Pathfinder and Pathfinder Specialist are both going to cost you 60 points, while the Pathfinder Cadet is costing 50 points. This should give you a good start for getting you army built before the game even hits the market.
Now let’s take a look at the Dark Eldar.
The Dark Eldar are coming in strong, and expensive. The Syren is a whopping 150 points, Bloodbride is coming in at 100 points, with the Wych costing 80 points, and the Debutante at 70 points. Just like the Tau you’re getting the same number of options as far as Weapon choices goes. 3 choices for Gladiator Weapons, 2 choices for Pistol Weapons, 1 Basic Weapon, and 4 Special Weapon options.
