With the current development I hope we will see assaults from transports being back, I hope Eldar will have the ability to do this either from the current transports, or with a brand new one.
This could give fragile Eldar a means to get into combat. Using the transport to assault first and taking the most of the heat from overwatch seems to be a really potent strategy, then assault with the previously embarked now disembarked unit as well.
Still I feel Banshees will stay on the shelf, unless they get something new like A+1 either as characteristic or they'll get something like Banshee powerswords, granting them an extra attack just like the new chainswords does.
Banshees could have a profile like this:
M10 WS3+ BS3+ Sx Tx Wx A2 Ld8 Sv4+
Here's an idea for the Dark reapers as well:
M7 WS 3+ BS3++* Sx Tx Wx A1 Ld8 Sv3+
*Dark reapers do not suffer to hit modifier when shooting, nor do they gain any to hit modifiers, due to their specialised targetting system.
Essentially reapers will hit flyers and smoked vehicles at full BS, but things like "guide" will have no effect on them.
Here's how the stats for the Reaper launcher could look like:
Heavy 2 Sx AP-2 damage D2 same range.
Wave serpents could have a defensive shield, lowering any strenght above 10 to 10. That shield could be "shot" once per game to blow models away, this would be a nova power which affects friends and foes, does no damage but all models within 6" of the vehicle will be moved outside that 6" bubble. This will however make the shield useless for the rest of the game.
Substituted current stats with x to comply with forum rule 1 - Iris.
