Title: Coca-Cola and Harlequins...
Post by: Brandon357 on February 9, 2002, 04:18:19 PM
Hello all.  I'm a newbie to Warhammer 40K, but already I've decided to play as the Eldar.  However, I'm really starting to love the Harlequin forces.  One prob, though, is that there aren't any models to be bought on Games Workshop's website.  So, I was wondering if any of you knew how much those sweet little Solitaires, Death Jesters and Harlequin Troupes cost.

Also, Coca-Cola RULES!!! 8) 8) 8)

The prices range from about 5$ to something like 8$ on the Games Workshop website.

Thanks fellas, I appreciate the help.  I wonder what weapon is the better...a Bright Lance or a Star Cannon.  For all purposes the Star Cannon is more powerful, but the Bright Lance is cheaper and still does the same anti-armor work as the Cannon.   ???

Ah well, it'll come to me soon enough, and when it does, all of those weakling Necrons and Tyranids...as well as the stupid mon-keighs...will be running for their mamas!   ;D

Later, everyone.

P.S. Some finish at the NASCAR Shootout today, eh?

Well the only major difference between the weapons would be that the Bright lance is an assault weapon, while the starcannon is a heavy weapon. This naturaly makes the bright lance more efficient in close combat or if you want to move your units since heavy weapons can't be fired if you move. Also the bright lance has a higher strenght, 8, as opposed to the 6 strength of the starcannon.

Yeah, I also appreciate the Brightlance's ability to keep any tank that has Armor 12+ at an Armor 12!!!   8)

That means that that Land Raider with its Armor 14 isn't going to be lasting very long under a barrage of high-energy laser beams.  And that's ALWAYS a good thing for us Eldar!!!!!   ;D
