GW Releases New Harlequins List
« on: May 19, 2003, 11:01:21 AM »
A heads up for anyone who's still using the vaguely beta rules for harlequins from over two years ago:

GW has published a new army list.  And it's got some important differences.

This month's Troll magazine (#64) has a new Harlequins list in the back.  Included are statistics for an Avatar (which should have been called a Great Harlequin, but still), Harlequin Troupe, Death Jesters, Solitaires, Mime Troupes, and Master Mimes.  No point statistics are listed - they're presented out just for use in one scenario.  The biggest difference is that everyone has 5+ saves.  Go, read, get.  I fully expect many people not to like the list, but unfortunately it does pretty nicely invalidate the entire beta 'dex released in CJ.
They say all is fair in love and war, but the love is better because then the Geneva Convention doesn't prevent you from using nerve gas.

I hope you all play this scenario and send your feedback to GW so that they know how it works, and how it differs from the CJ list.

Can we get Troll in gaming stores or is it mail order only?

Go and ask in your local store if they have it or if they can get it for you. I think that most could if they wanted to.
Otherwise you can call mailorder and have one sent out to you.

AUGH!!  I'M SO FREAKING EXCITED!!!!  I got my White Dwarf a few days ago, and was flipping through the Troll for pix of the new Seer Council when I saw the Harlie list!  EEEK!!!  My immediate surmise is that Andy Chambers has won the good fight and we will be getting an official Harlequin list.  (Which means my 3000 points of Harlies won't go to waste!)  Huzzah!

In service,

Or he has LOST the fight, and this is the last we will see of them.

Do your part, help save the Harlequins.

Us old school players still call them High avatars, the troupe leaders are called avatars :D
