Hi,

I just downloaded the 5.2 Eldar Army list from the Yahoo Group and I found the following error in the wing damage template, it says:

1-3 wing damaged...
3-6 wing destroyed..

Should not it be: 1-3 wing damaged and 4-6 wing destroyed ?

I also have a question:

In the Wing Weapon damage table, it says:

- 1-3 roll on the wing
- 4-6 roll on the reactor

but:

Is the roll on the reactor logical ? should not it be 4-6 roll on the weapon ?
What happens if the wing is destroyed ? Does the wing weapon is also destroyed or not ?

Thanks for your help

PS: I noticed that the Saim-Hann wind rider host has become Unique, sounds interesting :)

From the old Renegades book and NetEpic 4.1

Wing Damage Table
1-3 wing damaged. The Titans Holo Fields will not work until repaired by rolling a 4+ on a D6 in the End Phase
4-5 wing destroyed and the Titans Holo Fields will not work for the rest of the game
6 The Wing is broken clean off the Titan and lands 2D6cm in a random direction. Anything the wing lands on must make a saving throw or be destroyed. The Titan's Holo Fields stop working for the rest of the game.

and

Wing Weapon Damage Table
1-3 roll on the wing
4-6 roll on the weapon

Only if the weapon is hit and rolls a 6 does it do secondary flashback damage rolling...
1-2 Wing
3-4 Reactor
5-6 Head

I take it to mean that the Wing Weapon is a weapon in it's own right as it has it's own location. (Roll to hit Wing or Wing Weapon. If Wing Weapon hit then roll on Weapon table and apply result to the wing weapon.)

These stats are right and I see no reason to change. v5 and 5.1 have the same typo-ed stats as your new v5.2

Hope this helps.

The former is an obvious typo and we can fix it up during Gold Errata time.

I'm not aware of the rationale for the changes to the Wing Weapon...just another one of those "lets gimp the Eldar" changes that took place from 4.1 to 5.0 I guess.  Changing Reactor to Weapon seems sensible to me.

Hi!

We can change/edit to taste once the final proofs come out.
