Webway Portals: Webway portals are used by the Eldar to safely travel through the Warp. Each webway portal included in the army allows the Eldar player to pick up to three other formations, and keep them back on the Craftworld. Any formation’s that are kept on the Craftworld may enter play via the Webway Portal, by taking an action that allows them to make a move, and then measuring their first move from the position that a webway portal occupies on the tabletop. Note that the formation may appear through any portal, not just the one that was ‘used’ to allow the formation to be kept off-board. No more than one formation may travel through each webway portal each turn.

I like the idea

It would make placing the gate quite a strategic ploy over and above what it is now.

In fluffy terms, there is no reason why both Eldar should not be able to use both webways. I say do it!

LoL Meph

Ok, here is an even 'sillier' question :- So if only one side has bought a gate, could the other side put troops in reserve with the express aim of coming out of the gate? Note there is a limit of three formations per gate, and I presume that they would take turns declaring "Reserve" formations; so if permitted, (and assuming he went first) presumably the 'interloper' could declare three formations using the gate thus blocking the owner from using it himself.

While this sounds harsh, in practice the 'interloper' would then be fighting at a significant disadvantage in activations, and potentially with a divided army (if the gate is a long way into the opponents table half), so I am not sure it is such an impossible idea. What do you think guys??
