Version 10.62 of Eldar is due out any time. From JJ's description, it sounds like a solid improvement, fixing some balance issues and (best of all) some flavor issues.
My guess is there will be one final tweak from this version to the printed list just to finalize points and _possibly_ tune the EoV one last time.

The bit on the Storm Serpent becoming a moblie Warp gate is simply a stroke of brilliance! Very nice indeed!

It's a new unit based on the Eldar SHT chassis. It was basically a superheavy transport. Now it's an SHT supporting a warpgate so that Eldar units can step out of the webway next to it.
Incidentally, the Great Hawk is another Eldar SHT using an enlarged nightspinner/deathspinner array.

Complements. You can see the Storm Serpent here - or at least, my interpretation - the 'carrying' of a portal will be catered for by the spikes at the front - lazy!

Complements.
When it was a transport, they had very similar roles and there was significant disagreement over whether they were worth it. I thought they were marginally better for twice the points - ugh - but some people liked them as being more aggressive.
Anyway, with the teleport gate, they are now quite different, and not entirely unlike a necron monolith.

And a revelation that we shall be receiving a Falcon variant with better shorter ranged AA capacity, which is why JJ wants to knock the Fire Prism down to 5+ AA.

Blimey, since I've been off line I've missed quite a bit.
I need to download the those new rules!

Hi,
The new siegemasters stuff is up in the GWUK website store.
Infantry box = ?20
Siegfried tanks = ?7
Arti Comp = ?7
Pretty much the cost we were all expecting.
Cheers,
Freshmetal
