I know. Still, they are from what we’ve seen in the White Dwarf leaks. Unless I am mistaken, the Hemlock is the bomber (psychic weaponry somehow) and the Nightshade Fighter is the name of the plane manned by the Crimson Hunter Aspect Warrior.

I doubt they’re named the Nightshade and the Hemlock – mostly because the Eldar already have a pair of Frigates by those names.

you don’t see them all that much because they are In the heavy support slot against ravagers and the cronos…

Do you really see the Dark Eldar ones in action much?

Don’t seem that hot to me, really. A bit more “something” would certainly be welcome for the Eldar (and I am not sure if Vector Dancer alone is that “something”

i agree, the dark eldar ones aren’t bad so something similar would be great, i’d be really disappointed if they come out like the helldrake that was just a massive misstep in an overall balance run of books.

I hope theyre interesting, but in all honesty, i hope they arent on par with the vendetta & helldrake. I’m hoping they realise front and side armour 12 flyers are just bonkers.

Slightly ‘improved’ versions of the Dark Eldar flyers would be lovely. Id consider using them in eldar lists and it would bode well for the future dark eldar book.
