Oh well, now I have to place another order.

yes it will be available on gamesday UK so I will have to reserve some....
I also like the new 40k eldar titan which was also making an appearance in epic scale on the fanatic site. I was hoping to more epic bits would be available but that might come later on in the year. Maybe the FW seminar will shed some light on whats coming up:)

It is an offence... Just not one that is illegal.

Hello to you all,
I'm building a Biel-tan force and like a lot of others, I'm thinking about how to design my aspect warhosts. I was thinking about the classic striking scorpion/dire avenger combo, but I wanted to take a banshee exarch, because of the 3+ (mw) assault. I'll trade in one attack, for a more reliable MW attack (it doesn't get first strike, does it?) On the other hand, It isn't the safest place for an autarch to be, so what are your thoughts about this?
greetings,
Gamgee

I really like the Warp Spider Autarch: all attacks are First Strike, Infiltrate allows a lot of placement options, and Scout gives a wider zone of control.

Thats a nice one indeed! The warp spider and shining spear one can start safely on table as well. I feel a lot like flying in the "slow" aspects, a vampire is just as expensive as the wave serpents.
I'm just going to convert a few and experiment a bit!

Exarchs' extra attacks are not MW.
One of the best is a DR Exarch. A DR exarch gets almost the same average hits as a DA exarch in a FF, plus it has the benefit of a 45cm ranged shot if you need to put BMs on something far away.

You are correct, but the Autarch does grant +1CCMW attack.
