The Skyboards are the Goblin Glider rip offs main vehicle used by the Dark Eldar Hellions.
Overview[edit]
Much smaller than any other skimmer in 40k, even by the ones used by House Van Saar in Necromunda. These gliders are extremely fast and maneuverable, able to make sharp turns that would be impossible for any other larger aircraft.
The boards have numerous blades and compact anti-grav technology allowing them to soar far above the battlefield and swoop down to the ground. Their pilots often use hooked chains to keep themselves from falling when moving. They are largely armed with underslung Splinter Pods, now how they exactly fire those pods, we don't know; might be some ridiculous foot trigger mechanism.
They are also used by Beastmasters as well as Baron Sathonyx.
