Editing Warhammer 40,000/8th Edition Tactics/Eldar (section)

=====Special Unit=====
'''HQ'''
*'''Illic Nightspear''': At a reduced price of 65 points, Illic Nightspear is a cheap and potent HQ choice that excels at killing enemy {{W40kKeyword|Characters}}. Equipped with a special ranger rifle named the Voidbringer, Illic fires a single S4 AP-3 shot a turn that can target characters freely, deals a flat 3 damage, plus a mortal wound on a damage roll of a 6+. Did I mention that he wounds all non-{{W40kKeyword|Vehicle}} models on a 2+ and hits on a 2+? One or two rounds of shooting are all you'll need to take down squishier characters like Commissars, Warlocks, Apothecaries and Crypteks. Speaking of Crypteks, Illic's last notable perk is that he gets to re-roll all failed hit and wound rolls against {{W40kKeyword|Necron}} units. Where Illic starts to become dead weight is when most single model units have been dealt with; having only one shot a turn means that Illic will at most off one single model a turn (two, if you get lucky and roll a 6 for the bonus mortal wound against 1 wound models). This makes him virtually useless for the rest of the game, as unlike many of your other options, Illic has no way (outside being made your Warlord and using ''Puritanical Leader'' to ignore morale) of supporting any of your units. Thankfully, his revised price point means that if nothing else, you can bring him just to fill up an HQ slot for Battalion/Brigade detachments.
