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

===Specialist Detachment Specific===
These are ''very'' specific traits which can be taken by applicable Warlords within their Specialist Detachments. While they can be quite potent, they do only apply towards units with the respective Specialist Detachment keyword, meaning you'd have to very specifically design your army around these traits to take full advantage of them. If you can spare 1 CP and still want a regular trait for your warlord, you may use the ''Field Commander'' stratagem to give one of your HQ units within a Specialist Detachment the respective trait associated with it.
*'''Windrider Host - Wind Rider:''' This trait allows any {{W40Kkeyword|WINDRIDER HOST}} units within 6" of your Warlord/Field Commander to charge even after falling back earlier that turn. While this sounds good in practice, the utility pales somewhat when your standard units are [[Jetbike|Windriders]] (who probably shouldn't be in melee) and Vypers (who ''also'' shouldn't be in melee). That said, the ones who really benefit are your HQ choices themselves. A Warlock Conclave armed with Singing Spears can be particularly frightening to enemies relying on their Toughness to tank hits, while an [[Autarch|Autarch Skyrunner]] can be shockingly lethal if armed with a Novalance for [[Rape|MAXIMUM PAIN]], and will be a bitch to get away from. Alternatively, this opens up some tactical options for applying pressure on key enemy units, though keep in mind; this can make your Warlord considerably more vulnerable since he'd have to be participating in the charge-retreat-charge shenanigans as well.
**The '''Strike and Fade''' custom Craftworld Attribute completely invalidates this trait, as it applies to your entire army at all times. Given the unit restrictions and heavy CP cost specialist detachments tend to incur, you may want to just take a supplementary Strike and Fade detachment if you just want to abuse this mechanic.

*'''Wraith Host - Revered by the Dead:''' Built primarily for your fighty Wraith units, this allows any {{W40Kkeyword|WRAITH HOST WRAITH CONSTRUCTS}}  within 6" to reroll failed charge rolls. This is very redundant for Saim-Hann, given their attribute simply applies to all your units regardless. Instead, this can be particularly handy for Iyanden Wraith armies, with a Spiritseer for cost efficiency and RoB support, or a Wraithseer as a durable, hard-hitting buff vector for his Wraith body guards (plus it gets the re-rolls too!). Going with this trait means you're going heavy with [[Wraithblades]], physically inclined [[Wraithlords]] and [[Wraithseer|Wraithseers]], or planning to have your [[Wraithknight]] up in the thick of it. If you prefer to keep your enemies at a modest distance, it may be better to stick with a vanilla trait instead.
