==Vehicle Weaponry==

===Bladevanes===

The [[Edgy|''Edgiest'' weapon available on a vehicle.]]

These are your [[Ork|sharp and spiky bits]] you see on almost every Dark Eldar vehicle. However, they are most typically mounted by [[Reaver Jetbike|Reaver Jetbikes.]] These weapons are mounted underslung the Jetbike and in battle, the riders crouch low over their steeds before streaking through the midst of the enemy ranks, using their Bladevanes to lop off heads and limbs with every pass of the vehicle.

Although these blades can work if placed horizontally, some DEldar like to put theirs vertically. While this decreases the effectiveness and chance of the blade from cutting multiple opponents. That and the fact that if something like a Reaver gets grounded, it is going to be a pain in the ass to manually lift the damn thing up due to the blade being stuck a meter underground. For the Dark Eldar, the increased challenge adds to the thrills and further incentive to avoid failure.

On tabletop, these weapons come stock on your transports and Reavers, for a little extra melee clout. S4, AP-1.

===Shock Prow===

The battering ram for the Dark Eldar.

The Shock Prow is designed for [[Raider|Raiders]] and [[Ravager|Ravagers]] as a close combat defensive weapon against certain foes that like go in up close and personnel. Given the paper mache armor of Dark Eldar vehicles, it is wise that they put up some decent CCW for their transports and tanks.

On tabletop, the Shock Prow lets you make one attack at S User AP-1 and gains d3 D on a charge. It's only 1 point, so knock yourself out. Available only to Raiders and Ravagers. It is a overall decent backup weapon.

===Sharpened Prow Blade===

Essentially a Bladevane given growth hormones. The Sharpened Prow Blade is found mounted only on the [[Reaper]] and is used as a secondary weapon in the off-chance that the driver wants to get some roadkill in the mix.

Due to the angle of the blade, it is used to slice open the top hull of enemy vehicles, and given that Eldar vehicles can fly for a limited time, this is actually a pretty reasonable tactic.

On tabletop, this weapon is the Reaper's scythe, works the same as the Shock Prow but at Damage 2. Make sure to paint some blood on it.

=== Dire Scythe Blade ===

The biggest fucking blade on the block.

Because the Dark Eldar are denied access to Titans for some reason, they have to compensate ''somehow'' of having a giant melee weapon being placed ''somewhere''. Low and behold, the Dire Scythe Blade is born.

AKA the '''Scythevane'''. Mounted only on the [[Tantalus]], these fuck hueg blades are meant to slice open tanks whilst on the run as well as dismembering any unfortunate SOBs in the way. When this thing is on the move, fucking run.

On tabletop, this thing is hilarious. Because your warlord just has to have the biggest blades on their floating death catamaran. Unique to the Tantalus and similar in form to the Shock Prow and Sharpened Prow Blade, but isn't limited to just one attack and hits at S8 AP-2. Useful to finish off anything that you didn't quite manage to completely annihilate with the [[Pulse-Disintegrator]]s.
