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

===To Ynnari or not Ynnari===

'''23/07/2017 FAQ''': You must have '''Yvraine, The Visarch''' or '''The Yncarne''' as your Warlord to be able to give any Aeldari units in your army the "Ynnari" keyword. Yvraine and The Yncarne are your only access to the Revenant Discipline and the same FAQ finally gave The Visarch a 4+ Invulnerable save.

'''17/11/2017 FAQ''': In Matched Play games, Soulburst can now only trigger on your turn, and only one of each Soulburst action can be used per turn. In competitive play, this basically means you are better off taking a small Ynnari detachment abusing the hell out of the soulburst potential of any combination of the following: Shining Spears (Move, Shoot, Charge), Harlequins (Move, Shoot, Charge), Swooping Hawks (Move, Shoot), Dark Reapers (Shoot), with all your other points spent on your Drukhari.

'''16/04/2018 FAQ''': Ynnari detachments now must also consist of entirely Craftworld, Harlequin, or Drukhari units; you cannot take units from other Aeldari armies in the same detachment any longer. While this is pretty inconvenient, players may still take multiple Ynnari Detachments (Yvraine in one, The Visarch in another, for example) with one dedicated Drukhari force and the other with a dedicated Craftworld force.

'''May 2019 White Dwarf''': The Ynnari received a major overhaul, getting full access to their own relics, warlord traits, stratagems, and a fully fleshed out psychic discipline, but lost access to the Craftworld, Drukhari and Harlequin equivalents. To further isolate the Ynnari detachments from their vanilla variants, they also cannot be targeted by allied vanilla psykers for buffing purposes. The final and most notable change, however, was Strength from Death being retooled to no longer grant additional actions to simply getting an army wide Always Fights First buff upon the death of a unit. This, combined with the very polarized effectiveness of the new tools the Ynnari got (the new strats/relics/traits are either pretty good or steaming hot shit. There is no inbetween) makes the overall change yet another hard nerf in the string of hard nerfs the Ynnari have been getting ever since 8th edition launched.

With the Ynnari index more or less gutting the army overall you'll find that most of the reasons to take Ynnari no longer exist (The out of phase actions) and they've turned into a close combat army in an [[Blood Angels| edition that tends to leans more towards shooty armies]]. This overall leaves Ynnari in a weird spot, but it's not all bad they do get to keep Power From Pain [[Derp| despite having left that behind after joining the Ynnari]] but hey, you also get their own strategems, warlord traits, and relics.

Taking an Ynnari detachment has very few if any incentives now that it's just an army trait, and a rather lackluster one at that. While you do get to keep PFP it doesn't really help stem the overall issue the army faces that '''you should just play pure Drukhari instead'''
