===Dragon's Breath Flamer=== [[File:Dragon's_Breath_Flamer.PNG|right|200px|thumb|Dragon's Breath Flamer]] This flamethrower here is an upgrade to the regular Eldar Flamer used by Exarchs of the [[Fire Dragons]]. This weapon is loyal to its name and can sear anything that gets within range of their wielders. By function, they are similar to the Heavy Flamers employed by the military forces of the Imperium of Man, although in terms of appearance, there is very little difference between that and the regular Eldar Flamer other than the way its fuel canister is attached and a longer nozzle to project the ignited fuel at an increased range – that is to say, it is basically a little larger than the regular Eldar Flamer. As elegant and deceptively fragile-looking as all Eldar devices, the Dragon’s Breath is more sophisticated and efficient than the bulkier Imperial Flamers. It utilizes a trio of rare, highly-compressed chemicals designed to ignite when mixed, forming liquid gouts of flame that arc outward in a deadly spray. The chemicals do not need air for combustion, and the heavy spray adheres to most surfaces, making extinguishing the flames difficult – Eldar napalm, basically. The Dragon’s Breath Flamer must be used in an atmosphere, though that atmosphere does not have to be the standard oxygen-nitrogen mix. The fire can probably burn anything in the air as long as there is something in the air. An interesting feature to note is that this Flamer, along with the Fire Lance, doesn't have a tube attached to the Aspect Warrior's arm, specifically the elbow. This tube might just be another essential component for Eldar infantry-sized Flamer and Fusion weapons in general to work. Both the Fire Lance and this Dragon's Breath Flamer are depicted on tabletop with the Exarch "holding" it and not in a ready-to-fire kind. Fuegan, however, holds his Firepike by the grip, and there is a tube attached to his arm. To top it off, a Fire Dragon model carries his Fusion Gun by the handguard without a tube attached as he is about to throw a grenade. All in all, this suggests that in order to fire these weapons, it must somehow interact with the user's armour. The ingredient here might be of psychic quality because Eldar. Anywho, it practically exists as a piece of fluff; as while there is an option to give one to a model on the tabletop, so far no one has been dumb enough to actually take that option over the basic Fusion Gun or Fire Lance. <center> {|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="background: white;" |+ class="nowrap" style="white-space: nowrap"|'''Profile''' |- | {|align=center border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=10 |- | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;"| Gallery |- |<gallery class="center"> FireDragonExarchFlamer.jpg|<center>...held by an Exarch</center> </gallery> |} | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Stats |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile-7-8|r7=Template|s7=5|ap7=4|type7=Assault 1|r8=8"|s8=5|ap8=-1|type8=Assault D6|abil8=Automatically hits target.}} |} |} |} </center> {{40k-Eldar-Weapons}}
