	~~Common examples~~ of ~~Glass Cannon classes include~~ [[~~Mage~~]]s and [[Rogue]]s.		The [[Wizard]], [[Sorcerer (Dungeons & Dragons)\|Sorcerer]] and [[Warlock]] of [[Dungeons & Dragons]] can dish out large amounts of damage and debilitation with their spells, but are traditionally restricted to the lightest armor and have the lowest innate hit points score, so they cannot take a lot of damage.
	~~Examples in 40k include all of~~ the Eldar factions, ~~as well as~~ the Tau.
			The [[Rogue]], similarly, can dish out large amounts of damage with its Sneak Attack/Backstab mechanic, but it is the least-armored of the martial classes and has the lowest amount of hit points.

			In [[Warhammer 40,000]], the [[Eldar]] and [[Dark Eldar]] factions tend to have multiple attacks, high weapon skill, and good armor penetration with both melee and ranged weapons, meaning they will frequently kill any human-equivalent creature they fight. However, their toughness is below par, so if hit in return, they will usually die quickly. Similarly, the [[Tau]] have some of the most potent firepower in the game, but their poor melee weapon skill means they will be swiftly overrun if enemy units make it into melee with them.
