Eldar Laser Weapons

If Shuriken weapons are Bolt weapons of the Eldar, then the Eldar Laser Weapons are the Eldar equivalent of Las weapons (duh). Using concentrated light to deal damage to their target, the Eldar laser weapons are more advanced than their Imperial counterparts, trading raw balls-out power for being more effective against armored targets. They are most often used on the Eldar's grav vehicles, on heavy weapon platforms, and by the Swooping Hawk and Shining Spear Aspect Warriors.

The Dark Eldar employ more insidious versions of these weapons called Darklight weapons: their energy derived from light captured in black holes and are able to scar the retinas of anyone who sees the energy beams without wearing protective gear.

While functionally identical to Imperial weapons, the manufacturing processes involved in making Eldar laser weapons (such as psychically grown and attuned crystals) make them damn near impossible for the Adeptus Mechanicus to perfectly replicate, let alone produce in quantity. Of course, this does not excuse their complete unwillingness to adapt even the slightest improvement from xeno equipment with a far better track record of reliability and effectiveness.

Craftworld Eldar Weapons

Ranger Long Rifle

Used by the Rangers, the Long Rifle is an advanced sniper rifle outfitted with top-notch stabilising systems and powerful sights with an integrated target scanning system, allowing the user to pinpoint the weak spots on any enemy.

Lasblaster

The primary weapon of the Swooping Hawks Aspect Warriors, the Lasblaster is a low-power handheld energy weapon capable of dealing significant damage over a considerable distance. Though it might lack the punch of the shuriken catapult, the Lasblaster makes up for this with its superior range and rate of fire. Much better than the flashlight of the Imperium by virtue of less heat build up allowing a greater rate of fire.

Hawk's Talon

The Lasblaster's big brother, the Hawk's Talon is a much more powerful weapon, capable of shooting blasts of far greater power.

Sunrifle

A Lasblaster with a higher rate of fire, the Sunrifle is capable of slaying entire squads of enemies in a single laser rave.

Laser Lance

The traditional weapon of the Shining Spears, the Laser Lance is a long polearm capable of shooting intense bursts of energy more than capable of killing a man where he stands, and might even damage an enemy tank. They are short-ranged and rather unwieldy, making them good for only a few shots when charging the enemy.

Star Lance

The Star Lance is an upgraded Laser Lance, with a far higher damage output and is capable of cutting through even the toughest of tanks.

Bright Lance

The Eldar equivalent of the Lascannon, the Bright Lance might not be as powerful or long-ranged as the Lascannon, but it more than makes up for this by being able to cut through even the toughest of armor with ease. Often found on grav-tanks and gun platforms.

Scatter Laser

Multilasers, as used by the Eldar. They have a high strength and rate of fire, but have a somewhat lacking effectiveness against armor.

Pulse Laser

The primary weapon of the Falcon, it is a more dakka Bright Lance, at the cost of effectiveness against armor.

Prism Cannon

Lasers utilising large crystals to fire massive blasts of energy. Very long ranged, highly accurate and capable of several shooting modes: a diffused blast that can vaporize anything up to marine armor, a focused blast to melt Terminators inside out, or a beam with a high chance of blasting through any vehicle it hits (a railgun shot with -1 S and lance, basically). Lost the ability to combine shots, sadly.

Pulsar

The ultimate weapon in Eldar laser technology, the Pulsar is designed to destroy superheavy vehicles and Titans. They are either used individually on the Eldar Titans, or as a pair on the Scorpion super-heavy tank.

Dark Eldar Weapons

Blast Pistol

A pocket-sized weapon whose size belies its enormous firepower: a single shot can destroy even the most well-armoured tank (consider it a Dark Eldar Desert Eagle). Available on everything, sometimes worth it (this writer shot failbaddon to death with ones only from hecatrixs)

Blaster

Being the size of a rifle and only slightly heavier, the Blaster can project its deadly beams over a considerable distance and deal serious damage to enemy vehicles more reliable than any Imperial weapon.

Heat Lance

By the power of lance and melta technology combined here is captain planet a meltagun with better range, less strength, and effin' LANCE. About any tank will blow up the second this looks at it in the face (or at least get glanced to death). As a bonus they're cheaper than dark lances and are available to your jump troops: take four in a squad of scourges to make heavies cry.

Dark Lance

A large and heavy weapon, the Dark Lance is the Dark Eldar's primary anti-tank weapon for a reason: it can fire over a considerable distance and can cripple a tank with but a single burst of dark light.

Haywire Blaster

Though not very impressive against infantry, the Haywire Blaster really shines against enemy armor: a single shot cripples the electronics in the vehicle and with luck will destroy it in a single shot. Fires the raw power of one of the dark eldar's stolen suns.

Storm vortex Projector

Available only on Reapers, these are the the big brothers of Haywire blasters, and fire either a beam or an explosion of light. Are capable of taking out up to four hull points in a single shot or insta-gibbing big nids or other MCs
