The Imperial Guard get an almost literal version of the penis extension gun as well as an motherfucking ICBM. The Space Marines get just like, ALL of the missile rape. Even the Sisters of Battle get a fucking pipe organ that rains death while playing a dirge for the enemy.

The Eldar get nets.

I wish I was fucking joking.

The Night Spinner is the Eldar indirect fire ordnance vehicle. It's based on the Falcon chassis and mounts two bigger versions of the monofilament guns used by Warp Spiders called a Doom Weaver. Before they weren't that great... Now they are the fucking kings of horde clearing. For a time the fire prisms outdid them in the fact that they had an AP value with their big plates but now the Night Spinners have an AP6 to their nasty S7 (which will ALWAYS wound on a 2+ unless you're fighting other eldar because you wound comparing strength with initiative, which means you'll have it easy even when dealing with MCs). This means their intended targets (ork boys, gaunts) will get mulched 5/6 times. But wait! What about cover saves!? Oh boy, their weapon has two modes: one large blast that is barrage (read: you don't give half a mon'keigh fuck about intervening terrain and models' cover) at 48 and the big winner: a TEMPLATE (read: you ignore cover AND cause D6 hits on the poor sods that ride the open topped transports-so you rape Deldar and Orks) that has fucking torrent. Remember how chaos players love the burning brand? We can almost spam them, as this vehicles can be squadroned. And should. Why? Because unlike the fire prisms their special 'combined shots' don't sacrifice one or two shots. YES, you can shot 3 S9 templates at 20 away from the enemy. This means it's pheasible to go and instagib ork mobs, nobs and T4 models (something the dispersed fireprism can't do thanks to it's measly S5). Hordes will die against this guys. Oh my, someone forgot about the cake's icing! It has monofilament: to wounds of 6 become AP2. This thing can be used to punish termeis. On a 6 man squad, 18 hits (that won't scatter) will cause 3 AP2 wounds and 12 wounds. That means a whooping 4 dead termies. Look a fire prism squad: they'll cause 18 hits and cause 15 ap2 wounds meaning a whole 10 man termie squad dead... IF they don't scatter out of the squad and IF the termies aren't spread out. Being realistic, we are looking at 8-9 hits at best and 6 wounds that will result in as many termies as the nightspinners should they be out of cover ,so they could cause even less if they had fallen into ruins. In fact, they nightspinners work better than them against things that rely more in cover saves than armor. Not only boyz but also many marine units such as filthy squads that can crank 3+ or even 2+ saves with the right tactics (like the scout formation). Against 6 man devastators with 4+ cover saves, they'll wound 3 AP2 times and 12 normal ones, resulting in a whooping 7 dead scouts. The dispersed modes, should they not scatter will cause 12 wounds that will result in 6 dead devastators.

Its big brother is the Void Spinner which is considerably more bad ass.
