Eldar War Walker
This page is needs images. Help plz. |
A War Walker is basically what you get if you try walking on stilts to a battlefield while trying to fire two guns at once and not get hit yourself.
While this above opening does mock a little, it is basically what the Eldar War Walker looks like. The official position from Games Workshop is that they are ..."used in rough terrain, to scout out enemy positions". Although why then a faster jetbike isn't a better option is not disclosed...
It looked truly silly in the past when it was basically two legs with a gun on each side and the pilot hideously exposed (I don't care if you say there is some sort of shield there, it still looks like the guy will get sniper shot in no time). Now that the model has been updated for the better and comes with a cockpit to cower in it looks a hell of a lot better although for some reason the feet have now turned into fancy looking hooves.
Oh, and it comes with a variety of heavy weapons which, when you combine them in squads of three, makes them them only half-bad.
