About this deal

The Drukhari are a twisted reflection of their craftworld kin. They dwell in the strange realm known as the Webway, inhabiting Commorragh -- a cyclopean, interdimensional metropolis rightly feared as the "Dark City." The Drukhari feed on negative emotion, dedicating themselves to a non-stop war with the peoples of realspace in which they strive to inflict as much pain and misery as they possibly can. However, suspended at some point between the Screaming Vortex, the Koronus Expanse, and the Webway is an island of relative stability where numerous groups of Drukhari have formed a twisted haven. Here floats the Nexus of Shadows, a Drukhari outpost built upon an ancient and massive technological relic. To venture unheralded past these satellite realms is to invite destruction -- many large and territorial Kabals of Drukhari reside within their twisted geometries, deadly pirate bands of pitiless warriors who live only to inflict pain on others, and will suffer no intrusion on their realms. Before we begin we’d like to thank Games Workshop for providing us with a review copy of the Index. Faction Rule The Aeldari are the most psychically gifted of all sentient beings in the galaxy and as the hedonistic corruption gradually seduced them, the echoes of their ecstasy and agony began to ripple through time and space. In the parallel dimension of the Immaterium, the Warp, the reflections of these intense experiences began to coalesce, as the shifting tides of the chaotic Empyrean can take form around the raw emotions emitted by the sentient beings of the material universe and attract even more of such similar psychic energies to themselves.

As a result all Scourge weapons are designed to be fired while in flight. The most popular is the Shardcarbine, an advanced variant of the Splinter Rifle with a much higher rate of fire, though Scourges also favour the Haywire Blaster, which releases the electromagnetic energy of Commorragh's captive suns in a powerful burst that fry electronics and the Heat Lance, which can disintegrate a foe in a blast of atomic fire.For my Drukhari, I wanted to make clear that these are three separate subfactions who cooperate, and that they aren’t really a single army. To that end, I chose some color schemes that stand out next to one another, but have a coherent threat that joins them together. Like in Warhammer 40,000, the Drukhari benefit from some unique special rules with Combat Drugs to boost their Wyches and Power From Pain – which makes you stronger as the game goes on. In every Kabal there exists a clique of those Drukhari who view themselves as superior to their fellow Kabalites. Most often, this is the result of having been born naturally, rather than as a result of cloning or other esoteric sciences. These ‘Trueborn - as they are known - view themselves as purer, and are afforded a more prestigious position in Commorrite society. They are able to demand the very best, and learn from an early age to protect their birthright to such power.For each MASTER ARCHON unit in your army, one unit of Kabalite Warriors in the same Detachment can be upgraded to Kabalite Trueborn. Kabalite Trueborn have a maximum unit size of 10, gain the KABALITE TRUEBORN keyword and have the following additional abilities:

They may also have pursued further body modifications from the Haemonculi, including having their skin replaced by feathers and their skulls elongated to give them the aspect of a great xenos raptor.

The February 2022 Balance Dataslate

The wings can get some final edge highlights but that isn’t super necessary, especially if you have more than one model of these to paint. We use DHL for our main courier. The delivery guide for this is next working day to 2 working days. The longer period is for areas such as the Highlands and Islands of the UK. The change that was wrought upon those Aeldari sealed within the Webway was far more subtle. Rather than having their psychic essences, their souls, consumed in one great draught by Slaanesh, their souls slowly drained away into the Warp, taken over time by She Who Thirsts. Hey all! So, I've fallen in love with the Scourge unit, and I'm having trouble deciding what to do with them. Now, I have no plans on bringing them into melee, so my Solarite will have a Shardcarbine. With the current kit, I was tempted to go shardcarbines and one splinter cannon since it's basically a better carbine. However, I REALLY like the idea of having a dark lance stuffed in there. I realize mixing anti-infantry with tank can be rough, especially if on the move, but goddamn does it look pretty. Scourges dwell within the upper spires of Commorragh and are an intrinsic part of life in the city. They act not only as warriors but also spies and messengers for various Archons. Their messages are often imbued with a poison whose antidote is only in the possession of the recipient. [3]

Alright sets for these guys are kinda inclusive to what they are hunting and wether or not heavy weapons are a worth it. Grotesques can carry both their Monstrous Weapons and Liquifier Guns at the same time, making them a little more versatile. Mindless Killing Machines gives them the ability to fight on death on a 4+, but going down to ap 1 on their combat weapons and losing the ability to deal mortals (the Flesh Gauntlet just doesn’t feature here) limits them a little bit. Paint pure white in the helmet lenses and tubes before glazing it with a light green. Tesseract glow would probably work well these days, I guess? The important thing is that Drukhari benefit from having one or two really bright details, and this was that. This was the birth of the Chaos God Slaanesh, the Dark Prince of Pleasure, better known as "She Who Thirsts" to the Aeldari and all their descendants, for to them Slaanesh was inherently female. The furore that resulted from this audacious capture set the spires of High Commorragh aflame with new intrigue. A Space Marine captain was a great prize indeed, for such an individual could withstand extreme and prolonged mental and physical torture before divulging his vital secrets about Imperial defence.

Wrap Up

Layer up the armor – this will give a nice white armor effect with shading that is actually visible but that still reads as white:

Almost immediately after the arrival of the Drukhari and its establishment as a port, the Nexus began to operate as a hub for trade and a base for raiding. Close to the Koronus Expanse and the Calixis Sector, it opened up fresh opportunities for slavers and worlds that before had been out of reach or too dangerous to raid using the fractured remains of the Webway.

Five Things You Need to Know

As long as they steeped themselves in the most evil and savagely decadent acts, the Aeldari of the Webway found that the curse of Slaanesh upon their people could be avoided. The psychic energy generated by the suffering and agony of others nourished their diminished souls and kept them vital and strong, filling their spare frames with unnaturally robust energies. Its prow was a vast jutting ram that ploughed straight into the spire where Xelian stood, crushing it like a hammer driven into a priceless sculpture. Their weapon options are all incredibly strong, but their standout unique ones being the heat Lance and haywire blaster are both heavy which hurts.
