The Bloody Handed God (Shard)
Fund Raiser - Helping a friend with funding for a Wedding!
This post is part of the current Fund Raiser where a friend has given me an offer to buy a collection of Warhammer models, the money will go to putting down deposits for his wedding arrangements.
I am collecting funds in the following ways:
- Blogging about Warhammer to earn HBD
- Accepting donations - Can be sent directly to @zakl.hobbyfund in HBD
- Selling some of the collection to friends
The total needed is $580 (R10,000 ZAR).
Every bit counts!
The current progress is 22.55%!
Back to the review.
Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - The Great Unit Review Wheel! post!
Now known as the Unit Review Library!
What is it all about? It is not there to just give a stat. It is there to give MY review of the unit!
Also this has become quite the Challenge! With so many units to review in the game the consensus in the hobby community is that I will not have enough time to review all of the Datasheets before the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 came out.
I should have started when 10th edition launched!
537 days since the start of 10th Edition.
This is Review #195, I am 342 reviews behind! (Lowest I have been is 314 behind)
January 2025 we are expecting Astra Militarum and Aeldari codexes as explained Here, so time to focus on THOSE Datasheets!
Aeldari, Avatar of Khaine
10th Edition Index
The Aeldari God of War Khaine was defeated and shattered into many shards. Every major Craftworld has a piece of him. When things go south for the Aeldari, they will choose (some unlucky and deserving) Exarch to be a noble sacrifice in order to defend the Craftworld or to assist in a battle on a planet.
The shard of the God Khaine possesses the Aeldari Exarch and he become the Avatar. He is a top tier level unit.
It costs 335pts to field and costs $112 to buy this model.
Let's check its stats!
Stats
Movement 10"
Toughness 12
Save 2+/4++ (armor/invul/Feel No Pain)
Wounds 14
Ld 6+
OC 5
Weapons
Ranged Weapons
The Wailing Doom
12" Range, 1 Shot, Hitting on 2+, S16, AP-4 and D6+2 Damage each.
Sustained Hits D3 (On a roll of 6 to Hit, gain an additional D3 hits)
Melee Weapons
The Wailing Doom — sweep option - choose 1
12 Attacks, Hitting on 2+, S7, AP-2 and 2 Damage each.
The Wailing Doom — strike option - choose 1
6 Attack, Hitting on 2+, S14, AP-4 and D6+2 Damage each.
Abilities
The Bloody-Handed
Deadly Demise D3 - He can explode when you kill him and deals D3 damage to every unit within
Friendly Aeldari Add +1 to Advance and Charge rolls while with 6" of this model.
Molten Form
Whenever Damage is allocated to this model, half the incoming damage.
Thoughts
Molten form is like my Bjorn's ability and what the Necron C'Tan have.
It does nothing to D1 weapons and a massive amount gainst D2 weapons. It is great at cutting down damage from Lascannons and Meltaguns and the like.
Its ranged profile is a tank killer and in close combat it is capable of taking out Tanks, Monsters, Knights or even whole squads of Space Marines!
He still needs support however because your enemy has 355pts to counter him!
That makes 30 Aeldari Datasheets Reviewed putting them on 41.66% Completed. The total Completed is 18.76% Complete! Can I review them all?!
Thank you for reading!
