The Aeldari once ruled the galaxy, before their civilisation collapsed under the weight of their own hedonism. Now, they are a dying and fractured people, their disparate factions each finding a way to survive in a galaxy where their extinction seems all but inevitable. All members of Aeldari society depend upon the psychic might of their Seers, the skill of their warriors, and the technological superiority of their elegant weapons and war machines.
The Asuryani travel the stars aboard colossal vessels known as craftworlds, their citizens adhering to highly disciplined paths to avoid falling to the decadence of their ancestors. The Harlequins are warrior-dancers who worship Cegorach, the Laughing God, and recognise no distinction between art and war. Some, such as the Corsairs, hark back to the individualism of ancient days, plundering stellar trade routes for personal profit, while the Ynnari see their people’s salvation in sinister unification under Ynnead, the God of the Dead.
This opulent and expansive book is essential for Aeldari players and collectors. It provides you not only with the rules for playing an Aeldari army, but it’s also packed with lore, allowing you to delve into the rise and fall of the Aeldari, their methods of warfare, the myriad paths their society walks, and the disparate factions that exist under the Aeldari banner.
This 200-page hardback book includes:
– Extensive background on the Aeldari, from their rise and fall to the many factions their original civilisation shattered into, plus information on the many craftworlds such as Biel-Tan, Saim-Hann, Iyanden, and Ulthwé
– Glorious artwork depicting the many aspects of this once-mighty and still-impressive civilisation, from fearsome Aspect Warriors to lone Corsairs
