SPECIAL RULES/EQUIPMENT
Holo-Suits
The holo-suit, Dathedi (Eldar: "Between Colours"), Visual Disrupter Fields, Jigsaw Shield, or Domino Shield, is a form of programmable hologram field, used extensively by Harlequins for both Infantry and vehicles. Every Harlequin is equiped with a holo-suit, which projects costume effects during performance, and has a number of uses during battle. When the wearer is in motion the field breaks up the outline of the figure. To the observer, the Harlequin seems to explode into a cloud of tiny multicoloured fragments every time he moves, and when he remains stationary a Cameleoline emulation program projects Camoflague colours. The total effect is of a blurring cloud of colour, fading to nothing when it stops. Further, the field is capable of damping physical forces and warping the path of light.
Thus the Holo-suit provides a 5+ Invulnerable save.
Also the Holo-suit wearer is always counted as in Cover.
Harlequins' Kiss
The Harlequins' Kiss, Brathu-angau (Eldar: "Kiss of Doom"), or Harlequins' Sting, is the Harlequins' trademark.
Normal to hit and armour saving throws are made, there is no Strength vs. Toughness roll with this weapon. A model which fails its armour saving throw is automatically killed.
Harlequin Close Assault Weapons
Harlequins use many types of specialised weapons for Hand to Hand fighting. Either swords or pistols, but always deadly.
Strength vs. Toughness roll with these weapons are taken as though the Harlequin had +2 Strength.
Flip-belts
The Flip-belt, Geirgilath (Eldar: "Belt of Speed"), Suspensor Belts, or Inertia Pivots, is a device which allows the wearer to pivot effortlesly about hip level, and permit undeminished use of their spectacular acrobatic abilities even when encumbered with battle gear.
Thus Flip-belts allow characters or squads that use the Eldar
"Fleet of Foot" rule, to roll two dice and pick the highest for their movement.
Also they allow a Death Jester to 'Move and Fire' with Heavy Weapons.
Shuriken Shrieker Ammunition
Shuriken Shrieker Ammunition, Marsgrech (Eldar: "Screaming Death"), Bio-shuriken, or Gut Blower, is a special ammunition for the Shuriken Cannon. It has earned a terrible reputation among many races for it's spectacular and deadly effects.
A Shuriken Cannon firing a Shrieker round only fires once.
Roll to-hit, wound & save as normal.
If a wound is caused the effected unit should make an Immediate test for pinning at -1 Leadership.
(See Rulebook page 58, "Incoming" - Barrage Pinning.
For rules on pinning.)
