More to the point, 40k used to have a lot of board-wide psuchic defenses (I even remember when psychic hoods were board wide) now they've all been cut back (some drastically).  Runes of warding is fine but to have it work board wide is bit of a travesty.  That's the sort of thing that should have been errata'd along with psychic hoods (and SW rune weapons) as soon as 6th came out.

Here's some info from my rep on the Wraithknight:

T8
W6
Jump MC
Sword + Shield or Sun Cannon + Shield
Sun Cannon - S10 2 shots.
Heavy slot
240pts.
2x as tall as a Riptide
Sword = same size as a Riptide

Apparently all Eldar vehicles are BS4.

Apparently the Spiritseer unlocks Wraightguard (and Wraithblades, if they're the same kit) as troop choices.

As a heads up, I am LIMITED to the following number of models until at least 3 weeks after launch.  If you would like to get your hands on some of them, please let me know ASAP.  Please note that I will have them in store before you would have them at your doorstep if you order through GW.

Farseer:  3
Windriders:  3
Battleforce:  1 (we have no details on this outside of the fact that it doesn't have new models in it)
Wraithguard:  6
Hemlock Fighter:  6
Dire Avengers - repacked, 5 models now:  5
Wraithknight:  7
Spirit Seer:  3
Illic:  3

It appears as though I won't be limited on anything else other than the limited edition books and Autarch upgrade kit.

As soon as you know you want something let me know.  It's the only way to make sure it's waiting for you on Saturday, June 1st*

Cool looks good, I stand by my prediction that the Iyanden Wraith army will be completely awesome.

I would like to see GW not screw Battleground over on this release.

Me too.  There seems to be a fair bit of initial demand, which is cool.

Chase, do you have the ability to get the limited edition book?

 Also, has anyone gotten the limited edition codices yet? What;s in them/ are they worth the extra 50 bills?

From why I heard is its just an alternate cover and a page that says how great the limited edition is. Nothing else
