That's my point though, if a grenade launcher is the main armament then I don't think a Skimmer is the best chassis to use for it. Put it on a Heavy Jet bike and give it a Grav weapon secondary and you've got a great way to harass people that's both cheaper and faster.
I don't think it's faster, and it's cheaper per vehicle but not per gun - two of these heavy bikes gonna be around 150 EP. On the other hand, it falls into fast attack squad instead of what probably is heavy support for a Cloudburst, and we can field more of them, and not clog the slots where a real tank can be fit in.
 
Can WE reach the other craftworld, all the exodite worlds and even the people living in the webway pretty sure that is a no for most of them.
But we know a few clowns how can.

Said clowns will likely also love the reveal of the real reason we call such a conclave, instead of it being Biel-Tan being stupid as fuck. Very rarely can you help to set up a practical prank of that proportions, you know.
We are able to reach Val terrine with our fleet, in the galactic south east easily enough.
If we get harlequin guides, we can get pretty much anywhere.

Biel Tan is probably having so much trouble cos the clown isn't helping them get around to start Kinstrife.

There has to be a way for representatives on other craftworlds to meet eachother, Eldrad was able to go to a bunch of craftworlds and steal crystalised farseers to help summon Ynnead into existence by the time of 40k so we know there's a way to ferry individuals from one craftworld to another without much difficulty (granted, provided there's a fleet helping to scout the webway)

The biggest issues will not be reaching the craftworlds, It'll be to get them to agree to a conclave, and the best ways to do those is to have harlequin messengers and ask Saim-Hann for help in calling the conclave, we say that we want to call a meeting because of BT (technically true, but we also have a secret that we ask the harlequins to not divulge because it'd be funny to reveal the truth at the conclave) and then drop the biggest and funniest bombshell yet.

Hey Ceogorach! We have the best joke, we are about to make fools out of all four chaos gods. You in?
Ceogorach: "Honk honk honk!" (Am I ever!?)
 
The point is that WE only have a very limited map of the webway.

The clowns have a much better idea on how to get to pretty much any place of important for the remaining Eldar.
They are also kind of the best people to reach out to, pretty much everyone else and then also get them to the meeting.
 
Ideally the revelation gives us enough diplomatic chops that our relationship is upped from Hostile to.. Well, not-hostile.
 
Big Honk has a key of Asuryan; if he really must, he is straight up capable of making his own routes through the webway.

On a relevant note... Does this this reveal qualify us for +rep with Harlequins? They are normally pretty hard to make actual friends with, IIRC. Helping out other eldar remnants is their normal mode of operation, they typically don't really do favouritism.

Pretty sure this counts as a +rep thing for every Eldar faction, that isn't biel tan how are going called out for their stupidity hard to make the meeting happen.
 
So the reason that this curse is even breakable in the first place is cause Khorne fucked up. He took his swing and he whiffed. *Khorne* whiffed.

Khorne couldn't hit the clutch and choked because of it, and now some dumbass Eldar in the north just figured out the whole scheme by basically tripping over his failure.

This dude had one chance and he threw at the last second.

But hey this won't be the last time chaos screws up if the horus heresy continues apace.

BTW, this might be a good opportunity to show off stuff we wouldn't mind selling.

Craftworlds barely got anything rn. Imagine seeing an Ithilmar or VG when you don't even have Aspect armor just yet. Or brigantine, even.

Once again, Chaos proves that Chaos is its own biggest foil.

Ain't none of the 4 gonna be able to live this down, and elsewhere Malal's having a laugh.

Edit: Heck, this might even screw up Big E's grand plan for the Imperium, given he was probably relying on the Eldar being too fucked to do anything, now here we are having figured out the curse and hopefully about to start getting better shit out to our homies.

The biggest two parts here for me is just the knowledge about the curse/flaw.
Knowing that the seer are actively harmful when used against chaos.
That is massive already, even without breaking the curse.

The second being that nurgle curse part and how it interacts with the Eldar.
On the population front, they might actually get some positive growth going if they figure out a strong enough warding that can help there. Means they might not be stuck with a slowly shrinking/stagnant population in the best case.

Depending on how that goes, the GC might get a lot more spicy if the Eldar by that point actually recovered somewhat numberwise and got some new larger industrial hubs going.

I had the impression a Skimmer was essentially a bigger Heavy Jetbike with more room to put stuff, and so would be a bigger target. I'll acknowledge the cost though, I think I was conflating it with the lesser Jetbike for that in my head.

Maybe Aresh-Vul can go to the conclave wearing a suit of Ithilmar armour while his guards all wear brigandine or VGA suits, just casually show it off to the conclave and everything :V

Knowledge is half the battle. We already know that mitigating slanneshs part of the curse is fully possible, Canon Eldar do it Via Soul stones and the Infinity circuits. We CAN mitigate The other parts of the curse now that we know its their.

We KNOW the phonelines are tapped, and That is half the battle, We KNOW that Nurgle is going to be attacking us through Stagnation and our Birth rates, to have us Smolder out quietly into the night.
Now that we Know, We can actually start working to mitigate it similar to how mitigation can be taken towards slaneshs part of the curse.

This is MASSIVE, We were under attack on two fronts that we couldn't see, Now we know that, now we can start testing options for working around it. We Know we are under attack, and we know How we are under attack, And we know Where these attack are hitting. We know that our Farseers are tapped, and we know that the curse is trying to Implement species wide Stagnation and decay.

Even if we can't break the curses for a long while? Knowing, and being able to tell other eldar remnants that we are under attack like this is already massive Wins. You can't protect, or mitigate or defend from an attack that you don't know is occurring.

Slaaneshi curse also actively inhibits and weakens eldar psykery, so I wouldn't say that asuryani really succeeded with "fully" mitigating Slaaneshi part.

We probably can sell blueprints, but I honestly doubt we can afford to sell actual stuff before we deal with the Poorly Equipped Military mission

I mean, Their souls also aren't being eaten and tortured for eternity, So I call that some pretty good mitigation lmao

Actually, If the Dryads have managed to change themselves enough that Slanesshs curse is mitigated, I wonder if the reason their farsight is working diffrently is because they are diffrent enough in form and soul that the Tzeentchian curse isn't taking full effect.

With that in mind, given they are Isha priests and how they have moved themselves closer to her, It makes me worried about how the Nurgle part of the curse is effecting them. I Think we might need to put Dryads under the Ritual circle next, and see what the curses are doing to Their souls because from the looks of it, Their new forms might have warp it a bit.

Advertising is good, and announcing things in advance is good for advertising.

If they want some suits now, they could offer something of sufficient value. Otherwise, they could just wait until we are ready to sell.

Yes, it is just not full mitigation. Ye, Ishari transformation is interesting.
