Legitimate question: Do the few male Howling Banshees there are get a flat chest armour plate or do they just get the standard breasted plate and wear it though it's hollow? I think the latter would be cool to keep the outward image of a bunch of vicious female super soldiers killing people. Because if a dude joins them to begin with it's because he exhibits the finesse and precision they want, so the guy would already be acting kinda feminine, no?

I don't know where I could look into to get an official answer to this inquiry

iirc its boobplate for everyone, might be as far back as Epic Renegades but its been a while.
>>
>>97670817
Aspect Warriors are all about embodying a "aspect" of Khaine, the Eldar's war god. Banshees are a specific aspect of Khaine that has feminine traits. Therefore, to embody Khaine as the Howling Banshee, you take on those traits.
>>
>>97670817
Its not explicitly stated in the old RT era white dwarf article but I think we can easily extrapolate from
>there are many female aspect warriors and they are not all Howling Banshees
>there are no boobplate aspects otherwise so they take on flat chestedness,
>thus eldar men would be taking on booba while following the banshee path.
>>
Path of the warrior shows all suits of armor are handed down from previous owners the new owner has the potential to resonate with, so you would get boobplate for everyone. Acting feminine is not required, that's your peace face, you only need to resonate with the war face while you wear the mask.

Standard boob plate.
It doesn't matter the gender of the wearer, the armour is designed and shaped to the aspect.
Banshees as an aspect have a feminine aspect, even if the participants do not, so the armour has the hair and the boob plate.

More extreme even. Given how Aspects work, putting on the war mask basically overrides their normal identity with their Aspect one.
In terms of identity or character (if not 'under-the-hood' biology), if they are in Banshee armour, they ARE female.

You don't just pop the war mask on and off at the end of the day like the literal mask.

>You don't just pop the war mask on and off at the end of the day like the literal mask.
Anon, read path of the warrior, that's literally the case. You are not in war form until you wear the mask. You not being able to get out of the war form even after removing the mask makes you an exarch. Masks are the whole point of it, because eldar rely on them to shield their true self from the extremes of emotions that plunging into a path brings.
Masks are so powerful that human miners that found some harlequin masks were compelled to wear them and started reenacting a play.

I know this is meant to be a subtle "I am liking this because of crossdressing fetish" post, but Eldar lore is genuinely fucking peak stuff in what can otherwise be a very drab and monotone setting.
That they're only ever inserted to job to space marines or (even more cruelly) guardsmen, is a travesty.
If you wrote eldar books with half the plot armour of space marine books they'd sell better than hot cakes.

Believe it or not I actually like it in a non-sexual way, both in them Banshees and for myself too. Don't ask me why cause I have no idea. I know for a fact I am not a transexual and I experience no arousal whatsoever doing it either, I just genuinely fucking love being girly sometimes. It makles me very happy. That's why I asked for the actual lore instead of just making a joke post or something like that. I thought people were joking about male Howling Bashees wearing hollow boob plate armour and obviously now I know they weren't and it's a serious part of their aspect's identity.

What are the chances of that? My favourite faction has a unit that I didn't even know encapsulates this extremely specific odd experience I live with down to a T. It's honestly really fucking cool to me.

What I mean with all this is to say that I'm genuinely fascinated by this little bit of Eldar lore completely seriously with no fetishes or shitpost involved. It makes them feel all the more bizarre and alien to human culture and it's exactly why I love them. They get more and more unique the more you learn about them.

BL lacks any writers that are capable of actually portraying the eldar properly in the first place. The Eldar are superhuman space elves that live for thousands of years and are canonically far more intelligent than humans, and experience a range of emotions beyond human experience. The midwits at BL are just too retarded to ever portray the Eldar well.
>>
>>97673176

In the games I run, I usually give elves animal ears and animal tails, and reserve the traditional pointy-eared look for half-elves.

Elves already have nature-themed associations, so I do not find this to be too great a stretch.

And yes, I often wind up giving them touches of East Asian culture, mostly China due to gacha brain rot.

Other people already answered: boobplate but hollow. However I like to think maybe they have some where the boob is solid wraithbone for the men.
Aeldari don't have body fat anyway so they're rather small boobas, which is also why they can probably be smooshed into male aspect plate. I always figured that the Howling Banshees exaggerated proportions because of GW's sculpts

That being said, there is no reason why the Eldar dude that joined the howling banshee would act effeminate (more than an Elat in general I mean). It's more about your affinity on how-to-destroy-shit. Your anger makes you wanna fly around and drop turds? Swooping hawk. Wanna burn shit to crisp? Fire dragon. Wanna scream and do melee? Howling Banshee Etc.

I always interpreted that - and before the Path novels, come to it - as being both physical and metaphorical. The physical mask on the helmet is part of the preparation ritual, but the main part ("aspect", even, heh) is the mental disassociation; wearing (masking) the personality of a warrior over one's own so that you don't get your jollies from the thrills and agonies of mortal combat. Induced schizophrenia, essentially. Harlequins aren't the only method actors in the species, it's just that the Banshee genderedness (? is that a word?) is more obvious than the others.
>>97679324
Also worth noting. You go to an Aspect that calls to you, that can teach a lesson your soul needs. Elaborate anger management, in a way.
>>97679428
It's well known that GW was fond of paying homage to 2000AD (and mythology in general), and that comic had a number of kick-ass women in it (pic rel), though really the Banshees are just riffing on the same Celtic mythology Slaine was anyway.

I just remembered this old Adrian Smith art of a fire dragon exarch that might be boobed. Sort of looks like it, hard to tell. Same for the one in the background. So I don't think female armour representations of other aspect warrior shrines are out of the question, so perhaps its possible with howling banshees.
>>
>>97671001
That's wrong you dingus. The banshees are technically an aspect of morai-heg who sent her banshees to harass khaine because she wanted to drink her own blood for omniscience, as she couldn't cut herself.
They're on a loan, tit for tat.

No no no, they actually LITERALLY grow bob and vagen when they put on the armor, infact all eldar do it whenever they want.

I'm honestly kind of surprised that GW didn't add female sculpts to the various aspect warrior refreshes given that they show up all the time in the various supplementary material, and especially since they decided to make Lhykhis a woman and her model is notably (but subtly) more feminine than the new Warp Spiders she released alongside.

Also I can't believe we're now 22 (!) years after Dawn of War releasing and GW still hasn't released a female Farseer miniature.

>especially since they decided to make Lhykhis a woman and her model is notably (but subtly) more feminine than the new Warp Spiders she released alongside
Forgot to add that this implies that the new miniatures are deliberately supposed to depict male Eldar and it's not like the Banshees where the gendered appearance is a key part of embodying that particular aspect of Khaine. Otherwise Lhykhis' base armour would be the same as her followers', as it is with the other Phoenix Lords.

Humans are disgusting to the Eldar. We look like ugly, primitive parodies of the perfection that is the Eldar form, that also canoncially just smell foul to the Eldar. Not to mention that humans in 40k are genocidal barbarians from the Eldar point of view. That is why they call humans Mon'keigh, which in Eldar tongue means "barbarians who ought to be exterminated".

They can add male banshees sculpts back in 2019 they but seems like their choise is abandon variation, like with guards or regular genestealers. And later, it affected on other aspects. Also, picrel
>>97697121
>and it's not like the Banshees where the gendered appearance is a key part of embodying that particular aspect of Khaine
That "gendered appearance" makes no sense, since in Khaine's hands each aspect primarily embodies him, and aspects is a gift to all eldars, even for dark kin. The fact that a some aspect attracts mostly women does not mean that it is inaccessible to a man. And it doesn't mean that man should wear female's breastplate, while females from other aspects should wear men's armour plate.

>Also, picrel
The Eldar range has somehow completely dodged the "ew icky boobplate" thing, that post was a very long time ago and Eldar boobplate hasn't gone anywhere - the brand new Corsairs that aren't even out yet have multiple bodies proudly sporting it. I don't think it's an intentional reduction in choice either as GW is perfectly happy with making mandatory mixed-sex Eldar kits; Guardians, Rangers, and the Corsairs all feature mandatory female bodies.

There's some other reasoning behind it, and for all we know it could turn out to be something as simple and silly as the design team being told to update the existing aspect warrior sculpts as faithfully as possible and the sculpts back then were also all male.

>That "gendered appearance" makes no sense, since in Khaine's hands each aspect primarily embodies him
Banshees are all female-presenting because they're cosplaying as the daughters of Morai-Heg; it's an aspect of Khaine now but unlike the others they didn't originate with him and so is defined by what they were before. And also because 30+ years ago GW was run by cool dudes who looked at the concept of crazy warrior women with big boobs and butts and went "hell yeah" and they made something up to justify it.

Because every of their units except aspects, have 60/40 % rule, like 6 female wyches and 4 male wyches or 6 male guardians and 4 female guardians
>it could turn out to be something as simple and silly as the design team being told to update the existing aspect warrior sculpts as faithfully as possible and the sculpts back then were also all male.
I think so, honestly, because its 100% accurate copy of old models (except the banshees butts are covered with triangle thing)
>Banshees are all female-presenting because they're cosplaying as the daughters of Morai-Heg;
Predominantly, but not all female, that's matter. Thats important, because Khaine is current holder of this aspect, he gave that path to males too and he himself became the best in this aspect, as in rest. It was never stated, but always implied, that aspect warriors had an alternative armour variation for the opposite gender. We already have male banshees since 2nd ed, without that troonverse by mike brooks. I also remind you about female incubus models from the 3rd ed
>it's an aspect of Khaine now but unlike the others they didn't originate with him and so is defined by what they were before.
And fire dragons cosplaying...dragons, striking scropions cosplaying... predators big scorpion Murekh its Khaine's form, but anyway , swooping hawks cosplaying.. killcam birds. Not all aspects belong to him before, but he own all of them

Elf thread I have a request of ye.

Years ago (about 2014/15) I found a hand drawn comic (black and white, I don't remember it having colour) in one of the elf threads of the time and saved it but the hard drive I had it saved on died.

The first frame was a pair of haughty elves that had returned to challenge the humans to battle after so many hundred/thousand years and mocking the humans for what they will bring to the battle this time around, the next couple of panels are of a human wearing world war two era GI clothing calling/muttering something unheard into a radio and then a bomber drops a nuke in the background and the GI just thumbs back to the mushroom cloud and the last panel is just the elves WTF'ing at it.

So many times I've gone into conversations needing this comic, but I cannot find it on google no matter what I search for. Both any other elegan/tg/entlemen happen to have it saved at all?

I leave a "high" elf as payment for thine services.

If you had the chance to create an Eldar video game, what would it be like? What genre would it be?

Personally, I would focus on creating a game featuring either Striking Scorpions or Banshees.
I loved the fighting mechanics in Enter the Matrix, so I would create something similar, or maybe something like Devil May Cry.

They are niche faction who retained their grimdark charm due to lack of blslop. However, the lack of marvel-tier blslop about them meant a lack of secondaries and nomodels (postsoviet-stans are full of these guys, who love "da lore" from youtube, wiki or memes), so without normies eldar and their lore were been untouched and unchanged for decades, untill recently brooksslop. Nowadays, for some reason, tau are the only faction that has not been affected by current things

Jes Goodwin struck a devil's bargain where GW promised to never mess with the visual design of his babies in exchange for the Eldar being made the lore writers' whipping boy.
>>
>>97716933
Maybe he was right. GW has never been known for its high-quality writing, so while everyone else is ready to kill each other over what and how a red-haired gay said to a furry-bara pedophile in Yaoi Heresy book 67/69, eldarfags will simply say "its written by X, so its not canon" about any shit. Its worked with Goto, worked with Thorpe, and it will work with Brooks except unprepared newfags, but these "audience" don't like creating something of their own instead of consuming corporate garbage, and so they will return back to Marvel's epic heroes (blue) And with the current GW's writting level it will be worse. For everyone

The Ynnari plotline was an element of the whole aborted "let's squat slaanesh" plan GW had at a time, and once that plan was pushed aside, the Ynnari were left without any real purpose.

It does not help that the fanbase of the Eldar never wanted a faction like the Ynnari to be a thing in the first place, and while the idea of an Eldar death cult seeking to awake Ynnead could have been cool and appealing to the broad Eldar fanbase, GW executed that idea in a very poor fashion.
Story and character wise, having the faction be basically entirely build around Yvraine was a retarded fucking choice, as was the way they went about introducing her, which basically made her a mary sue, that shat up both Commoragh (to a lesser extent by causing a dysjunction) and Biel-Tan (in a major way due to the fracturing), all the while having important pre-existing Eldar characters like Eldrad, Lelith and Jain-Zar rally around her, only to proceed to do fucking nothing signifigant to the storyline for the Eldar since. The only other major action Yvraine did was ressurect Guilliman which only served to fuel the retarded porn brained secondaries of 40k fandom to generate their obnoxious fanwank about Yvraine and Guilliman dating. It didn't help that the long term goal of the Ynnari of awakening Ynnead via the crone swords, was also rendered impossible as well.

Model wise, out of the 3 Ynnari models, only the Vizarch looks actually good. The lack of actual dedicated Ynnari troops unique to the faction tremendously harmed the long term life of the faction as well. Even if they are supposed to be the "all eldar kitchen sink" faction, them having ZERO models beyond the initial trio of Yvraine, Vizarch and the avatar of Ynnead or whatever the fuck it is called, basically left the faction without any actual visual identity of it's own. Assuming that the corsair models weren't originally supposed to be Ynnari models that were just rebranded as corsair ones of course.

The Ynnari were a plan of the previous CEO that wanted to push Slaanesh out from the setting, the Ynnari were the vehicle for that. Once that plan fell trough with a change of CEO, the Ynnari lost their purpose. I suspect that they will be soft squatted by being left on the wayside.

I think that the "estranged relatives that kind of hate each other" dynamic between the Eldar and the Dark Eldar works better than the "eternal, bitter blood enemies" schism of the Dark Elves and High Elves.

The former allows for more varied interactions between the different groups of Eldar than the later does with the elves of fantasy.

>>97723395
I think it's more of a "THIS is why WE can't have nice things" kind of relationship. They are, after all, remnants of an empire so depraved, that it awakened Slaanesh.
Dark Eldar serve as a constant reminder of what their race is capable of in their moment of weakness, and what they must never allow themselves to ever become again.
Basically, darkies are the violent degenerate hedonists that craftworlders deny themselves being, yet secretly know they too will succumb to this temptation should they ever let their guard down.
…kinda fucked up, if you think about it.

>>97723463
Yeah, that aspect is there as well. The Dark Eldar are like the fucked up druggie degenerate gang member cousins of the Craftworld eldar. There is still a degree of kinship between the two, that allows them to work together against common foes, but otherwise the Craftworlders steer the fuck clear from the Dark Eldar.

Dark eldar live in a twilight shadowrealm so they propably don't get that much sun tanning in general hence the paleness.

>>97725743
The suns are held within some sort of sub realms of their own and the light that shines from them to the dark city is not natural. The result is that Commoragh is in a sort of permanent twilight rather than properly illuminated by the captive stars.

If y'all want Elf x Human romance so badly why not write your own stuff? Either fanfic or original. I'm not even a racemixer fag but you just reminded me that I'm making a novel about just that precise thing actually.

Keeping that shit out of 40k is unironically extremely based because human x eldar romance does not fit into 40k at all, and fundamentally diminishes the Eldar by humanizing them and taking away from the fact that they are supposed to be space aliens that merely superficially resemble humans. They are supposed to have both alien minds and alien physiology according to their lore. Trying to introduce the whole human x elf romance trope to 40k just weakens the uniqueness the Eldar have.

Plus it is pretty fucking obvious that the people that clamor for that shit in 40k only want it due to fetishistic reasons. At best they want the cringe star crossed forbidden lovers shit, or worse it is literally some sort of raceplay fetish for them, as in "muh human dick conquering alien ladies" type of wankery.

>What are Dragonlance elves like?

No drow. "Dark Elves" are normal elves l, usually Silvanesti who have been banished and barred from elven kingdoms.

>Silvanesti

The OG "high" elves of the setting. Taller than others and has more delicate features. Tends to be very pale with white/black/bluish hair. Extremely racist and a cultural supremacist, to the point other elves find them insufferable. They like to modify or shape the growth of trees in their home.

>Qualinesti

"Normal" elves of the setting. Less reclusive and willing to go out and trade, but still smug as hell. Normal coloration, most half-elves are from Qualinesti/elf pairs. They left their smugger brethren after the Kinslayer Wars. They are closer to nature and prefer not to shape trees, but build around them.


>Kagonesti

Wild/Wood elves. Standard barbarian elves. Used to be considered slaves and were regularly hunted/captured in Qualinesti lands, and members of the lowly House Servitor caste in Silvanesti.

>Dargonesti

Sea elves. Very tall, isolationist, chaotic Good. Sometimes rescues sailors. Tuns into dolphins.

>Dimernesti

Sea Elves for shallow coastal waters. Bitter about losses, but still good. Turns into otters.

>Lucanesti

Largely extinct cave elves. Very pale with translucent second eyelids that let them see water and opals. Was enslaved by a human nation, escaped, and interbred with barbarian humans they had kinship with.

Guilliman is one of the most interesting characters in modern 40k for multiple reasons as he represents a level-headed individual put in power over the modern Imperium, a completely nightmarish task that's crushing him yet be still refuses to give up.
Yvraine's only notable contribution to anything is bringing Guilliman back. She has no character.

Would be interesting unless previous High Lords weren't literallywhos. And even now only one High Lord is playable, twice less than primarchs.

Yeah remember how 10th edition books said how desperate Imperium in holding off 4th Tyranic war and how Bobby throwing everything he had at hand to halt nids?
Nvm, new edition is comming and suddenly Bobby can pull half million marines to Ultramar alone.
Just like Vigilus

It is funny how the retards that actually defend the primarchslop and "advancing the storyline" of 40k consistently miss the fucking point of the entire hobby of it being about the plastic dudemen YOU collect, not some overarching gay & retarded storyline. I couldn't give rat's ass about some bl slop or what Guilliman or someone else is doing because to me 40k is a setting, not a story. The "story" of 40k justifies why all of the factions are at each other's throats and why there is nothing but war. People that want some fucking narratives or "relevance" to their factions are braindead npcs themselves that cannot come up with personal reasoning to why or what their dudemen are fighting for.

Lmao people haven't given a fuck about that since Cadia fell. Even then 90% of /your dudes/ has always been Marines, with most of the remaining 10% being Guard. Xenos /dudes/ have never been taken seriously and never will. Mobody gives a fuck about your headcanon reasoning behind why your Eldar are painted blue, they're just annoyed you brought fucking Eldar to the table.
Grow up, whining about the narrative is just a coping mechanism you use to escape the reality that xenos, especially Eldar, have never mattered.
