Lasblaster

The Lasblaster is an Aeldari Laser Weapon utilised exclusively by Swooping Hawks Aspect Warriors. Aeldari lasers use psychically grown crystals to refine their already intense bursts to their optimum potency.

Many Aeldari consider Laser Weapons the most elegant of all, exulting in the fact that their technological mastery extends even to light itself.

These include the Swooping Hawks Aspect Warriors, who have transformed the practice of pinpoint laser fire into an art in itself. Their Exarchs lead them in this deadly technique, utilising sustained fusillades of deadly light to overwhelm their foes.

The Lasblaster is lower in strength than other Aeldari weapons but has a range advantage that suits it to assault troops.

Cloudsweeper

The Cloudsweeper is a variant Lasblaster that fires in three-round-bursts, unlike the traditional single-shot Lasblaster. It sacrifices a modicum of accuracy for rate of fire.

Those Swooping Hawks who use Cloudsweepers like to strike from high above their targets, placing themselves in minimal danger of actually being shot at.

From time to time they may find their wings "clipped," so to speak, and they're forced into close combat.

Hawk's Talon

A Hawk's Talon is a much more powerful version of the Lasblaster, with more damage per shot. The Hawk's Talon is used exclusively by Swooping Hawk Exarchs.
