The Swooping Hawks are a highly air-mobile Eldar Aspect Warrior. They take their name from the wild hunting birds of the Eldar myths, who it was believed in ancient times would contain the spirit of a murdered Eldar and hover above their killers as a mark of guilt. The winged Aspect Warriors who take that hawk as their symbol, however, play a much more active role in their foe's destruction.[3]
The Swooping Hawks have the ability to launch high into the air at a moment's notice with their use of their armored wings. These are made from vibrating feather plates that incorporate small gravitic lifters, which makes them vibrate with such speed they turn into a blur of color.[3]
The ritual weapons of this Aspect are the Lasblaster (a far more efficient energy weapon than the clumsy Lasgun or the Imperium) and the Grenade Pack. Grenade Packs contain both anti-personnel grenades for fly-by attacks and haywire grenades for disabling enemy artillery.[3]
Equipment
The Swooping Hawk Aspect Warriors are equipped with:
- Lasblaster.[3]
- Plasma Grenades.[3]
- Haywire Grenades.[3]
- Swooping Hawk Grenade Pack.[3]
- Swooping Hawk Wings.[3]
- Aspect Armor.
Exarch
In addition to the wargear of the aspect, the Exarch can be armed with a number of special weapons:
Exarch abilities:
- Skyleap - The Exarch has an expansive knowledge of the best moment to redeploy on the battlefield. Led by the Exarch, the Swooping Hawks can fly into the air and land in a tactically better position.[3]
- Intercept - Under the guidance of the Exarch the Swooping Hawk squad can easily catch and attack vehicles with ease, even fast, evasive, skimmers.[3]
Phoenix Lord
The Phoenix Lord of the Swooping Hawks is Baharroth, The Cry of the Wind.
