Otanara [Eldar: Dark Spider]..........100 points (incl. Wargear)
The Exarch known as Otanara has not been seen until recently. His suit lay uninhabited and forgotten on a remote world on the fringes of the galaxy for hundreds of years. The result of a forgotten battle by long-dead armies. It was quite by chance that a band of Scouts exploring the once populated sector found his suit and returned with it. His new incarnation has already started, and with it comes the unique 6-limbed fighting style that is taught in the Warp Spider shrines.
Troop Type | M | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld |
Otanara | 5 | 6 | 6 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 8 | 2(+1) | 10 |
Armour: Exarch Armour (3+Save)
Wargear: Warp Spider Jump Generator.
Otanara may have up to two wargear cards. These must always be Multi-spinner and Combat Blades.
Exarch Powers: None
Multi-Spinner ...... 20 pts.
The Warp Spider Aspect Warriors use a unique mono-filament gun called
the Death Spinner. This version of the weapon consists of two smaller spinner-heads
mounted on independent arms. These artificial limbs operate completely upon the Exarchs
thoughts by psychic nodes hard-wired into his helmet. Essentially another pair of arms, it
enables the Exarch to fire the weapon as many times as his Attacks characteristic,
ie. twice - once for each arm (use the normal flamer template), or may be combined into a
single cloud (using the heavy flamer template). The combat blades on each spinner-head are
used as simple pincers, increasing the Exarchs Attacks characteristic by 1 in Close
Combat only.
Power Blades ...... 10 pts.
Unique to Warp Spider Exarchs, the customized dual Power Blades form an effective close combat weapon. The two blades are fixed to the forearms of the Exarchs armour plating and are shorter than a normal Power sword. The Exarch is therefore not counted as having an additional assault weapon, but rather allows him to parry twice instead.

[Author's Note: This character is what I envision as a standard 100 point Warp Spider Exarch. No Wargear exists for what the model itself depicts, so this is a reasonable alternative to a Death Spinner with Fast Shot (too expensive). - Kestrel]
