Enslaver

Enslaver is a diabolical vehicle used by the Dark Eldar to capture slaves.
Like all DE vehicles it is fiendishly fast although weakly armored. The
Enslaver is armed with net throwers which fire a net of psychoactive
wraithcrystal fibres. The net is relatively thin but very strong, and
contains a psychic charge which renders anybody caught inside totally
inactive without causing them any physical harm. The Enslaver then moves to
the netted victims and hauls them inside to be transported away.

The net thrower fires an individual web template (the Doomweaver template).
Take one template and place it over the intended target anywhere within LOS
and range. Roll a scatter die and if you roll an arrow the template scatters
1D6 cm. Place the template number-side up in the location indicated with the
number one printed on it towards the firing model the attack. The other two
templates are placed joining the original template on a random edge
(determined by rolling a 2D6)- if you roll the same edge twice the second
template is wasted. Anything under the template is hit on 4+. Since the
net's charge is psychic, only psychic saving throws apply. The net itself is
material, however, so it can't be nullified by psychic powers. The net is
effective only against infantry. Place any stands hit upside down. When the
Enslaver moves within 6cm it captures any affected stands. The Dark Eldar
player receives VP for them as per the capture rules.


Move: 35cm
Save: 4+
CAF: +1
Weapons:

Net Thrower
range 50cm
attack dice: template
to-hit: special
Save mod: special

Splinter rifles:
range 15cm
attack dice: 3
to-hit: 6+
Save mod: 0

Notes: Skimmer, special rules.

Comments? This probably won't be too effective but a nice unit for added
army character. And no, this has not been playtested in any way.
