More 5th edition rumors regarding skimmers and fast vehicles suggest a toning down of speed from 24” overall to 18” overall. If this is true it is going to cut down on the speed and redeployment capability of my warhost. Right now I can completely be on the other side of the board in two turns, in 5th, Star Engines might be a real option now, but that is adding more points to even more fragile units- in my case vypers. If it’s true my jetbikes are going to be faster then my vypers and wave serpents?

Erm if the torbo boost is being changed from 24" to 18", you understand that that will effect our jet bikes too right?
Ah well, the onlt thing I'm NOT liking at the moment is that troops may become the only unit type that can take table quaters. If that happens I'm getting IG ._. IG hoard FTW? (waves tiny and useless flag)
Jetbikes also- the realy question and perhaps the only work around that I can not find for my army is if my jetbikes can no longer move 6" in the assault phase. If that is removed my army is done!
That's a fair point.
Well I know now that you will no longer be able to shoot threw your own units, unless the right size to do so. Skimmers WILL have a 5+cover roll to gain the glancing hits only when they have moved 7"+, instead of the straight glancing hits only for moving 7"+.
I may end up dropping my Vypers and taking an extra squad of Bikes or another fire prism tank in my list. making me have three. What ever happens I'm not buying any more Eldar units until I see the rule changes.
I wonder if jetbikes will be able to count as skimmers and shoot over units?
