    So, asked about Shining Spears on Twitch. They said they might have to do them for jetbikes! So that's a good sign.

    On the other hand, from how they answered. It seems GW said no to other aspects riding bikes. As aspect warriors are very 'rigid'.

    SO that was you! just heard it

    Yeah sound like those bikes are shining spear exclusive and not Windriders like I suspected they would be.

    I guess they will forcefully auto change your class to shining spears when you select the bikes or something like cavalrymen and engineers in Battlefield 1 when you selected a vehicle or horse.

    Sweet, and did they say that marines on bikes will be forced into being assault marines, because that's how the codex works and is also very rigid?

    No? Just eldar? Oh, ok then.

    At least we will have a class whos combat style is grav rams, cheese that is very cannon.

    If that gets nerfed then we can petition to remove the melee weapons from JPA just for balance reasons

    Makes sense. But Warlocks and Farseers aren't aspects :)

    Hope they get jetbikes too, because they can on the TT

    I like the idea of bikes being a Shining Spear exclusive thing. If someone wants to get from place to place that's what Wave Serpents are for. Move with your squad or take the long walk of shame to whichever point you want to lone-wolf.
  7. Or, convince your entire squad to take shining spears, somehow get them into an arrowhead formation, and perform devastating charges? Sound good? Sounds good.

    First we have to find whoever hid Eldar teamwork we used to have! =p

    Lol, bikes 'soon'.

    Still waiting for Vehicle Loadouts and maps, so don't get your panties in a bunch for something that won't release in less than 1 or 2 years
