Product Information

The Masque's name stems from the eighteenth verse of the third act of the Fall; that infamous scene wherein Cegorach witnesses the darkest time ever to have befallen his wayward children. The Dance Without End wear the Rune of Myriad Paths, symbolising both Cegorach's knowledge of the Webway and the endless nature of his war. The dual-aspect of their nature serves them well when abroad in the galaxy, as Harlequins are reckoned to be the deadliest combatants of all the Eldar.

They view the galaxy's other intelligent races as vermin, there only to serve as the butt of its shockingly violent pranks and jests. With lightning-fast movements and deadly skills, these warriors strike fear into the hearts of their enemies before they even have a chance to react.Whether you’re a fan of the Harlequin Troupes or just looking for a powerful addition to your army, this box set is a must-have.

In battle, they fight with a reckless abandon that is horrific to bear witness to, and even in death they take dozens of the foe screaming with them to the grave.It is a spectacle of destruction as beautiful as it is murderous, as Troupes of warriors leap and bound through the enemy, slaughtering the foe even as Skyweavers cut off lines of retreat, herding the enemy onto the waiting guns of the Voidweavers and Death Jesters. The Emperor's Children eventually retreat before the resultant barrage of necromantic energy, abandoning their dead and pursued every step of the way by vengeful Harlequins and unflinching, tireless ghost warriors. However it happens, once an Eldar becomes a Harlequin, every aspect of their old identity is erased.

M41) - A Great Harlequin wins the Commorrite Dance of the Blinding Blade, fighting with impossible speed and skill. Viewed with superstitious awe, these ritual performances remind the Aeldari of the gods they once knew and of the Fall of their ancient race, ensuring that their people retain some semblance of racial unity. The Laughing God is the only authority that the Harlequins recognise, and their every deed is thought to be in furtherance of his own inscrutable agenda.These highly skilled and versatile warriors bring a touch of enigmatic artistry to the battlefield, leaving their foes bewildered and defeated. To reach this fabled realm, one must court madness itself, travelling secret passages through the Webway, evading the gaze of the horrifying entities that stand guard, and unlocking one of the library's cunningly hidden entrances amid veils of riddle and illusion.
