I'm on the side of the Eldar players here, I sure as fuck don't want you to pay $40 or whatever it costs to use your yellow Wraithguard, because y'know, I like fighting varied armies. If everyone who wants to run a Wraith army has to pay $40 for the privelige, less Iyanden armies will be seen, which will suck for the game and suck the variety out of it. We'll just see more of the same Heldrakes and Necrons.

im looking forward and going to buy the book when it is released im not bothered what people say about it, i know it got alot of fluff in it and a few pages of rules to better run a themed army which is what i wanna do, im also hoping it might go into a bit detail about what shrines remain on the craftworld( colour schemes) and that kind of thing and with it being fluff heavy heres hoping lol.

This book just takes the idea further with the ability to have a Wraithlord or Wraithknight warlord, a Runes of Battle Primaris that gives Wraithguard/Blade units in 12" Battlefocus and Furious Charge (S8, AP2 axes on the charge) and up to 5 Spiritseers in a single HQ slot.
This book doesn't replace what the main codex does, but it lets you take the idea even further and I like that.

Hi all!
About the new Iyanden primaris psychic power for Runes of Battle, do you think that GW will give us Its psychic card for free into the codex supplement?
Else people, like me, that bought the power decks will feel a bite "scrappy" because we miss a card.
What do you think?
Kind regards!

WadoW - you used the word 'free' in relation to GW....
So the answer will be 2 letters, starts with N and ends in O.

My apologies for my heretic text, but I was imagining the Iyanden Codex into a plastic bag like the WD and a psychic power card loose moving up and down.
Perhaps you can obtain one for "free" "buying" the next month WD.

From Warseer via BOLS:
Iyanden Book Confirmed Hard version - Page 9
Sadly no way to play Iyanna (only in the scenarios). This turns me very, very, very sad. I had the hope to can play an Iyanden themed army leaded by Iyanna.
To use her weapon in an "ordinary" spiritseer doesn't mean to play Iyanna. I wanted special rules from she, herself profile (W3, ML3...), and equip like the Armour of Vaul. No matter if She was taken one full HQ slot.
I'm very sad.

So sort-of rules for Iyanna and everything else looks quite nice too.

Edit: ok the above isn't strictly true; there are two scenarios you can use her in. She's just a free upgrade to a spiritseer and gives you ML3. Can't use her in regular games.
Voice of Twilight: WC2
Blessing. Gives all friendly wraithguard, wraithblade, wraithlord and wraithknight models within 12" Battle Focus and Furious Charge.
Pretty nasty imo, but doesn't entirely make up for lack of conceal/reveal.
Warlord traits:
1 D3 re-rolls per game for the walord
2 Warlord and all units within 12" have FnP (6+)
3 Warlord and his unit have hatred
4 Warlord has the spirit mark rule. if he already has it he can mark 2 units per turn.
5 Warlord and his unit has +1 to deny the witch rolls
6 Warlord may re-roll failed saves. loses the ability once he suffers and unsaved wound
Celestial Lance
6" S8 AP2 Assault 1, Lance, Spirit Shatter (If it kills a character or MC, place the large blast marker over the slain model and all units (friend and foe) suffer a hit at the slain units toughness with AP -)
S+3 AP2 Melee, Impact, Lance, Spirit Shatter
Soulshrive
S3 AP2 Melee, Mastercrafted, Spiritstealer (+1S to every unsaved wound caused earlier in the game)
Wraithforge Stone
During each of your movement phases, nominate a single wraithknight/wraithlord within 6". On a 3+ they gain a lost wound.
Guardian Helm
Always passes LoS rolls in units of wraithguard/wraithblades and wraithguard/wraithblade models can accept challenges if in the same unit.
Spear of Teuthlas (psyker only) -------Iyannas weapon!!!!
18" S9 AP - Assault 1, Fleshbane, Rending
SUser Ap - Melee, Armourbane, Fleshbane, Rending

a little annoyed with this book, i was very excited about getting the book but then i realized it is the same price as the codex for the physical copy and we are not really getting much for that price.(i could understand if it was a full iyanden codex and not just a supplement and i know people are going to say "well its GW what do you expect", i will tell you what i expect. i expect to be taken out to dinner before they screw me.)
"Death? You want death?
I'm afraid that would be far too boring.

I don't agree when people claim that GW is screwing them. This book is 1,000% optional. You have everything you need in the main codex to play Iyanden, this just adds some more tweaks for those who want to take that a little further. You don't need it if you don't want it (unlike a codex which you NEED to have the most recent one for your army) so GW isn't screwing you.
It's a nice addition for those who want it, everyone else can be more than content with the regular book.
