I was admittedly flummoxed by the announcement that the forthcoming Eldar update would round out the remaining Aspect Warriors and Phoenix Lords when that seemed like exactly the kind of specialist unit that you'd want to use to sell Kill Team sets, but sure enough that is exactly what Games Workshop is poised to do.

We've already seen the spicy elf so the rest of his boys aren't much of a surprise. All of these kits have been incredibly faithful to the 2nd Edition sculpts and that remains the case with all three of the Aspects revealed today.

Swooping Hawks have probably benefitted the most from their long delay as the production team learned how best to make "in-flight" poses work for miniature that are very much subject to the laws of gravity. I have already heard some early grousing that people don't like the Asuryani ruins they're posed atop, and to those people I say get good at basing – there is literally nothing stopping you from pinning them to the battlefield detritus of your choice.

Warp Spiders are probably the most changed of the lot, if only because the switch to plastic enables the model to more accurately represent what it was trying to depict in the first place. It does a fantastic job of unscrunching the tiny, hunchbacked pewter models that were limited by the realities of centrifugal casting molten lead.

And of course, Phoenix Lords including for the first time Lhykis the Whispering Web, Phoenix Lord of the Warp Spiders. This has been a hole in the Eldar range since the '90s, so hopefully they make her introduction interesting in the codex.

I know this will never happen in your dragon fic, but I'm kind of curious. How do you think things would work if Katara and/or Sokka somehow gained the same ability as their partners to go back and forth between being humans and dragons?

Sokka and Katara would be water dragons opposed to fire dragons so they aren't as big as the others in dragon form and can't breathe fire or fly. Thankfully, the ocean is nearby so they can figure out things there. They discovered their wings are meant for swimming (much like penguin wings).

If it happens at home, Hakoda and Kya would immediately rush them to the Fire Family's house. Ursa would be glad to teach them how to manage the shifting and being a dragon. She's also thrilled there are more dragons.

The siblings would have a hard time adjusting to the heighten senses though. They have to wear ear coverings for the first couple of weeks before getting used to it. Katara gets especially upset when she accidently rips up one of her dolls with her claws. They would also face more discrimination being both foreigners and "demons" now.

On the brighter side, Sokka would enjoy hunting with Azula in the forest and Katara would love sunbathing with Zuko. In return, the water siblings will try to teach Zuko and Azula how to swim. Fire dragons don't mix well with water, so it doesn't go too well. Zuko and Azula opt to sunbath on the sand whenever they go to ocean. All four of them would love rough housing especially now that the fire siblings don't have to hold back as much.

Also, Ozai would help Hakoda and Kya dragon proof their house and how to cuddle the pups without throwing out their back (much). They'll move to the lighthouse to be right at the ocean and away from prying eyes. It's also easier for the Fire Family to visit in dragon form.

Thanks for the ask 💖

Squad of 3rd Edition Fire Dragons painted up!

These sculpts were controversial when they were released and, while I can definitely see where some of it’s coming from, I just find the scaly loin cloths and forehead crest details so charming. They’ve definitely been designed to look more like the Phoenix Lord Fuegan, whom I’ll likely get ahold of at some point in the future as well.

My decent into golden trim induced madness continues. Finished up the last of my unpainted daemon engines and some fire dragons I am going to bring to LVO.

Gonna be my first time going this year and I am extremely excited for that extremely nerdy weekend.
