Warlock

"The burden of leadership lies with us."

Warlocks are powerful psykers that lead their fellow Eldar into battle.

Tactics

Warlocks are the leaders of Guardian Squads that initially do little other than provide a damage bonus and detection. However, a Guardian squad without a Warlock will perform rather poorly as the Warlock provides the best damage bonus out of all squad leaders. It is essential to research Mysticism if you plan on making serious use of your Guardian Squad or later the Seer Council. Mysticism provides better damage for the Warlock, better defense for the squad, and access to the abilities Entanglement and Embolden. Use Embolden to provide extra morale for your squad before an engagement and Entanglement to trap melee squads. Entanglement is especially devastating if used in conjunction with Dark Reaper Squads or Warp Spider Squads and is even effective against jump troops.
