HQ:
Avatar: Not a Special Character. Cost around 155pts. Current stats with a change of +1Int +1A BS5 3+/4++ save. All Eldar within 12” will gain Fearless, but will not have +1 CC resolution anymore. Wailing Doom ranged attack (as melta gun). Immune to Flamer an Melta type weapons.
Farseer: They will be T3 and cost around 55pts. Ghosthelm, pistol & Witchblade as standard EQ (Ghosthelm will give a 3+ save against POW) he may upgrade Witchblade to a Singing Spear(improved stats). He may take a Retinue of 3-10 Warlocks. Seerer Counsel is said not to be in the new dex. So far they still have the same powers, Rumor of slight changes to all the powers, more effective and some cheaper, Eldritchstorm (slightly stronger vs. Vehicles), plus Doom (cast on an enemy unit, May re-roll to wound, effects both shooting and CC). They can purchase Wargear from the Armory.
Warlocks: Will be around 25pts, a Warlock may be upgraded to a Spiritseer for +5pts, all the regular Warlock powers are still available, but rumored that they are slightly changed. Warlocks will now be both a Retinue for the Farseers and as a troop add-on character (this does not take a Warlock from the Farseer Retinue). They will have standard EQ of Witchblade & Pistol but may upgrade Weapons to Singing Spear at +3 pts and have a Power weapon option, and may get other Wargear from Armory.
Autarch: He will be an IC he will have a list of Aspect Wargear that he may purchase from. This will consist of 4 sub groups Movement/Headgear/one handed weapons/Two handed weapons. He may choose from any basic Aspect gear but none of the Exarch only gear, and he will not have access to Exarch Powers (but may join an Aspect squad that has an Exarch and gain that Squads ability), (standard EQ Shuriken Pistol, Plasma/Haywire grenades and force shield), plus whatever Wargear choice he takes from the armory. His supposed stats are WS6 BS6 S3 T3 W3 A3 I6 LD10 3+/ 4++ save. Path of Command-He is supposed to be able to affect reserves (possible +1 on the strategy rating rolls, and +1 to bring in reserves). The Autarch will not have the option to take a Retinue.
As I understand it the Autarch Aspect Wargear options should be something like this:
Movement Helm 1 HW 2 HW
SH Wings Banshee mask Laser Lance (if on Jetbike) Dire Catapult
WS Jumppack Mana blaster Scorpion Chainsword Fusion Blaster
Eldar Jet Bike Power Weapon Reaper Launcher
Las Blaster
Death Spinner
He will have access to grenade options, and possible some other Wargear. (Bright Lance is not to be an Option)
As a character he can take two 1HW or may take one 1HW and one 2HW
