Howling Banshees is a basic infantry squad that the Eldar can produce.
Overview[]
This squad specializes in leaping in close range to infantry, shattering their morale, and dealing exceptional damage. The squad does not deal much damage against armor or structures.
This squad is very effective against infantry and heavy infantry early on in the game, especially if you purchase the upgrade from the Soul Shrine!
Abilities[]
War Shout
Requires: Call of War
The Banshee Exarch issues an ear-splitting battlecry, dealing massive morale damage to nearby enemy units. Has no effect on units not affected by morale.
Hotkey: W
Upgrades[]
Call of War Research - found in Soul Shrine, provides massive boosts in stats for the squad, including armor, damage, movement speed, and an ability.
