The Swooping Hawks take their name from the wild hunting birds of the Eldar myths, synonymous with vengeance and retribution. In ancient times, the Eldar believed that the spirit of a murdered Eldar would pass into a hawk and hover above the killer as a mark of guilt. The winged Aspect Warriors who take that hawk as their symbol, however, play a much more active role in their foe's destruction.

The Swooping Hawks have the ability to launch high into the air at a moment's notice. Their wings are made from vibrating feather plates and incorporate small gravitic lifters. When the Hawks fly, these wings vibrate with such speed they turn into a blur of colour. The ritual weapons of this Aspect are the Lasblaster – a far more efficient energy weapon than the clumsy Lasgun of the Imperium – and the grenade pack that they use against personnel and artillery to great effect.

You may include a unit of Swooping Hawks in your Eldar army as a Fast Attack choice.
