Fire Prisms have always been one of my favorite models but it was not as playable in many lists for a long time. The newest updates for the upcoming codex may change that, check it out.

The Aeldari engineers have clearly been hard at work, because the prism cannon is now deadlier than ever before, and its dispersed pulse fire mode seems to have been designed specifically to kill Space Marines.Its Strength makes a mockery of a Space Marine’s supposedly superhuman Toughness, that Armour Penetration will blast through their much-vaunted power armour, and Damage 2 kills regular Space Marines stone dead.* With the Blast rule, it’s also great for chewing your way through any of those pesky horde armies too.For harder targets, its full-power mode is also better in the new codex. The focused lance is ideal for taking out enemy armour.But you know what’s even better for taking out the toughest enemy units, such as Imperial Knights? More Fire Prisms! And don’t just shoot them all separately – pool their devastating firepower into one colossal blast with the Linked Fire Stratagem.So, that’s a possible six Strength 14 shots, doing up to 18D3 Damage and ignoring invulnerable saves! It’s time to start believing in the power of crystals.
