THEWARHAMMER40,000GAME
To play an Exodite army in the universe of the
41st millenium you need the Warhammer 40,000
rulebook. If you want to use the Exodite Army to
full effect you also need Codex: Eldar, because
some Exodite troops are available in this codex
but their rules are not written out due to
copyright reasons. This codex is a fanwork and
you will need your opponent’s agreement to play
an Exodite army by the rules in this codex. If
your opponent does not agree on using this
book, there is a short guide on how to use your
miniatures built for use with this codex by the
rules of Codex: Eldar.
WHYCOLLECTANEXODITEARMY?
Exodites are a fast and close combat heavy
force with little, but powerful fire support and the
for the Eldar race typical mighty psykers
enhance their troops’ effectivity even further. The
whole army can be compiled of Troops mounted
on different kinds of creatures ranging from
agressive beasts to huge, even more aggressive
beasts.
The downside of the Exodite army is that their
troops are low in numbers and can only rely on
sporadic fire support.
If you like armies consisting mostly of cavalry
formations, the feeling of a savage tribe
combined with the highly advanced technology
of the eldar or simply are interested in reptiles or
dinosaurs, Exodites are an excellent choice for
you. You can also convert your army with other
creatures as mounts, you can use whatever you
see fit to customize your army to match your
taste.

Exodite army by the rules of Codex: Eldar if an
opponent does not agree on using this book.
The Exodite Warhost
The last section will contain pictures of Exodite
conversions and guides how to build or paint
them and what models you can use to create the
individual Exodite units. This section is soon to
come.

 EXODITEARMIES
This section of the codex details the units of the
Exodite army, their special rules and wargear.
Each entry gives a description of the unit and
details the unit’s rules to use them in your games
of Warhammer 40,000. Each entry is broken up
into several categories:
Special Rules: These are rules that apply to the
unit individually and make the unit individual.
These rules always apply to that unit.
Wargear: Many Exodite units have individual
wargear detailed in their entry. These items are
only used by Exodites and most of them are
exclusive to the unit they are listed with. Some of
this wargear is automatically included in that unit
while other items are optional, this is detailed in
the army list in the next section of the codex.

EXODITEPSYCHICPOWERS
Exodite psykers are among the most powerful psykers in the galaxy. Their powers focus on
warding, guiding and healing Exodite warriors. The most commonly used powers of these are
healing powers, practiced by many Shamans, and taught by the much more proficient Master
Healers. Only the most powerful of exodite Psylers, the Seers wield powers beyond simple
healing. They can empower their kin or destroy their enemies with a thought.
All psychic powers available to Shamans, Master Healers and Seers are listed below.

Executioner
The Seer projects his spirit away from his body
to attack an enemy. This psychic power is
used in the shooting phase instead of firing a
weapon. Choose an enemy model in line of
sight and within 24” of the seer. Place a round
marker of the size of the Seer’s base in contact
with the chosen model. The Seer and the
model or unit he is in contact with immediately
resolve an extra combat phase as if the Seer
were in place of the marker. The Seer counts
as charging and attacks with an initiative of 1.
He benefits from all wargear he is armed with
but no psychic powers. After the combat has
been resolved remove the marker and
continue the shooting phase as normal. If the
marker was wounded the Seer takes no
damage.
Heal
Shamans conjure the psychic energy of the
World Spirit to heal the wounds of his
companions. Healer is a permanently active
Power and does not require a Psychic test to
work. The psyker’s unit benefits from the Feel
no Pain universal special rule but rolls to
ignore unsaved wounds only succeed at a
result of 6.
Improve
The Seer’s power flows through the bodies of
his brethren and empowers them to
supernatural feats. Choose a unit within 6” of
the Seer. All models of the chosen unit gain
+1 on one of the following characteristics:
weapon skill, strength, attacks or initiative. If
used for the strength bonus on a megadon or
Carnosaur Lord, choose wether the regular or
the Riders attacks are improved.
Isha’s Grace
The Seer concentrates on the future to
foresee the enemy’s attacks. Choose an
Exodite unit within 6” of the Seer. All models of
this unit gain a cover save equal to their
armour save until the start of the next exodite
turn. Note that this save is additional to their
armour save and does not replace it.
Restore
Master Healers are much more familiar with
the World Spirit’s healing energies. The
psyker’s unit benefits from the Feel no Pain

EXODITEMOUNTS
Exodites employ various animals as cavalry mounts to charge to battle on. Traditionally the animals
used are some form of large reptiles or dinosaurs, but not every maiden world is ihabited by these
creatures. An Exodite army may as well use animals of different kinds. Instead of Pterosaurs they
might use large birds, or sabertooth cats instead of Dragons and a more slender kind of cat for
Raptors. Instead of a Megadon a kind of Mammoth might be employed. In this codex the animals used
as mounts or warbeasts are each given a specific name according to the traditional image of Exodites,
but this should not stop you from using anything else suitable.

Dragon
The most popular of Exodite mounts is known as
Dragon. A fast but resilient bipedal, carnivorous
reptile. These creatures have a thick hide that
can even protect them from small caliber gunfire.
Most mounted Exodite troops are mounted on
Dragons, which not only carry them into combat
swiftly but also deliver attacks with their claws
and teeth, effectively increasing the rider’s
efficiency in close combat. The Dragon mount
confers a +1 bonus to the rider’s strength,
toughness, attack and armour save values and
changes its unit type to cavalry. Attacks using a
fusion spear, laser- or shock lance do not gain
the strength bonus from the dragon mount.
Attacks using a weapon multiplying the wielders
strength add the dragon’s strength bonus after
the base strength value has been multiplied.
Pterosaur
Pterosaurs are flying reptiles that are employed
for their sheer speed and mobility. A pterosaur
does not have any valuable abilities for close-up
combat, but it can traverse great distances and
hindering terrain easily through the air and evade
enemy fire with nimble manoeuvres. Pterosaurs
are usually used for close range firefights, where
the riders dash forward to hail the enemy with fire
and then retreat into cover before enemy troops
can return fire. The Pterosaur mount changes
the rider’s unit type to Eldar-Jetbike. A model
mounted on a Pterosaur does not recieve the
bonus to toughness bikes usually grant and is
not allowed to use the turbo boost special rule.
Raptor
Raptors are of similar build as Dragons, though
lighter and even faster. They are not as tough as
Dragons but make up for this disadvantage with
wild agility. Raptors being more nimble than
Dragons are commonly used by Scout troops for
quick and silent manoeuvres. The Raptor mount
confers a +1 bonus to the rider’s weapon skill
and initiative values and a +2 two bonus to his
attack value and changes its unit type to cavalry.
A model on a raptor mount may not carry any
laser lances, shock lances, fusion spears or
weapons with the heavy type.

 EXODITEARMYLIST
The following pages contain an army list that
enables you to field an Exodite army and fight
battles using the scenarios included in the
Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. It also provides
you with the basic information you'll need in
order to field an Exodite army in using Codex
Eldar without any unofficial rules.
The army list is split into five sections. All the
squads, creatures, and characters in the army
are placed into one of these depending upon
their role on the battlefield. Each model is also
given a points value, which varies depending on
how effective that model is in battle. Before you
choose an army, you will need to agree with your
opponent upon a scenario and the total number
of points each of you will spend. Then you can
proceed to pick your army as described below.
USING A FORCE ORGANISATION CHART
The army lists are used in conjunction with the
force organisation chart from a scenario. Each
chart is split into five categories that correspond
to the sections in the army list, and each
category has one or more boxes. Each box
indicates that you may make one choice from
that section of the army list, while a dark-toned
box means that you must make a choice from
that section. Note that unless a model or vehicle
forms part of a squad or squadron, it is a single
choice from what is available to your army.
USING THE ARMY LISTS
To make a choice, look in the relevant section of
the army list and decide what unit you want to
have in your army, how many models there will
be in it, and which upgrades you want (if any).
Remember that you cannot field models that are
equipped with weapons or wargear not shown on
the model. Once this is done subtract the points
value of the unit from your total points, and then
go back and make another choice. Continue
doing this until you have spent all your points.
Then you're ready to do battle!
ARMY LIST ENTRIES
Each army list entry consists of the following:
Unit Name: The type of unit, which may also
show a limitation on the maximum number of
choices you can make of that unit type.
Profile: These are the characteristics of that unit
type, including its points cost. Where the unit has
different warriors, there may be more than one
profile.
Unit size: This shows the number of models in
the unit, or the number of models you may take
for one choice from the force organisation chart.
Often this is a variable amount, in which case it
shows the minimum and maximum unit size.
Wargear: This is the unit's standard wargear.
Where models in a unit possess different
equipment, this will be noted. Where equipment
is noted as 'All' every model comes equipped
with it in addition to any additional equipment
they may be described as having.
Special Rules: This is where you'll find any
special rules that apply to the unit. See the
Forces of the Cult section for the details of these
rules.
Options: This lists the different weapons and
equipment options for the unit and any additional
points for taking these options. It may also
include an option to upgrade the squad to
include a character.
