This is SprueSentry strategy commentary, not official rules. The detachment rule, stratagems and enhancements below are taken from the free Aeldari Faction Pack version 1.3, legal for matched play from 26 August 2026. Detachment Point costs and enhancement points are not in that document; they are checked against the official Munitorum Field Manual web edition, but points move with balance updates, so treat the values here as a planning aid and confirm them in the Warhammer 40,000 app before a game.
While an objective marker is under your control, each time an enemy unit ends a Normal, Advance, Fall Back or Charge move within range of it, roll a D6: on a 2+ that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. Anhrathe units gain Void Thieves, which keeps an objective under your control until the opponent out-controls it. Veterans of the Void lets each Anhrathe unit take one unique Corsair Enhancement, paid for by increasing that unit's points cost.
1CP. One Rangers or Shroud Runners unit that has not shot gains [IGNORES COVER] and [RAPID FIRE 1] on its ranged weapons and improves their Armour Penetration by 1.
1CP. One Aeldari unit that has not fought re-rolls Wound rolls of 1; an Anhrathe unit re-rolls the Wound roll outright against enemies within range of an objective.
1CP. Just after an Anhrathe unit destroys an enemy unit with shooting, it can make a Normal move of up to D6+1".
1CP. Just after an Aeldari unit Falls Back, it can charge this turn. If it is Anhrathe, also roll six D6 against an enemy it was engaging: 1 mortal wound for each 4+.
1CP. A targeted Aeldari Infantry unit within range of an objective you control gains Stealth and can only be shot from within 18" this phase.
1CP. An Aeldari Infantry unit that lost models to shooting, and is neither Battle-shocked nor engaged, makes a surge move of up to D6+1".
Anhrathe Infantry unit only. Models in this unit have a 5+ invulnerable save.
Anhrathe unit only. Models in this unit have Deep Strike, and once per battle, at the end of your opponent's turn, an unengaged bearer's unit can remove itself into Strategic Reserves.
Anhrathe unit only. While an enemy unit is within 3" of this unit, subtract 1 from the Objective Control characteristic of its models, to a minimum of 1.
Anhrathe Character unit only. One Character model gains Lord of Deceit: once per turn, an enemy stratagem targeting a unit within 12" costs 1CP more.
The Anhrathe objective-holder that triggers Void Thieves, and the natural Voidstone bearer.

How to play Corsair Coterie in 11th edition — the 2-DP Corsair detachment that punishes enemies for approaching the objectives you already hold.
Sprue Sentry strategy commentary for 11th edition, not official rules. Games Workshop updates points and rules regularly; always confirm against the current official rules and latest update before a game.
Corsair Coterie is the Aeldari Corsair objective-raiding detachment: a 2-Detachment-Point package that grabs objectives, makes them sticky, and punishes anyone who tries to take them back. It reflects Warhammer 40,000 11th edition (Aeldari Faction Pack version 1.3, legal for matched play from 26 August 2026), and its rule, stratagems and enhancements are printed in full in that pack.
This is SprueSentry strategy commentary, not official rules. Corsair Enhancement points live in the Warhammer 40,000 app, so confirm those before a game.
While you control an objective, each time an enemy unit ends a move within range of it, roll a D6 — on a 2+ that enemy takes D3 mortal wounds. On top of that, Void Thieves makes objectives held by your Anhrathe units sticky (they stay yours until the opponent out-controls them), and Veterans of the Void lets each Anhrathe unit take a unique Corsair Enhancement. It's a defensive board-control engine: seize the midfield, then bleed anyone who disputes it.
Each goes on a different Anhrathe unit:
Take it for an objective-raiding, board-control army that punishes the enemy for approaching the objectives you already hold. It's strong into armies that must physically move onto your objectives (they eat D3 mortal wounds on a 2+), and great when you want Anhrathe units to make objectives sticky and then fade away. It rewards an Anhrathe/Corsair-heavy roster, since most bonuses key off the Anhrathe keyword. At 2 DP it leaves 1 DP for a support like Path of the Outcast.
Sample gameplan: grab midfield objectives early with Voidscarred (put Voidstone on a key holder for a 5++). Once you control them, Void Thieves keeps them yours even after your holders die, and Relentless Raiders chips D3 mortal wounds off every enemy that moves in. Use Yriel to hold units in Reserves and drop Voidreavers into the backfield; after they kill something, Into the Breach repositions them. On defence, layer Cloak and Shadow and Vengeful Sorrow to keep raiders alive, and Lethal Ruse to disengage and re-charge with a burst of mortal wounds.
2 DP, leaving 1 DP at a 2,000-point game for a support detachment. It's one of two Corsair detachments in the Faction Pack, alongside the more aggressive Eldritch Raiders.
Relentless Raiders: while you control an objective, an enemy that ends a move within range of it takes D3 mortal wounds on a 2+; your Anhrathe make objectives sticky (Void Thieves); and each Anhrathe unit can take a Corsair Enhancement.
Both are 2-DP Corsair detachments. Eldritch Raiders is the aggressive advance-and-charge raider (led by Prince Yriel's Yriel's Own rule); Corsair Coterie is the defensive objective-holder that punishes enemies for approaching the ground you already control. Pick by whether you want to attack or to hold.
Corsair Voidscarred as objective-holders (with Voidstone for a 5++), Voidreavers for raiding, Rangers and Shroud Runners as the Outcast Ambush snipers and objective-sitters, and Prince Yriel to lead and redeploy the raid.
