     Guardians

Every Eldar is trained and ready to fight if need be and the Guardians are the Craftworld's most numerous body of fighting troops.  Every Craftworld has a distinctive style of clothing typified by the use of certain colors and patterns.  These are not a fixed uniform as such and vary considerably from squad to squad and even between individuals within squads.   For example, the Guardians of Ulthwe are known as the Black Guardians after the predominant color of their uniforms.  Black is the Eldar color of mourning and the Craftworld of Ulthwe has much to mourn, for it lies close to the Eye of Terror and has suffered the attacks of Chaos warbands many times in its long history.  Other Craftworlds use equally distinctive colors or combinations of colors.  Alaitoc favors blue or a striking mixture of blue and yellow, for example, while Saim-Hann has red or fiery orange uniforms and Biel-Tan uses white, grey or pale green.
