Reaper Bolt Thrower

Reaper Bolt Thrower is a Dark Elves artillery unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II. Their bolts strike with such force that, should their targets survive, they are unfit to live even as slaves.

Description
Reaper Bolt Throwers are used at sea to clear the decks of enemy vessels, and on land to scythe down ranks of enemy warriors. A mechanism of counterweights and cords allow the Reaper to shoot a hail of bolts, or a single missile with force enough to pierce a Dragon's hide. The bolts are barbed and difficult to remove from the wounds they inflict. Those injured - but not slain - by such a shot often suffer such horrendous maiming on the bolt's removal that they are worthless as slaves, and are therefore left to bleed to death or given over to the bloody caresses of the Witch Elves.

Strategy
The dark elf equivalent of the high elf Eagle Claw Bolt Thrower, functioning exactly the same way. Like its counterpart, it serves as the sole artillery unit option for their race.
