It's Repeater Bolt Thrower, not reaper. At least in the real Warhammer game. Really small mistake, but I have to point it out, because I'm painting one right now.

My guess, given the previous coverage of siege weaponry on this site, is that they changed the name because the MMO incarnation is not, in fact, a repeating weapon. One shot, then it reloads. Too bad, since that takes a nifty bit of Dark Elf flavor away. :(

While it is the dark elf version of the high elve's 'repeater' bolt thrower, in the codices it is called a 'Reaper' bolt thrower (which I believe started in the Man O'War game). The blister pack may say repeater on it as it is simply the dark elf variant but the army books state clearly that it is a 'reaper'. Also, WAR is only based on the existing games, so there will be some differences and hence not mistakes.
