Like the title says, here's my errata to make Mr.Thorpe's unofficial codex playable in 5th ed. Here's the pdf for the actual list.

Harlequin Jetbike Squad, change price to 30 Points, change prices in unit entry to the appropriate price listed in the modified armory.

Heavy Support:
Venom: See Codex: Dark Eldar. May replace Splinter Cannon and Splinter Rifle for a Shuriken Cannon and Shuriken Catapult for 10 points . Can also be taken as a dedicated Transport for Harlequin Tropes, Great Harlequins, the Solitaire, and Great Shadowseers.

Harlequin Wraith Lord: See Codex: Eldar, has a 5+ invulnerable save.

The Venom needs to be made into a Dedicated Transport, not just a Heavy Support Option.

Also, a lot of the stuff you "Just ignore" is the stuff I really liked about the experimental codex. The Permanent 4+ cover save, 4" squad Cohesion, etc.

Note that the Powerblades are the reason why a lot of the cc weapons don't ignore armor. The Powerblades are not a cc weapon, but make the user ignore armor saves in cc. Hence, you can get a Harlequins Kiss and ignore armor with it. Then give it to a Solataire and now you got killing fun.

I got rid of the more characterful versions of the holosuit and such to blend in with the new Harlequin rules. Thanks for the comments.

I would add ability to take Vypers/Bladewings () squadrons.

Yes... Fast Bright/Dark Lances or Shuriken/Splinter Cannons would be nice addition.

I say! The Solitaire seems awesome. I have an old solitaire, I wonder if anyone would let me use it with those rules...

I'm really quite excited to see what Forge World comes out with fig-wise to match the new Solitaire entry that will be in IA11.

1) Why ignore the DJ Elite entry? That's a huge loss of precious firepower. I would keep that in addition to allowing 1 DJ per 5 members of a troupe.

2) Agree with Rangrok1k, the Venom should be a Dedicated Transport option instead of HS, for any Troupe, HQ or Elite selection.
Also, "May replace Splinter Cannon and Splinter Rifle for a Shuriken Cannon and Shuriken Catapult or a Shrieker Cannon and Shuriken Catapult for no additional cost. May replace Splinter Rifle/Shuriken Catapult for second Splinter, Shuriken or Shrieker Cannon for 10 pts."

Shuriken Cannons have a STR value, meaning they can threaten vehicles as well.

They should cost more.

All right, adjusted prices on the Shuriken Catapults/Cannons and the Venom can now be taken as a dedicated Transport.

Google for Codex Harlequins and you will see there are others doing the same at both DakkaDakka and Warseer.
You might steal some balancing ideas from there...

I have some bits around ear marked to build a Solitare, (a Troupe Master with wych legs ) so I am too awaiting the new rules.

PS I got a troupe master with no legs, told GW and got a whole new blister! With some converted wych legs from a bits supplier and a new head, he'll be all ready to go.
