Rare Slot Query
Having Browsed several army lists Ive noticed people taking bolt throwers and eagles as 2 for 1 choices still i.e. 2 great eagles and 2 bolthrowers in 2250. I cannot find where this is allowed in the army book could someone please point that rule out in the army book via page number ?

It has nothing to do with two for one, which was eliminated in 7th edition. Instead, you are overlooking or weren't aware that High Elves have a different force organization system than every other army in WHFB. At 2000-2999 points a High Elf army only requires two core, and may have up to six special and four rare units.
I was actually hoping that if this was implemented that it would become an elven standard. Instead it's just another oddball (and imo lazy design) feature of High Elves. Like ASF.

Our monster choices have two requirements: character and additional character slot, with the exception of the gryphon, which has always been rather controversial topic as to whether it's worthwhile to mount him or not.
The way our army is conceptualized, we won't be getting any independent monsters on our list.
