Hm, okay. It's currently 180 without missiles. So instead of decreasing the price, they just upped its durability. I suppose that's acceptable.
It is looking like it'll make a pretty good dogfighter - 4 twin-linked S7 shots and 1 twin-linked S9 might actually compete with the Vendetta in terms of flyer-killing power, even though that still just highlights how ridiculously cheap the vendetta is currently
Any word on the Eldar flyers? What's your source for these rumours btw?
No word on the Eldar flyers I'm afraid.
My source is my local GW store manager, who claims he's read a copy bought at the studio open day
any word on what can be taken for the avengers second pait of hardpoints?
no chance to be able to add another twin lascannon? cause that would look badass
Hush you, I just got around to putting together the one I had sitting around in it's box since release and picked up a third one second-hand.
The Tyranids don't hate. They don't yearn or care or fear. They can't be reasoned with."Oh great and mightly emperor whose light protects us all, the forces of chaos are nearing the palace, tell us what must we do to repause them.
A rumble is heard in the distance and the entire palace begins to groan.
As the dust of ages slowly falls from his body and his aura which seemed bright grows radiant beyond imagining, He begins to speak with a voice of thunder, " FORM FEET AND LEGS"
Did anyone had a look at the Blight Drones of Nurgle rules? Do they differ from the ones in the Imperial Armor: Second Edition? Well apart from it being a flyer and having 3HP.
I got my copy today. Only had a quick glance and it looks like one or two things have changed but most of it is the same as the Pdf released a few weeks ago.
There are a few new USRs at the front of the book that weren't mentioned in the pdf. The Nightwing has one of these, Agile, that gives it a further +1 to its jink save, which if stacked with shrouded (I don't have the rule book with me so I'm not sure) would give a 2+ jink save.
Blight drones are indeed flyers.
All the rumoured stats for the avenger seem correct.
If anyone has any specific questions that I can answer legally post them here.
what factions can use the avenger? is it only Imps? and a hint on the point cost would be most appreciated :-D
Does chaos can take a storm eagle? And it's the same as the experimental rules or did it change? Thanks
It is a HS choice for IG and Sisters. In its pants it costs a little more than a Vendetta with HBs. You can add enough additional toys to make it cost about the same as a LR.
Yes Chaos can take it, although with the usual modifications. I don't have the experimental rules to hand but from memory it looks very similar. I don't remember if it was an assault vehicle before but it is now.
Whats the difference between FW's Ork planes and GWs?
Is the Tau barracuda costing as before and have the same armor value than the one in the vehicule update pdf from FW?
I second the request for information on Ork flyers.
I don't have the book, but my source says the Ork Atakk Fighta is armed with 3 twin-linked big shootas; we already know it has 2 HP
It has two twin-linked big stootas, two bombs, which can be replaced with rokkits. Stats are as in the pdf, and it can be taken in units of 1-3.
The Fighta Bomber has five twin linked big shootas and six rockets.
Neither have the Waaaaaagh rule.
I'll compare them against the codex versions when I get home tonight.

The Thunderhawk does not have any HP, it uses Structure Points as always.
