Tho... not very good.

Interesting. They expect us to pay the price of a Voidraven for a unit that is essentially a worse Razorwing.

Nice try, Forgeworld.

That is amazingly underwhelming. I'll stick to my Codex birds.

Looks like my ugly ass ship will be staying on the shelf. Those rules are awful.

I guess thats what I get for complaining that they dont have rules.

Or... play it as a RWJF or Bomber

hey guys i dont get why youre upset? i mean, it can move 72".
thats useful. if you have to be on a new table, for example, as soon as you lose your first game due to fielding this thing, you can hop right onto the next one

RWJF moves 72"

So you give up the missiles for essentially a second splinter cannon. Not a great tradeoff.

I have three of them!!!

I'm old!!

NICE! I love them i have a recasted one... i might get another.

You see, young Archons, back in my day there was an Apocalypse formation known as the Raven Murder Squadron. I don't even remember what it did, but I know that you needed at least three of the damned things. So, I slowly collected enough to field the formation... and then they got rid of it... because.... Slannesh.

so braden you are like, our granparchon?

My entire army is made the old 3rd edition models...

This comment made me feel incredibly old. I remember when the first Dark Eldar models got released...

i remember the times as a young teenager 2011/12 when the new models were released and it was glorious

Don't worry guys, we can't use them in matched play so we will not fall into temptation

Wow that's a dumb model and dumb rules lol.

This coming from someone who WORSHIPS Drukhari.

72" That's the same as a RWJ.... with like, half the power haha

At least it got some rules again.

Sure, not for matched play and it is a bit expensive, but better than no rules at all

Basically it is a RWJF with 2 dark lances and a splintercannon with 3 bonus rapidfire shots for 1 more powerlevel, or did i miss something?

No missiles, but yeah i agree, at least there are rules, tho i rather just use it as a RWJF

Points cost?

None, its not met for Match play.

honestly power level and "no model, no rules- but you can use the index" are the worst things about 8th imo

I agree.

You'd think it would only take them a few inutes to come up witha random number for matched points cost at the very least.

Ah, of course. I missed the missilies . Then it really is way too expensive.

i dont get why they cut those models, a new edition for 40k would be the best time to start producing new kits or upgrade kits, not even space marines were safe
seriously, why dont they make more of these kits like the ones dark angels/ blood angels/ ultramarines have,
trueborn upgrade kit, 3 blaster, 3 shredder, a dark lance, a SC, 5 helmets and some decoration, 10 bucks,
guard regiment upgrade kit, 10 helmets/ torsos, some rifles, done
they cut out 3d party sellers and make a profit (presumably)
I remember the times when we played LotR, and half my armies had not enough models but rules and points cost, PLUS tutorials in the brb on how to convert stuff
