Swath of Flyers



Three ork flyers were mentioned. Its not sure whether they are all part of a single kit or two, one for the dakkajet and another for the bommers.

Ork Biltza-Bommer
Just a picture


Dakkajet (no sketch)

BS2 AV10
Fast Skimmer
Supersonic
Aerial Assault

Twin linked Dakka Guns
Strafing Run- BS 3 against anything but jump infantry and skimmers.
Waagh Ability: During the round of a Waagh, all guns may fire twice.

Upgrade Fighter Ace which gives the Dakkajet BS3 against everything


Burna-Bommer 

BS2 AV10
Fast Skimmer
Supersonic
Aerial Assault


Burna Bomb S5 AP4 ignores cover, large blast (dropped during the movement phase) single shot
Scorcha Missle 24" S5 AP4 ignores cover, blast
Grot Gunner- BS3 weapon looks like a dakka


Waagh ability: During the round of a Waagh, all guns may fire twice.
Space Marine Stormtalon Gunship
130pts + upgrades

BS4 AV11
Fast Skimmer
Supersonic
Aerial Assault
Ceramite Plating
Deep Strike
 No transporting ability

Comes with Twin linked Assault Cannons and a Twin linked Heavy Bolter than can be upgraded to the following
Twin linked Lascannon
Typhoon Missle Launcher
Sky Hammer Missle Launcher 60" S7 AP4 Heavy 3

Escort Craft
Can be attached to a unit of deep strikers, and will appear within 6" of the deepstriking unit

Hover Strike
Can convert to a skimmer but not move in order to recieve a +1 to BS

Notes: The model was painted blue with ultramarine symbols, so we know at least vanilla marines will get this vehicle. Others are unknown. I would imagine codices without a storm raven for sure would get it. Model wise, it was shorter than a storm raven and appears much narrower.



Speculation: July 7th for rulebook; September for boxed set; no DAs til next year.

June 2nd, "Swath of Flyers". Expecting to be a WD update.

Ork Flyer: 1 or 2 kits, 3 actual variants in total.
"Dakka-Jet" BS2 Av10/10/10, Fast Skimmer, Aerial Assault, Supersonic, Strafing Run (BS3 vs anything against Jump Infantry and Skimmers), Waaaaaghplane (can fire twice during a Waaaagh). Possible twin-linked Dakka guns. Possible "fighter ace" upgrade, gives BS3 against everything.
Lots of complaining about Av10 all round. blah blah blah wishlisting and speculation.
"Blitza-bomba" Sketch looks like an Ork WW2 fighter plane.
"Burna-bomber" BS2 Av10/10/10. Aerial Assault, Supersonic. "burna-bomb" S5 AP4 ignores cover, large blast, dropped in the movement phase. "Scorcha-missile" 24" S5 AP4 ignores cover, blast. Grot-gunner (BS3 weapon), don't know what weapon the grot will be gunning. Also has Waaaaaaghplane as above.

Space Marine Flyer: Stormtalon Gunship
Looks like a Storm Raven with no wings (more sketches based off the actual model shown), with big thrusters on the side and what looks like a minigun (assault cannon) underneath.
130 points. BS4 Av11/11/11, Fast Skimmer. Supersonic, Aerial Assault. Twin-linked assault cannon and twin-linked heavy bolters as standard. Swap HB with TLLC or Typhoon missile launchers. "Skyhammer missile launchers" (upgrade?) 60" S4 SP3. Ceramite Plating (ignore extra D6 on melta). "Escort Craft" special rule, can attach vehicle to Deep Striking (might be any unit arriving from reserves) unit, will turn up with DS unit and arrive 6" away from the unit it is attached to. Has no flamers/meltas/multi-melta upgrades. "Hover Strike" special rule, can choose not to move for the turn and get +1 BS instead. NO transport capacity.
Guaranteed use by Vanilla marines (model they've seen was painting in Ultra colours).
