The sword motif...

Nah, just make the Jetbike squad a straight up elite choice, none of this :P footing around with 0-1 stuff or limited availability. If ancient tech is going to be a thing for us then let us have it. Even in the elite slot it only implies a handful of precious jetbikes per chapter. There should be enough around to equip a few elite units of Ravenwing, basically the Ravenwing Company Veterans if you will.

 

Lances would be fun little additions to Ravenwing units. But even if they don't get them specifically, I think that the recent BL fluff has finally given them a thing since that has been changing ever edition so far. Making them a mounted assault unit would be quite neat. It would also give Counts As White Scars somewhere to go other than a single special character in C:SM (a lot of the recent marine codices have secondary applications like this so it would be a nice touch here). Kind of like how the BA codex became the adoptive Ravenguard dex.

Ravenwing Riders with Power Lances and Storm Shield...

 

Can we say Hit and Run :P

That really fits Mongol White Scars/heel-nipping Space Wolves more than it does the Ravenwing though. Ravenwing are all about being Skilled Riders/Pilots, and always have been. There is a rule for that for the bikes, but it would be nice to also have one for the Land Speeders. Now, jump units and jetbikes should all have Hit and Run. I mean, come on, a unit that can just...jump/fly away...can be locked in combat with a foot soldier?! That's just laughable. :lol: This latter bit is a core rules issue though.
