Olgerth Istaarn Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 The thought of spending 900+ points on fully kitted trio of those is only mildly less terrifying than the thought of spending the money necessary to buy them. But then again, they could unleash quite a bit of hell, and carry a lot of troops to battle. Is the Stormchicken 2.0 for you?

Loken86 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I was thinking of getting one for my 13th company but i'm not sure if its worth the price Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3038798 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akela Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I was and continue to be very excited about its potential. Points wise and actual cost, it's very expensive. At the very least, it's Fast Attack rather than Heavy, so if you did sink lots of points into it being a gunship, it could be a fire magnet allowing the Long Fangs, Thunder Cav, and Fen Wolves/Swiftclaws to survive. Comboed with a mix of Grey Hunters in Rhinos/Razorbacks and Drop Pods, it would be advantageous to have opponents try and bring the gunship down rather than the real threats.

Kassill Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Yes, I want one. Possibly two. Will wait though, as the first batch seems to have had some casting problems (most usually do it seems) and have to build up the funds for it/them.

ORKILL Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I will definitely be using one. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3039150 Share on other sites More sharing options...
king tiger 101 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Too many people worry about it being "worth it", it looks awesome, seriously what more do you people need in a game of TOYS?, if I had £200, I would have 2 filled with blood claws Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3039179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Dammit Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Id love to just own one and use it in fun games, i dont feel he is competitive though.

Emperors Immortals Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 As a BA i think the StormTurkeytm will open up a whole new list of builds - BC is one obvious one, but what about a GH blob or even Skyclaw pack? Personally a ST with skyclaw passangers would be scary as hell, and a tasty snack for my DC ;p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3039209 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking a large pack of TDA Wolf Guard with and IC of some sorts myself. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3039324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emptyedens Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 15 Bloodclaws with a Wolf Priest and Wolf Guard in TDA w/assault cannon for the win!! I could plan an army around this. Bunch of swift claw bikers. Unit of TWC with a Wolf Lord. Rapid attack balls to the wall awesomeness. Who cares if it is competitive with that amount of awesome!

MeatGrinder Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I think the model is horrendous. I won't be going near it with a ten foot pole. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3039431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Brother 92 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 personally I love the model - a proper mountain of steel and firepower - to me that's exactly what space marines are meant to be, big, wall-o-muscle and ten tons of firepower, if we wanted pretty we'd roll with sisters or eldar - now everyone has their choices and opinions and I do think that £80 is a tad steep even for FW - then again I'm not put off from getting a reaver titan at £200+ a pop Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250705-now-that-stormeagle-is-here/#findComment-3039988 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with 2 storm raven on its wings it will be a good thing in apoc games.
