Hesh Kadesh Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Well, being able to give Twin-Link and Rending to a Combi-Plasma/Flamer seems like a good enough reason to me. Especially when you have 10 of them. The Darkwing has Outflank and Stealth so it can come on where you need to while having a 3+ jink save. Keep it away from Sicarians, obviously. And while Terminators and Vet Tacs can take them as Dedicated Transports too, Mor Deythan are better than Vet Tacticals (imo) and you can only get 8 Terminators into the Darkwing at most; not considering any characters you attack to the unit. And while Blind isn't as good as it used to be, having missiles that cause concussive can be a great boon when the Embarked unit face CC beast units like Templar Brethren, Palatine Blade, Phoenix Guard, pretty much anything World Eaters, Raven Guard Dark Furies, etc. and don't wipe them out entirely. Also, it lets you take MORE Storm Eagles in your Elites slot (dedicated Transports), Fast Attack (standard Storm Eagles) and the one Fire Raptor in Heavy Support when using the RoW. Granted, assembling that many storm eagles is akin to self-inflicted torture due to how notoriously hard they can be to put together. Note that concussive only effects enemies who suffer an unsaved wound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
