Fire Eagle - Converting the Storm Eagle and Fire Raptor

[Karack Blackstone]

Hello; I am currently planning on getting, building and then sending in pictures to Forgeworld for a new flyer kit, that is a kit bash combining the Fire Raptor and Storm Eagle.

 

The finished kit has the following weapons:

 

- TL Avenger Bolt Cannons

- Two Quad Heavy Bolter Turrets

- Two Wing Mounted TLLC

- Four Wing Mounted Missiles (Unsure on type)

- One Vengeance Launcher

 

ADD:

 

- Armoured Ceramite

- Extra Armour (Or Armoured Cockpit as needed)

 

Base flier is a Fire Raptor - No transport capacity, and plenty of guns, per the above list, that's for sure!

 

BS 4, AV 12 all around, 4 HP; Armoured Ceramite, Extra Armour, and Independent firing turrets, per normal FR.

 

For 325 points, I hope this is a reasonable flier; it should likely look cool, the only issue I am having is, how and where do I mount the missiles on the wings? I am thinking of getting the Hellstrike Missile kit of four from FW, and hoping there are mounts included in said kit. If so, this is easier and the missiles will likely go under and alongside the TLLC mounts, extending both beside and below the outer edges of the mounts.

 

Any thoughts, feedback, and what not on this, the Fire Eagle?

 

Edit: This kit bash is not official yet; I hope with this build to see if FW is willing to make the single kit for this flyer.
