Biggysmalls Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Looking at fielding the Ravenwing strike force detachment with a nephilim but the issue I have is with the wording of the listing. It says that all units should be placed in reserve or deployed as "normal". But "normal" deployment for a flyer is in reserve so how do you all interpret this?

But "normal" deployment for a flyer is in reserve so how do you all interpret this? he starts already on the table in your deployment zone, essentially you get the benefit of a skyshield without buying a skyshield he would start in your deployment zone and immedeately have to move because he zooms Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313707-ravenwing-strike-force-and-flyers/#findComment-4172324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeChisler Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 We've taken "Deployed as Normal" to mean just that the flyer goes into reserve and must be rolled for if the Strike force starts on the table. If your running RWSF there's not much option would be useful for GW to FAQ the formation but I wouldn't hold your breath even given the cock up with the HQ Ravenwing.

Biggysmalls Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 It was a bit of a debate today as whether it can be used in the formation as its either all reserve or nothing. We decided on just the flyer in ongoing reserve.

Hidicul Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 My group decided that an hq on bike counts, so I field my fliers in a separate RWSF so as to avoid this problem.

Crazy Jay Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Only time I've fielded our flyers in this edition was as the silence squadron.
