hmmm.... that Stormbird is absolutely NOTHING like I was expecting.

 

For one, I thought it would be an awful lot bigger (even though that is pretty sizeable) and, I don't know....can't put my finger on it

From what I remember, you're not the only one who has thought this. Bear in mind that this is the "newest" pattern at the time of the Heresy and the one which the Thunderhawk is based on.

 

If I recall correctly, the older patterns were supposedly larger and very much different.

Wait.

 

Any Model with a Heavy Flamer.

 

Meaning you can have Sniper Tac Vets with Assault Cannons.

Isn't sniper and rending a bit redundant?

Yeah, kinda.

 

Helps vs MC's with the flat 4+ to wound though.

True, can't vets take tank hunter? ACs with tank hunter are mean.

Squeeeee!

 

Assault cannons on Jetbikes! Tank sponsons! Attack Bikes! Baal Predators! Even pintle upgrades!!!

Dreadnoughts with underslung Assault Cannons!, etc!

 

Just going to go ahead and say that since Jetbikes cant take Heavy Flamers unless Salamanders, that isn't going to be a thing.
