Had a game of IG verses an (obviously traitor) Titan Legion army.  I ran Deathstrikes in the first time I can remember largely because of DA's questions.  By the third turn my Warp had hit a Warlord, sent its' reactor critical and it exploded in the end phase.  Neither Barrage missile had been set off yet, though one would have gone boom in the 4th had we  needed it.  While this was an almost perfect opponent to get maximum out of them, I am of the opinion that these are probably too good now the random movement has been taken away and they are so much harder to kill.  If you work on 1 Warp/2 Barrage the equivalent Titan missiles would cost 350.  Now these are instantaneous and unstoppable, but you do have to pay for the titan chassis to carry them.  I think it would be reasonable to make Deathstrikes 350 and/or treating the missiles themselves exactly as aircraft for targetting (either version of the rules).

Hi!

Sounds reasonable to me.
