I'm not impressed, especially by the use of a 1st ed gunner!

But anyway I guess inf, 10cm move, no save, no cc, ff6+, twin autocannon 45cm AP4+/AT5+/AA6+?

I like them, and I've got a boat load of those gunners that could be put to good use.  They'd also make great conversion fodder for Ork vehicles.

Oh I like the model - I just think its lazy by FW. Whoops yes immobile, I was sleepy when doing it.

If you wanted AA5+ I would cut the range to 30cm (as they aren't Hydra weapons).

Yeah, agreed, laziness on the part of FW using the 1st Ed gunner, but I think these'll be a neat terrain feature e.g. on top of fortifications, part of an air field...  That's how I'll be using them anyway! :) :cool:

Possibly immobile. Counts as 'Hydra platform' in the Krieg list?

I know these are for IA rather than Epic, but why not make something useful for a change :D.

I would have these as distinct from Hydra platforms, they're very definitely lighter systems.

Oh and the Death Korps don't use Sabres.



Cadians do though.... *HINT* :D

Just got my NL !!  24hr+ after you Euros !  But any way I like the Sabre and the early IG gunner, got lots on my weapons !  AND did you Boyz notice the Teaser pic of an Ork Soopa 'eavy Bomma ?!  If you guys got you panties in a bunch over the Harbinger, I think, (IMO) these 'Uge aircraft are going to make an appearance more & more. All forces will have their version of a B-52 ! Why you ask !?  Big models cost more for us to buy, and it keeps bringing in new models to the game ...  :)

Actually what I would like to see is an Imperial Heavy Transport - the Imperial equivalent of the USAF C-5 or C-17 (only bigger and can carry a lot more).  I dubbed it the Hast (Heavy AeroSpace Transport).

I wouldn't doubt, that may happen ... (I posted pics of my Super Heavy DROPSHIP from GZG before !)    But I imagine along with the Imperial Cntl Tower and landing pad, we saw at G-Day, in the future we'll see Ork, ELDAR, etc. airfield structures, equipment, etc. ...  But save up your "Teff", as like the Harbinger costing ?35 BPS/$70 USD - you can bet these Heavy Aircraft are gon'na cost ya !!! :O

Your words are pregnant with significance.
