I had a similar thing happen to me...in the open they didnt do much and got massacred by long range fire. ?Next game I got them into some ruins...talk about a prime unit for cleaning urban areas of unwanted enemy infantry!
I'm sure they are in the back there in the "OOP Models" list with the stats....

Hi!
I remember that battle report the Eldar were crushed!
I still have my legions of stormhammers, they are excellent for city battles and in close terrain. My favorite was the stormblade, which also got dropped, I loved those helion missiles, its the only tank that can take on a titan and have a chance to down the shields then destory it.

Well you can still get the Stormhammer & Stormblade from G/W US MO. And regardless of the G/W E-A party line, we Do Not let their rules, dictate what models are used on the board !  That being said, Jervis did a pretty good job, of making charts for old models for the IG, SM and Orks in E-A.  But much work needs to be done ...

Hi!
Amen to that Legion4. I picked up a bunch of those FW models and they act according to the rules I use.

Hi!
That's an interesting point. There was an indea for netepic of giving equipment packs to tailor vehicles, the helion rack would make a good "optional" weapon system.

You can do what you want on your gaming board as long as you and your gaming crew all agree. We made a simple decision for all vehicles, all Baneblades and Stormhammers are the same. Shadowswords, Stormblades, Stormswords are all the same. Leman Russes are all the same. Demolishers, Conquerors, Executioners are the same. All Chimeras and Gorgans 2s & 3s are all the same. We have played every version of vehicle being different, and it was fun, however is started to bog down. We've been collecting since SM1 in '90 and with each Epic release and now F/W, it just becomes too much of a moras with too many vehicle types for each army on the board. We do the same for all armys. An Ork Battlewagon is an Ork Battlewagon. A Predator is a Predator. Etc., etc., etc. ... But bottom line ... do what works for you ... not what works for me ...

..Regarding the Stormblade, there is an interesting little snippet of fluff in the new Imperial Armour book that says something along the lines of;
"some older Stormblades carried racks of Hellion missiles, but they have now been phased out due to a number of catastrophic losses caused by enemy fire damaging the missiles and detonating them..."
..interesting....

That was going to be my other reason

Hi!
Well, I'm all for justifying it with fluff, it makes for a believable background.
