It seems Vendettas beat Vultures now, they have better AT I think and need permission to be used.

Somebody mathhammer it and prove me wrong about this.

Let the debate begin!

The Vendetta is not opponent permission.

Vendettas are Win. Allowing FW rules is Fail. Done.

Vendettas have much better anti tank:

Vendetta 3x TL LC = 25% chance of destroying or immobilising AV14
vs
Vulture 1x TL LC + 6xHK missiles + HB = 17% chance and it's just fired all of it's HKs.

The Vulture's advantages are surivivability (only hit on 6's unless the weapon is on an AA mount and subtract 12" from range) and the versatility of it's weapons. 4x missile pods or 2x punisher cannons is good anti-infantry. TL AC + 6x HK missiles is good anti-transport.

Also, Vultures are heavy support so they aren't competing with Vends and Valks for slots. So, get both!

And neither are Vultures.

they're forgeworld. most people have zero familiarity with their rules so decline to play against them. whether or not the rules actually state it, they are in practice "with opponent's permission". i may not necessarily agree with that but i do always ask my opponent if i can use the shaso rymr rules for my tau commander.
