Grav doesn't bother me nearly as much, granted almost all my army has bad armor so

Grav needs to be a bit more expensive to though don't get me wrong.

Grav guns are crap compared to scatterlasers.

The only other Flyer that I see is the Necron Night Scythe. I'm not sure the Scatter Bikes do any better against that, either...

In my store, there's one Necron flier, one or two SM fliers, and then there's the rest of us

Seriously, there are probably 10-15 Crimson Hunters/Hemlocks in some combination at my store. I only own one Hemlock (but will be getting 1+ Hunter at some point, because they do quite well alongside a Harlequin army)

Yeah, they are fragile, but if fliers are in the meta, they pack a bit of a punch. So, if you take them, and can take out your targets before they get shot down, they are worth the expense. Otherwise, the other advice here of just snap-shooting other things at fliers is a better bet.

Flyers pack a bit of a punch, unless your Orks. In which case your flyers all suck, are all over priced, and have no armor.
