If you had 300 points to spend on fast attack, what would you pick????

two stormtalons or four landspeeders?

Or if there is another unit you would choose state it below

2 x Baal Predators

Or maybe even a big VV squad.....

If it was for any army, I'd pick, (various armies)
DE: a lot of Scourges
IG: 3 Valkyries, or 9 Sentinels


If it was BA, then I dunno. Probably two Landspeeders and a Baal Predator.

Except BA cant take talons... if smurfs then 2 talons, if BA then 2 Baals w/ HB

Since you are talking about Stormtalons, I'm assuming you are playing codex marines, since BA's don't get stormtalons (they get stormravens, which are much better). And I would go with 4 Land Speeders. Because they only have 2 HP and AV11, Stormtalons are extremely squishy, and the combination of their cost and vulnerablity make them the 'worst' flier currently available. They also do Anti-Flier duty worse than other options available, so unless you are desperate for anti-flyer, I would take the Landspeeders. They are much cheaper, harder to kill due to the fact that they are spread out across 4 vehicles, and can do their assigned task rather efficiently (double MM for Anti-Armour, double HF for anti-horde, HB/Typhoon for fire support),
