I'm looking at making a Forgeworld purchase for myself, and I am looking to finish off my flying aspect of my army with one more flyer (as I already own two heldrakes.)

Which of the flyers from FW would be best as an addition? I'm ruling out the massively expensive ones, simply because wallet. So my options are the Hell Talon, Hell Blade, Xiphon Patternn, Fire Raptor and Storm Eagle. Also, i'll be playing primarily a World Eaters army, if that helps at all.

Hell Talon is great but it has a bigger footprint than a bane blade, it’s a huge model so bear that in mind. Hell Blade or Xiphon are both great and easy kits.

Would you think it'd be better to take the smaller one simply because it doesn't profile, but can still do a similar role?

Rules wise, xiphon

Just the best bang for my buck as far as guns go?

Yep

I'd say Xiphon too.

Not just rule-wise. it looks awesome.

The turky is nice, as long as you remember its not a shooter but an assault unit.
