Do you have a copy of points or upgrades or does the WD even have that?

The WD has all the relevant information for the Ork Flyers, as well as the Stormtalon.

I playtested it yesterday borrowing my buddies stormraven. with a redpaintjob it moves 13 and fires everything, which with extra supa shoota is 9 shots at a grots BS. and on a WAAGH turn its double!. the things pretty sweet.

as for the other two im still not impressed. all the bombs are one shot only (you carry two) and you pay extra for the scorcha missiles, so they get even more pricey than im comfortable with. and their armor is too light to pay for more than what the dakkajet is with upgrades IMO.

I'd try one, and see how it does. If you like it, add another to the list, and see if 2 works bettter for you than one, for the points, compared to other choices..

I ran this as my third in slot with two squads of deffcoptas outflanking. They really worked well in tandem as the plane zoomed 36" first turn and got stunned by enemy shooting, but the deffkoptas luckily outflanked from that side and pushed on the vehicles causing my opponent to change focus to something that was a bigger threat to his vehicles. once tanks opened up it helped my assualting boys by putting a lot of dakka into a squad before it was assaulted.

I only played on game so i cant quantify as anykind of expert, but I think 2 max, but they work really well with koptas, as they compete for your opponents ranged affection so to speak. and as they are primarily anti infantry, they will want your koptas first.

the 2k list i ran was like this

2x war boss (AOBR)

15 lootas

15 burnas

2x 5 nobs trukk (rpj, boarding plank)

2x 19 boyz, Nob PK BP

2x 3 deffkoptas tl RR, 1 buzzsaw

1 dakkajet, RPJ, extra supashoota

3 battlewagons 1 deffrolla

kinda a wierd list, but i run my deffkoptas in 3's with one buzzsaw because it only seems to work that way for me. (less and they die too fast, more and they are just a point sink or run off the board from wounds)

naturally the burnas in one wagon the boyz in the other two with nobs+bosses in trukks.

I used the lootas and plane to steer the action into my boyz and nobs (who crack tanks with the pk) and it worked pretty well. my right side stayed clear allowing deffcoptas to outflank a more or less distracted opponent already.

game wise my opponent made a lot of mistakes, but i was still pleased enough with the output of the jet and its potential to warrent putting one on preorder after the match where i was pretty dead set before on never fielding one.

I'd try one, and see how it does. If you like it, add another to the list, and see if 2 works bettter for you than one, for the points, compared to other choices..

Heh, I'm going all out and get three right away, I guess no magic cards or pc games this month. "I crash a plane into your landraider" is all the reason I need

Often

I put together a deliberatley random as hell ork list for my local tournament, but haven't had a chance to run it yet.

SAG Mek
Zogwort

(troops...not very random)

Lootas
Tankbustas

Stormboyz
Blitza Bommer

Looted wagon
Flash Gitz
ZZApp gun battery

It's not in the least bit competitive, but it should be hilarious to try out.

Not that effective, barring some really good dice rolling, but very very orky

I plan on building one of each plane, to begin with

Jidmah wrote:I'm pretty sure it will at least be Valkyrie/Vendetta sized, you can tell from the pictures with a flying stand.

Pricing somewhat depends on the number of sprues, the ork bommer is three sprues, the storm raven is four.

Jidmah wrote:The Valk is about as long and wide as the storm raven, but flatter. The ork bommer is almost definitely not as complex a model as the storm raven is, besides that, size isn't everything

Magnetizing really isn't as hard as it sounds. The only thing you need to know, that magnets have to be quite strong to keep something tight in place. On vehicles you usually don't even need to drill holes, just super-glue them to the right places and you are set. Oh, and make sure the magnets are glued on the right side
