Its not affected by melta, but its really affected by everything else...its not quite the same at AV11 as melta-immunity is at AV12. I do like the speed though, hit on 6's in combat and can still fire everything is nice.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404379.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404379.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship
It is AV11 so you do not want it in the middle of a firefight. But it has an assault cannon with a 24" range. All of the other available weapons (with the exception of heavy bolters) have a 48"+ range.

As others have already stated, if I could take a multi-melta to go along with the assault cannon, I think I would like it better. If the assault cannon and heavy bolters could be replaced for a combination of TML, Skyhammer, or TL LC giving all of the weapons the same range, I would like it.

As it stands, I have a vehicle that is confused about its role as to whether it should be in your face tank hunting or raining down support fire from afar.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404398.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404398.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404517.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404517.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404593.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4404593.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship

Right now someone at GW is saying: "Ha! See!?

Its clearly been written with 6th in mind so we need to wait to see what it can do within the context of the new rules.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405370.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405370.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405412.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405412.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship

If so, only a few armies can have flyers like SM, BA, GK, DE, Orks, and Necrons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405672.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405672.page GMT Stormtalon Gunship OP, I wrote a pretty extensive comparison of the stormtalon to other C:SM FA choices here http://www.3forint.com/2012/05/stormtalon-why-do-you-want-it.html

Basically, if you are playing a standard SM list, it doesn't really fit in, but if you are playing a faster list to take advantage of it's abilities then it could be awesome]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405715.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455270/4405715.page GMT
