I thought about dropping the Dreads for knights, but the Excess Plasma is nice against Greentide and IG foot sloggers. Oh yeah, and the ever so random Tyranid players I face. Any suggestions? Keep in mind, the Termie squads can always get Free LC's if Wound allocation shenanigans is needed a little bit more.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193359.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193359.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193390.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193390.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193484.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193484.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake.

I wouldn't worry about most casual air. You have the staying power with DW to just focus the objectives and try to psition in a way that forces fewer shots out of the scarier flyers. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193716.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193716.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake.
The air superiority one can barely go toe to toe with other flyers with anything other than the lascannon. The missles are only strength 6, so by averages, if you even hit with all of them against the better flyers, only a single one will glance. Heavy bolter can't hurt them. Avenger can glance. Or you go to ground attacking with both bolters, shoot 9 times, hurt hordes, but have missles that can kill 6 models, or light tanks. Maybe.
Then, it's described as the air superiority one, it has strafing run to light up ground targets. It's schizophrenic.

The ground attack one is useless. The hurricane bolters can light up ground targets, kind of. And if you're in range to rapid fire, a melta can try to get within 6 to get lucky and nuke it, the rift cannon is okay, at best, and i'm being nice to it. And then hover strike is a way to get the plane blasted out of the air as it becomes a skimmer and loses the snap shots that keep it durable.

Don't take either. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193763.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193763.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake.
Out of all the flyers, the Heldrake seems to be the scariest. The baleflamer is harsh.

Stormraven's are imo the best flyer. Power of the machine spirit, AV12 all around and it's a transport vehicle.

Flyers don't seem too scary in 6th edition. They are not game changers, or autotakes. If your opponent brought only one flyer, you could either ignore it and be pretty okay, and if you have no other better targets, you can try and shoot it out of the sky.

/agree Flyers are not so bad in the 6th but the Necron Doomscythe and Helldrake are exceptions.

Stormravens are also the most expensive vehicles by far...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193837.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193837.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193898.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193898.page GMT Seasoned DA player, 6th Edition Remake. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193927.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501630/5193927.page GMT
