Flying Infantry: These models have two modes of travel similar to the flyer subtype unit. These modes are hover mode and zooming mode, and the mode of travel they are using must be determined before they are moved that turn.
When in hover mode, flying infantry ignore terrain and models under them as they make a move up to 12". After this move they flying infantry models MAY EITHER shoot or assault and MAY NEVER do both in the same player turn.
When in zooming mode, flying infantry may only make up to one 90 degree pivot before they move and must move between 18-36". When in zooming mode flying infantry units may neither shoot, run, or assault and they gain the Hard To Hit USR.

What do you think?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7619821.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7619821.page GMT
Jet Pack infantry on the other hand, are a different story, but I think people might have a few objections to hard to hit crisis suits.

I think Jump Infantry is fine how it is. Why do you think it needs buffed?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7620359.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7620359.page GMT
Maybe instead of removing the jump infantry type just add in the flying infantry as an addition?

I don't feel like the rules I made for them make them overpowered, but Id be glad for someone to prove me wrong.

Or they can move in a straight line, unlike bikes/jetbikes which can turn as they turbo boost, and not do anything when they get there, for the added benefit of hard to hit.

It would make several of the current jump infantry units more durable, but much less effective in actually killing the enemy.

I think it would be interesting if they were treated in a similar manner to FMCs, where you have the "move like a jump model" mode and the actual flying mode. I think this would also make it possible so that you could make it so that the "flying mode" models would be able to charge each other, but not those on the ground in the same turn. It would open up anti-air melee, which I think could be quite fun. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7620433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7620433.page GMT
Maybe you could say flying infantry have the rules that Eldar Jetbikes have. Gun Drones, Gargoyles, samael etc would be awesome with that.

and people wouldn't complain about the hard to hit nonsense which is OP on flying monstrous creatures IMO cause they can still shoot 360 degrees.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7620438.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637232/7620438.page GMT
To be fair, I'd love it if my Stormboyz were immune to blasts/templates, could jink, and only be snap shot at like other Flying things. But that would be a little too much.
