Storm ravens: i think they need a 4+ save to make them worth it. Just too easy to knock them out of the sky, to make it worth paying the high points for on top of already costly troops i think they need more reslience. Adding them to a formation makes it potentially the bts, and a fragile one.

That'd make it as tough as a Land Raider (Barring crossfire), which really isn't justified.

Not reinforced. Land speeders are 4? They just dont play out well at 5+ so far as i have tried them (albeit in the grey knights not blood qngels but same situations)

They're 5+ RA currently. That's better than a straight 4+.

Are Titans not allowed in the BA list? If not, what is the reasoning?

The AdMech hates their guts because they got Lucifer Engines and wouldn't share.

No word on why other Space Marine chapters don't...

Oh wow. I see some substantial changes.

No titans is certainly... something.

Can't even give any feedback right now because I can't remember half of the rules. But a friend expressed an interest in Epic: A so I'll be taking this for a whirl on Saturday and see what happens.

How are you supposed to model stormravens? The initial concept (when we didn't have a model in 40k) pretty much screamed thunderbrick to me, but this seems to have a picture of thunderhawk for some reason.

(Then again I don't care much for the whole idea of stormravens right now because I like my thunderbricks being thunderbricks. But I have to try them out to see and maybe get a real thunderhawk for a change.)

I've used the old Thunderhawk model, the 2nd version, that's about half the size of the current metal Thunderhawk model and about a third the size of the current Forgeworld Thunderhawk model.

Yes, I know, that's what I've been using as regular thunderhawks :p Oh well.

Oh my God why are Attack Bikes mandatory now? I don't even have any attack bikes, I have been using the ancient plastic bike models. Was the regular bike formation too good?

(Yes. Yes it was. But I'd rather have had a price hike or something.)

The fixed formation composition is part of showing how the Blood Angels don't use Bikes much, and so aren't as flexible with their Bike formations as other Chapters.

Perhaps paint one as a Librarian? That count easily "count-as" an Attack Bike.

A single attack bike actually tends to make a Bike formation a bit better than a pure Bikes-only formation.
