So the Guild already has a multirole fighter in the form of the Harpy which you've no doubt spotted by now, but now it also has a modular support craft.

Blister will contain enough components to make a variety of bombers, a transport craft or an electronic warfare craft.

Which excites you the most?

Personally, I like them all, but the the transport is my fav

Gotta go with the AP Bomber, that missile box looks brutal.

Note to self: Hold off on FW Aircraft?

The blister will contain enough bits to make all of the variants .

but i do like basically all the extra bits.

Not so keen on the aircraft so far (look fine for spacecraft, but not really aerodynamic...)

Any chance of some pictures against some infantry too to gain some scale perspective?

Also either the bombs/missiles look too big, or the aircraft too small (i'm guessing the latter, but no real idea)

Yeah, to echo the previous two posts, as an aircraft the Roc makes a decent looking spaceship. The grand slam bomb set look a bit OTT. I could possibly imagine an aircraft carrying one of those in a pinch, but four is a big stretch.

The blister will come with a variety of munitions from conventional bombs and moabs, to large and small missiles. You'll be able to arm your Roc in a ton of different ways. In addition if you have spare Khazari plasma cannons or rocket pods then they are also compatible.

The super heavy ordnance was intended for the two centre hardpoints (two is necessary, as you can't really have a single centre slot and still fit the flyer on a flight stand )

Regarding the aerodynamics: Well that is of course a matter of taste. The Guild aircraft are supposed to be multi role space/athmospheric, a bit like Star Wars fighters/bombers. All things considered, realistic aerodynamics is pretty uncommon in a lot of sci fi universes (the Thunderhawk springs to mind). Also, proper aerofoils is a non-issue if you posses anti-grav technology. You just need propulsion - If you have enough, and your aircraft is made from a strong enough material to withstand the friction and pressure, you don't even need to be aerodynamic. ...But of course that is just trying to justify something scientifically, when suspension of disbelief works just as well
Personally I imagine these a bit like a cross between an A-10 Warthog, a Star Wars Tie Bomber, and a V-22 Osprey.

I like the transport best - really love it, actually. From above though, is it easy to tell it apart from the AP bomber? I've noticed in some game systems that visual differences on the undersides of models are hard to see from a player's vantage point.

And I must say I'm not in love with the AT bomber's nose-mounted weapon proboscis.

Roc's and Harpy's are now 'In Production', expect to see hundreds of the blighters buzzing round EW HQ.

Sweet. Love the amount of options. I wish they were a more "Imperial" design asthetic, but of course understand why they aren't. Might end up getting some for the sheer awesome factor, or to go with an eventual Behemoth Legio.

Mmm... Behemoth Legio.
