I think multiple shots could represent the larger blast radius. We don't have to even give it a slow to fire rule. |

The vengeance may be stepping on the typhoon's toes a bit at AP 3, AT 4; the Typhoon being AP 3, AT 5; both having heavy bolters. Like I said earlier... is it really necessary? Epic doesn't need every item shoe-horned into a list. There's enough abstraction among all the variants to do a specific j... |

Can DA tactical squads with plasma alternate their firing so 3 squads can fire a turn, or must all 6 fire in one turn? |

The vengeance may be stepping on the typhoon's toes a bit at AP 3, AT 4; the Typhoon being AP 3, AT 5; both having heavy bolters. Wondering if the Vengeance could be made to fire 2x, then stagger its slow firing shots so that it could fire every turn. As the rules stand, how do multiple shots and sl... |

Its "squad" is the LS Darkshroud itself :) The Stealth effect it has confers to units in a 6" radius in Wh40k. To small for Epic. But enoughto give an Invulnerable Save t othe LS Darskshroud itself. The Inspiring mainly comes from the relict it carries. I would rather use existing Ep... |

Would the shroud confer invulnerable on its squad? Otherwise, giving a terrain modifier to hit on its squad could work. |

The nephilim is flown by the Ravenwing. I think the missile should be represented. They are AA. But, AA 4+ is a bit too good. Honestly, they aren't really that great in 40k. Too bad heavy bolters are already precidented at AA 5+. I think they would be better represented at 6+, pesonally. DWK and RWK... |

I guess 4 bikes in a formation is reasonable since devastators and jump pack marines come in 4's. would be nice to upgrade to extra, like in the current epic list, though. |

Plasma Storm Battery has a range of 24". The Nephilim is armed with 6 Darksword Missiles. All are one-shot. A full Ravenwing Attack Squadron is 6 Bikes, 1 Attack Bike and 1 Land Speeder. That's 10 Marines which is the usual Squad strength. I would rather see a formation of 4 Bikes (2 Squads/Sq... |

Remember, let's not try to shoe-horn every single GW wetdream into this list. Agreed. I think your attitude toward hurricane bolters may be the answer to the plasma problem. The Dark Talon would be a skimmer. It has a more similar role to a Storm Raven than a Nephilim (even though the Storm Raven m... |

I could see the formation changing slightly from the current Compendium version 2.1 RW Attack formation: It has 4 bikes, 2 Tornados and 2 Attack bikes. The price could also be reduced for points savings if you just have 2 of each type = 6 units not 8 (of original). Jetbikes with plasma guns. Plasma... |

I agree, the Dark Talon should be a skimmer. The Nephilim is a lot of wishful thinking, meaning, this is what it was supposed to be; but unfortunately it is not in 40k. I agree with the comment that the Avenger Megabolter should be 30". I am divided on the next point, and that is the 2x shots. ... |

I'm hoping that will not be such a hard task with, potentially, 2 fighters to choose from. Hopefully, we will be able to sort out RW formations, as well. I also hope we can move on to a true DA list instead of a more limited "Hunt for the Fallen" list people keep holding on to. But yeah, l... |

No, I haven't. But, I've got about a month of vacation coming up for Chinese new year and hope to introduce a few friends to Epic and get a few games in. I'd like to do some play-testing for the new Ulthwe list, as well. I've never done a battle report, so, I imagine they won't have pictures, or pla... |
