Surely the 30 cm option is simply better.

That's my gut view. That ability to stand-off and not take any AA fire from the various bombers/Thunderhawks you'll be intercepting outweighs losing a pip of to-hit, by my eye, or at least is equal in power.


Against a thawk, landa or LC I'd say the 30cm was the better option but for the multitiuse of aircraft with no rear flak - tbolts, other chaos aircraft, vampires, 15cm is better

I voted for the 15cm option purely because I felt it would differentiate how the hellblades work in game: they become terror weapons: keeps an opponent bunched up nicely :-)

wouldn't it be better to ask, which is more chaos-like? surely being up close is more there style, so 15cm would be the best choice

I agree that style should be the determining factor. Not just what is "chaos-like" but how you want it to compare to the aircraft styles of other armies. In other words, how should it work compared to Eldar or Tau or Ork or Imperial aircraft in similar roles?

I'm not sure about points, but I'd lean to the short range as the best stylistic fit.

As the numbers are pretty even I'm going to go with 15cm - but at 200. I'm dropping the points as 30cm at 200 hasn't proved overpowered.
