Read it however you like.....

We've had the circular discussions and comparisons to the vampire which does perfectly well as a DC2 air transport without ATSKNF....

edit: I'm not trying to chuck a spanner in the works here, I just think fearless thunderhawks are like bandaging a wound that isn't there, and it makes them better than a codex thawk in several, more 'gamey' regards (the blast marker issue, and also being able to drop them on the deck to engage and contest TSNP without fear of being destroyed if broken within 15cm of a couple of enemy stands is a potential game winner)

I had missed the price increase on the preds, that's a good change

Slowly building a EC army but have yet to playtest so my comments do not carry a huge amount of weight yet. But after reading the thread I'm concerned with two things.

1. Fearless thunderhawks might make them too good. They are obviously really nasty even without it.

2. Theres way to few Noise marines in the lists to feel like emperors children. I suspect they might very well be too expensive...

Good news!

EC 4.xx is approved!!!

Thank you to all the playtesters. Your help was invaluable and essential. Dave is working on getting the list into the Tournament Pack and we're scrubbing the document for errors. Stand by for a new thread and list pdf.

Before any skivvies are twisted or conniption-fits had, the list was not approved "as-is". Chaos thunderhawks have dropped fearless, Hell Scourges have been increased in price to account for their general awesomeness, and preds/LRs have gotten a bump as well. An exhaustive list of the changes will be in the new thread.

The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.

Congratulations!

Great news! Congrats on fine work! Good call for dropping Fearless from the Thunderhawk!!
