Space Wolves Stormfang Gunship Info
« on: July 21, 2014, 03:42:42 PM »
Alrighty guys, if anyone is interested in snagging the (awesome) new SM/SW flyer please let me know ASAP.  :)

They're $81.00 and will be available on Friday, August 1st.

Looks like the rules are in an upcoming White Dwarf (as usual).

Looks a whole lot like a Caestus Assault Ram...can't wait to read the rules!
Due to some screwup in their gene-seed genetic radiation protection, all Salamanders are black...We're talking coal black, pitch black, hexadecimal code #000000, the missing word in the phrase "...as the void of space." That kind of black. With glowing red eyes.

No news on a codex or cards.

Almost all of the time you guys know more about what's coming up for GW releases than I do.

Don't know how I feel about this thing. It signifies the end of one of the better Space Wolf bits of lore I liked, which is that they generally don't like to fight from the skies and don't like teleporting, etc.

I guess it depends a lot on its' rules, if it ends up being more of a lumbering gunboat it will make more sense.

Holy crap I cant stand it anymore.  The lore you are referring to has nothing to do with FLYING as in flyers, space ships, transports, ariel combat etc.  It only has to do with not liking jump packs and preferring to fight on the ground leaving the aerobatics to the young warriors. 

As for teleporting they just don't trust it so therefore avoid using most of the time.

So please lets not get into they don't like flying.  They fly ALL the time in many different forms.  They even have pilots that are specialists if you ever read the SW books.

I had a big reply, but I know I'm wasting my time, so I'm just not even going to get into this.
