Marlfox Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I have decided to do a Merc unit for CAV, Grey's Falcons. I would LIKE to put the commander of the unit in a CAV with an avian name/appearance...any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrome Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Well... you could put him in a Falcon. Big guns, crappy movement tho. If you're good, you could probably paint the nose of a Mastodon up to look like a bird's beak. Its always nice to have your commander sitting safely in the back throwing artillery shells at the bad guys too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowTiger Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 When the thunderbird is released that would make a cool command unit...at present i'm sculpting a command unit it's a super heavy that will be expensive..points wise ...but it will be worth it on the battle field...after all command units are the first thing everyone wants to kick off the battle field first...i dunno why ...but when the brown stuff hits the swirly thing ...anything goes..

Leech Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 You want a capable CAV, with decent armour and defensive capabilities, and you want it avian in appearance and/or name? That's easy, you need a Starhawk VI... a.k.a. the Hawk 6 :o) Good guns, great movement, good armour and 6DT's so it'll last a while... oh and +4 TL and amazing DFM's. The Hawk 6 also is the best looking CAV seen thus far. The only hitch, it costs 509 points! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeneki Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Most of the UCORs have noticable naming conventions. You could do a SyRaM force list and be pretty safe on aerial names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Lightning 2 Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 That's easy, you need a Starhawk VI... a.k.a. the Hawk 6 :o) Presuming, of course, it ever get's released... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowTiger Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Thats a good point frank but i like the looks of the thunderbird...and with a few up grades it will be realy smooth...just wait till you see the ambasador... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthwalker Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Personally hoping for a Rhino or Emperor with 36" Guns....... Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leech Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I'd rather take a gun with +7 RAV against hard targets and 36" range than a gun with a +8 RAV and 32" range. Course, since range is so cheap, a +8 at 36" would only be about 4 points more.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
