Hi,
Looks good to me, although personally I think the Ravenwing save
should be for all bikes and Landspeeders attached to the company with the
appropriate price rise.
I have painted up my Master of the Raven wing, so I chuffed that I
will finally be able to use him :).
Will we be doing special rules for the Deathwing?
Why not put the rough prices up anyway and then people can vote on
the points values before waiting until the end and flooding the list with a
large list of points values where some units could be overlooked.
Tom.

Eg. the Dark Angels. Even though the vote of confidence for me is still
open I post this one, since it's the last. Any further special chapters are
going to the Incoming!
The received suggestions have mostly concerned the Ravenwing. Namely, the
addition of the Mater of Ravenwing to replace the ordinary command unit and
the "jink" save. Of course, with addition of these the cost of Ravenwing
would go up some 150 (or perhaps more?) points. There was a poll about
Master of Ravenwing a while ago and the winning suggestion is below,
although I have toned it down a bit from the original:
Master of Ravenwing
Master of Ravenwing is the commander of the Dark Angels 2nd company. His
custom
Landspeeder is protected by an energy field and equipped with state of the
art
intelligence devices and extensive data processors.You may change the
orders of
one Ravenwing* detachment when it is activated if it is within 15cm of the
Master.
Move: 30cm
Save: 5+
CAF: +4
Weapons:
Twin Assault Cannon:
Range: 35cm
Attack dice: 2
To-hit: 4+
Tsm: 0
Notes: HQ unit, Ravenwing**, special rules.
*Repeat: RAVENWING, meaning any of the three detachments belonging to the
Ravenwing company. NOT any attached detachment.
**The Master can use either his normal save or the special Ravenwing save
against any single shot, not both.
Ravenwing (formerly known as "jink" save): Ravenwing bike and land speeder
riders have been extensively trained to dodge incoming shots. Ravenwing
bikes and land speeders get a unmodifiable 6+ save when they're being shot
at. This only applies to the three detachments in the Ravenwing company,
NOT any other Dark Angel bike units.
RAVENWING RESTRICTIONS:
Only bike and/or landspeeder support cards may be attached to the
ravenwing.
There has been concern about the "jink" save being too powerful, but IMO
this is not so. In practice it means that 1 bike/speeder in 6 survives an
attack.

P.S What should be done about the unit point costs? Yar has done extensive
study on the subject and I think me doing the same kind of thing would be
redundant and thus unnecessary. Does anybody object if I just post the
suggested point values so people can comment them?
