My apologies, the aspects should have been armour 4 - typo. Thanks for the
input though. When I get the points formula, I'll be able to playtest most
of these out some more.
Your thoughts on the Warp Hunter are correct. Like I had mentioned, these
haven't been playtested that much. I wasn't quite sure what to do with the
Warp Hunter. Back in SM 2nd, its weapon was identical to the Titan DC. I
basically took it from there. It wasn't a Superheavy so I don't think it
would qualify for EoV status as a Cobra. On the other hand, Vortex
Missiles are killers (worse than these would be) and IG get them really
easily. I think a limit of the number in each detachment would be the
easiest way to limit them without compromising on their functionality.

I think that all of the Aspects should have 4+ armour, axept maybe the
Reapers. Reapers should be 10cm move, banshees should have 5 assault, 6
is too high.

This seems redundant.

This vehicle would be quite expensive, since it is a very fast and
fragile version of the WE. Probably more useful too, and since this
thing can knock off any Titan fairly easily, especially with its speed
and availability, I would suggest lowering it's range to 30cm.

I always thought the shooty WE was a direct replacement of this.
