  I use them as flying artillery. If I think my opponent is using air power,
I'll take three thunder hawks and 5 interceptors. I prefer to play without
flyers though, because the rules seem....dumb.

I had a friend who fielded a detat of 5 thunderhawks and 5 marauders (a 7000 -
8000 point game, I think). It blew apart about 4 detats during the course of the
game.
