I bought the aspects so that I could move the detachmen=

Need the mobility=

Jetbikes are alot more expensive than the h=
arlies and falcons a whole lot
more pricey than the aspects. I would have =
to give up a detachment to do
either of these. I will crunch the numbers a=

The warlock titan still looks so cool tha=

The good point of the warlock is that =
in a 1000 point game it is likely to be mostly unkilleable(barring bad luck=
of course) Your opponent probaly won't have enough Fp to throw at it, and =
it's hard to CC it. (30 AF and you can only get 4 guys on it!) Compared to =
other titans the Phantom has a ridiculusly high AF/DC ratio. Another thing.=
You could replace the aspects with the nightspinners with bikes. Which cou=
ld run. They are more usefull in a FF and less in CC, oh well. Take your pi=
ck. Cost is the same either way.
