Such a cool model that you will likely never use in a competitive game...

Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - Datasheet Review post! I have recently needed to take a new direction. All the details about that is found Here - The Great 40k Review Plan

This is not just regurgitating the stats and skills. I provide my own assessment of what I think of the unit and its capabilities. Often... about how to use them best... or how to kill them best!

Hobby Fund - Working myself into the clear

With my hobby posts, I generate a hobby fund. 50% of the income goes to @zakl.hobbyfund. What is interesting on that Hive account is my Grand Imperial army! The last post of which was the Warhammer 40k - Grand Imperial Army Post 23 - 2,855pts

Those posts are set to "Decline Payout" so support for me needs to come to this, main Hive channel.

I am collecting funds in the following ways: - Blogging about Warhammer to earn HBD. (only on @zakludick as mentioned above.) - Accepting donations - Can be sent directly to @zakl.hobbyfund in HBD - Selling and trading.

Back to the review!

Drukhari, Voidraven Bomber

10th Edition Index

The Voidraven Bomber is absolutely deadly... 235pts... for which Drukhari can field plenty of other things... but yeah... its a great aircraft... which the current edition does not support.

Let's check its stats!

Stats

Movement 20"+ Toughness 9 Save 4+/6++(armor/invul/Feel No Pain) Wounds 12 Ld 6+ OC 0

Weapons

Weapon Loadout: 2x Void Lances, Bladed Wings.

Options: Can exchange the 2x Void Lances for 2x Dark Scythes. This model can be equipped with Voidrave Missiles (Why would'nt you?)

Ranged Weapons

Dark Scythe

24" Range, 6 Shots, Hitting on 3+, S8, AP-4 and 2 Damage each.

Void Lance

36" Range, 2 Shots, Hitting on 3+, S14, AP-4 and D6+2 Damage each.

Voidraven Missiles - Implosion Missiles

48" Range, D3 Shots, Hitting on 3+, S9, AP-2 and 3 Damage each. Blast (Plus 1 Attack for every 5 models in target unit, rounding down.)

Voidraven Missiles - Implosion Missiles

48" Range, D6 Shots, Hitting on 3+, S7, AP-1 and 1 Damage each. Blast (Plus 1 Attack for every 5 models in target unit, rounding down.)

Melee Weapons

Bladevanes

3 Attacks, Hitting on 4+, S6, AP0 and 1 Damage each.

Abilities

Deadly Demise D3 - Roll a D6 when it is destroyed, on a 6, deal D3 Mortal Wounds to every unit within 6" Stealth - When shot at, -1 to Hit for the enemy attacks.

Void Mine

Once per battle, after moving. Select a MODEL. Roll a D6 for each unit within 6" of that model, on a 4+ that unit suffers D6 Mortal Wounds.

Thoughts

Right, so Stealth - good. Weapons - amazing, either anti-infantry or anti-tank. Both amazing Close Combat - terrible! Rule - amazing, great for bombing a single large unit that allows you to splash D6 Mortal Wounds everywhere.

Great aircraft... but Pricey, not likely to see them on the battlefield.

Thank you for reading!
