Difference between a Stormtalon/hawk Gunship/Interceptor?

[LordPathos]

Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything to obvious.

Gunship has 1 less toughness, otherwise all stats are the same. Gunship is cheaper points wise but are both same power level. Gunship can also hover.

Interceptor has a las based weapon.

Am I missing anything? I'm debating if I want one over the other and I don't see a downside to taking the Interceptor.

Its been 5 days. Nobody loves me.

what do you want me to say? they have different stats and load outs. they're different units. read the rules, decide which one you want to use.

Well you asked a Marine question on a Tyranid forum. What else did you expect?

Fine. I looked it up. They all have different rules and cost different points values. One gets +1 to hit units that fly, one gets +1 to hit units that don't have fly, and one gets no penalty to moving and firing heavy weapons. They have different wound amounts and very different armament options.

Did you even read the entries for them? C'mon man. This is like asking what the difference between a Harpy, Hive Crone, and winged Tyrant is.

I asked a Marine question in the other GW stuff section. Have you seen the amount of Chaos and Marine threads that have been coming out? This is where you ask these questions.

And yes, I read the datasheets, I stated the differences between the two. I even said I wanted to know if I missed something. So if one is better at shooting ground units and one is better at shooting air units then I obviously missed something. Thats all you had to say.

Have YOU read anything I said?

You had it right the first time.

To answer your question. Don't take any of them. Flyers are ass and you're an ass if you take them.

Glad we cleared that up!

So, three of each to escorts my fire raptor and two storm ravens?

Has anyone ever told you, you're bad people?

[gigasnail]

I get that, a lot.

[LordPathos]

I'll just magnetize. Which is the proper way of doing anything with anything in this game.

[infornography]

I believe the storm talon can hover and the other one cannot. That strikes me as a fairly important difference.

Besides the interceptor being tougher which has already been pointed out, it comes with the +1 to hit against fly on its main gun. The stormtalon has strafing run for the +1 to hit vs non fly and can hover.

Flyers are dope and don't listen to any of these haters. I have two ravens and two talons. I haven't run them all together yet, but I will...oh, I will.

[Koyori]

Behave guys, if someone ask something there is no need to behave like jerks. Not like everyone can keep track of every rule there is.

Here man.
