Keep in mind that the Space Wolves still get access to a lot of the Forgeworld Marine vehicles (included a Space Wolf specific version of the Contemptor Dread) in the IA:A 2nd Ed. book, they've gotten a lot of Forgeworld love previously.

Raven Guard got a sinlge new model and rules in IA 8

And remember...IA 9 and 10 were entirely marines. Let another race have a book for once that doesn't have to include a flood of power armour douches

Does the Nightwing still have Titan Holo-fields, or the AA rule for it's weapons? If all it has going for it now is 2 lances and 2 shuricannons it seems kind of lackluster compared to the Razorwing with it's missile payload.

The Nightwing is identical in rules at everything, except it can be used as a skimmer in 40k games. In regular games its AA interceptor rule does nothing, cos theres no fliers in 40k, but it still gets its 4+ save.

The only difference is its nearly half the cost

The Phoenix has changed a bit. Its cheaper, can swap out its pulse laser with a twinlinked lance or a twin linked star cannon for free, and can change its missile launcher to a weaker blast weapon, instead of just 3 shots

Is the Nightwing for the corsair list only or can it be taken by any Eldar army? I assume the latter but as I'm not getting my book 'til Christmas I can't check.

[DrLove42]

The Nightwing i the book is as a FA choice for a corsair army.

It doesn't even have a page of data at the back of the book with all the other stuff, so probably not usable in a standard Eldar army. But you could nag at your gaming group to let you use it the same

[SotonShades]

That would possibly suggest to me that it may appear in the next codex, and GW have told FW to not include rules for it for Craftworlders...
