Please tell me that I'm not the only one that has seen through the facade of GW's RAI attempt with the power weapons. I've already made a mold of the 2nd ed banshee exarch's power axe and I'm currently waiting on the faq before all of my banshees are fitted with power axes.Howling Banshees: AP3 nerfs them a tad, but then they never excelled at taking on terminators in my opinion Acrobatic is nerfed a bit as counterattack has to pass a LD test now, but their LD is very high so it is only an extremely minor nerf. Still good Marine hunters if backed by a psyker, still in desperate need of a new codex entry.
Sure they make you go at I1, but banshee masks make you go at I10. (FAQ needed)
Then they add +1S and are Ap2. Suddenly - for just a bit of hobby work, Banshees are possibly the best CC unit in the codex, and maybe the game.
Does the Maugetar count as a Axe or Sword?Maugan Ra: Same as before, great if you can spare the points but unlikely to be worth it attached to dark reapers.
