Like a bolt out of war-torn skies comes the Storm Wing – salvation for the Emperor’s forces, and a bane to their foes. The Adeptus Astartes Storm Wing gives Warhammer 40,000 players background information and rules that allow them to collect and field this deadly combination of fighter-craft.
For the Adeptus Astartes to achieve their rapid strike style of warfare, they need to maintain air superiority. Nothing clears the upper atmosphere better than the Adeptus Astartes Storm Wing. Two Stormtalons and a Stormraven Gunship in tight formation can unleash a hail of shot to send enemy fighters spiraling downwards. Rule the skies!

Good morning everyone,
It’s day five on our 2013 Digital Advent Calendar.
Today’s addition takes the form of a new Dataslate for a Space Marine flyer formation.What’s not to love about conducting a lightning strike by a squadron of Space Marine gunships, right into the heart of the enemy army? Made all the better if you shout ‘Bring the rain!’ as you roll your dice (we can’t guarantee you’ll roll any better though, but I’m sure it will help).
So what we have here is the same Formation rules from last time.
– It must include the units described.
– It counts as the same faction as the codex it is from.
– Any number of them can be fielded alongside other detachments and each counts as a detachment.
– They do NOT count as an allies detachment.
– They CAN be fielded if they match legal allies to an army’s primary detachment, but they DO NOT count as the single allied detachment in this case.
With early downloaders saying the formation grants BS:5.
~I’m sure Marine players can find a handy use for this one.
