Aeronautica Imperialis: New Asuryani Aces Take Flight With New Aircraft
The Aeldari are getting new aircraft in Aeronautica Imperialis. The Hemlock Wraithfighter and Nightshade Interceptor are coming in hot!
Say hello to two new aircraft coming to Aeronautica Imperials. The Aeldari are getting some more firepower in the form of these fighters. Say hello to the Hemlock Wraithfighter and the Nightshade Interceptor.
“Fans of the Aeldari and Aeronautica should look sharp – two new aircraft are prepping for takeoff. Foes of the Aeldari will want to look even sharper… they’re both extremely deadly. “
Hemlock Wraithfighters
The Hemlock Wraithfighter brings the punch with those deadly Heavy D-Scythes. If you can close the gap and get in to range with them, those Heavy D-Scythes will cut your targets down to size.
That might not seem like a lot of dice but they don’t need a ton of shots to drop their targets. Damage starts racking up on a 2+ and you’ll score two damage on a 3+ thanks to it’s special rule. Those weapons are nasty!
“And with the peerless speed and agility (and yes, they also have the Jink special rule) you expect from an Asuryani fighter, you’ll be lining up shots all over the board, with a very real chance at taking out an enemy fighter in every round. They can even line up effective strafing runs at ground targets, taking out tough bunkers in one fusillade while other aircraft might have to circle around for second run.”
Nightshade Interceptor
“Piloted not by a seer, but an Aspect Warrior, Nightshade Interceptors will rattle any opponent that has to face them in a protracted dogfight. Known as Crimson Hunters, these pilots live up to their name, striking out with pinpoint-accurate lasers to carve their targets into burning chunks. “
Yep, the Crimson Hunters are back and just as deadly as ever. Their twin Bright Lances are no joke either capable of lighting up the enemy at any range.
If you get caught in their crosshairs you’re going to take some hits for sure — and you will get caught in their crosshairs…
These fighters are coming soon to pre-order from Games Workshop. Keep an eye out for them so you can add both to your roster!
