I'd take a Stormraven over any of those options, but a Stormtalon will be much more versatile with the current incarnation of Skyfire/Interceptor. That Hunter is never shooting at full BS at a non flyer/swooping MC/skimmer, whereas the Stormtalon can do what it pleases.

Also, Heldrakes ain't shit in 7th from what I have experienced (faced 1 in my last and 2 in the one before). I am absolutely in love with the end of their reign of terror over my battlefields.

Heldrakes can only do one vector strike hit now.

As well, a flat D3 hits against a flier/swooping MC.

With the nerf of the Heldrake, Flyers have become almost completely irrelevant in my meta

Fuckin' eh man, no more dinobot woes! :drinks:

What would You think of bare Stormtalon with Assault Cannon and Heavy Bolter?

You would be effective against FMC's but likely not any other Fliers.
