Frater Cornelius Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Whenever I hear this song, I want to make an Imperial Night Bomber Regiment using the D-99 rules with Vultures, Valkyries and Marauder Bombers/Fighters. Who's with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamansky Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Those would be too heavy to be 'Night Witches' Those night bombers were bi-planes made of plywood and canvas and were also called 'sewing machines with wings'. 'Canvas wings of death' in the song is not a metaphor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 I am well aware who the night witches were. However, why replicate? Just base it on the idea and fast forward tech by 30k years ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamansky Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I meant no offence that's why i put that many smilies in one message. i wanted to say that you'll need to make it as cheap as possible to follow the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 No offense taken, bud. I am just into the spirit of the idea. While I do not have time or money to follow up on this idea, I would go OTT on this one. Helghast-esque Trooper dropping out of camo planes, while other heavy bombers turn the area into a nightmarish hellscape. 100% efficiency, no pity and no remorse. Stealth perfected. Change a few words in the lyrics above and you have their theme song as well ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamansky Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Sounds cool while on paper. I'd like to see their perfomance on tabletop. In my 3 latest games i was hitting my ass with my own boot for not taking relay or fleet officer, my flyers were not going out of reserve on time.

Frater Cornelius Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 D-99 has a rule akin to drop pod assault. Half of your drop sentinels, turrets and Valkyrie-chassis fliers automatically deep strike T1, rounded up. This would be a thematic list though. No way I will play this against a competitive player :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
