Scimitar jetbike vs bike

[TempestBlade]

So I’m looking to start a HH Dark Angel force focusing on Ravenwing and I was wondering which to put my HQs on:bike or jetbike. Also what to use for HQs to feel dark angely? Thanks in advance

The Dark Angels were the first Legion, with longer access to a lot of tech that was scarce and hard to come by even amongst the Legions at their most well-supplied zenith. Scimitars would probably be available quite widely. It's also an obviously more noble steed than the boring old wheeled bike, especially for a Knight of Caliban such as a Ravenwing Praetor. They're also more quintessentially Heresy-era than the ordinary bike. They look cool as all hell too. I am obviously biased though.

On the gaming-side, they turn absolutely filthy with molecular acid, they are more maneuverable, and for Centurion-level characters, they include a save-boost as well in the cost as well. Command squads get less bonuses pr. point compared to regular bikes, but the Scimitars are more expensive than regular bikes, both in points and dollachos, so more prohibitive.

Jetbikes are almost always a better choice, and with the DA acid this is doubly so.
