Editing Warhammer 40,000/8th Edition Tactics/Imperial Guard (section)

=====Flyers=====
Your flyers are all very tanky, due to Airborne and Hard to Hit, so they are ideal anchors (aside from their cost) - stick them on the table during deployment to soak up and avoid enemy fire, and get ready to surprise your enemy with presents containing violence.

*'''Avenger Strike Fighter:'''
*'''Lightning Strike Fighter:'''
*'''Thunderbolt Heavy Fighter:''' Slight callout here, as it's your only 15 wound plane and has a 6+ regen, so it's definitely your tankiest plane.
*'''Valkyrie:'''
*'''Valkyrie Sky Talon:''' Fewer options than a basic Valkyrie and you can't take them in squads, but they can transport either a Tauros or 2 Drop Sentinels. Previously you could spam these guys alone, however with their new points increase valks are generally better value.  It should be noted that you ''can'' use these to shove Heavy Flamer sentinels down your opponent's throat..... but since your sentinels already have both Scout and Aerial Drop, it seems dubious that it would be worth the points.  Also works on Heavy Flamer Tauroses, of course, but..... ''why''?
**If you're planning on taking Multi-Laser and Rocket Pod Valkyries, take Heavy Bolter and Rocket Pod Sky Talons instead. For 2 points less they will kick out an average of 10 Heavy Bolter shots, and a Heavy Bolter is better than a Multi-Laser point-for-point.
*'''Vendetta:'''
*'''Vulture:'''
