=====The Soaring Spite Special Rules===== *'''Masque Forms - Serpent's Brood''': Models that have {{W40Kkeyword|FLY}} or are embarked on units which have {{W40Kkeyword|FLY}} treat their Pistols as Assault 1 if they or their Transport Advanced that turn. Also, Assault weapons on units with {{W40Kkeyword|FLY}} don't get the penalty for Advancing. Aiming pistols sideways is not optional. **Perfect for fusion pistol drive-bys. Also, removing the minus 1s from your 'weavers is a very nice bonus. No reason to not advance with this form. **This is a very good trait just because it extends the pitiful 6" range of your pistols up to functional 12" effectively making them meltaguns. Also, never underestimate a 6" increase in range, as with proper deployment and/or screening, it is very easy to ensure almost complete safety for a majority of valuable targets, though this trait doesn't help you with screening. *'''Warlord Trait - Skystrider''': Your Warlord can disembark from a Transport even after it has moved. **Holy heck, you've got a way to make your Meltas have a threat range of 50" (47" with rolling two damage). Put this on a Shadowseer that knows Twilight pathways, put it and a Fusion Pistol squad into a Starweaver, move the Transport 22" then disembark the Shadowseer, cast Twilight pathways, and zoom! ***If you give the aforementioned Shadowseer the Faolchu's Talon relic, this threat range is buffed to an even more absurd 56" (or 53" for two dice melta rolls.) **It's also good for supporting a first-turn Skyweaver charge with a Great Harlequin Troupe Master. Advance a couple of squads of Skyweavers and a Starweaver with a 5-clown Troupe and the Troupe Master up to 22", disembark the Master, thus giving the nearby Skyweavers and the Starweaver both re-rolls of ones to hit and re-rolls to wound in melee, shoot the ranged weapons (you can use Troupe's Fusion Pistols and Skyweavers' Haywire Cannons to destroy any transports or vehicles near your target), use the Starweaver to eat up Overwatch, let the Skyweavers slice and dice whatever needs to be sliced and diced, then Skystride the Troupe Master back to safety. Disengage, rinse, repeat. Bonus points for using The Hundred Swords of Vaul to hide this strat until the game starts. *'''Stratagem - Skystride (1 CP)''': Use this stratagem before your unit consolidates. You can consolidate up to 6" towards the closest {{W40kKeyword|SOARING SPITE Transport}}, and if all models would end their consolidation move within 3" of it, they can immediately embark on it as if it were your Movement phase (even if they disembarked earlier that turn). *'''Remnant of Glory - Faolchu's Talon''': If the bearer is embarked on a transport, the transport gains an extra 6" of movement. Additionally, if the transport is destroyed with the bearer embarked on it, no disembarking models will be slain and the transport will not explode. </div> </div>
