I love my striking scorpions, even more so after reading Gav Thorpe's Path of the warrior. I made sure I included at least one unit in my army back when I played the table top game.
I could only vote 3 times So I went: Dire Avenger: you thought the storm bolter was scary eh? Mobile + high rate of fire = RIP any infantry at short range. Swooping Hawk: I hope Hawks will end up countering other races jump pack troupers quite effectively. "Oh no, the barbarian wants to smash into me"-> fly a bit. Unleash glorious disco lasers. Taste The Rainbow! Other jump pack troops have jump packs to close into melee. Swooping Hawk can maintain the range. GG, thank you for showing up, back to the respawn screen with you. And hopefully, grenade packs, ambushes etc. Hoping for some variety in weaponry ranges. Haywire grenades because F vehicles too. Howling Banshee. Normally, I would be more of a scorpion fan. But, how will the stealth work etc.. When I'm tired and need to vent, rushing into combat with two power weapons screaming my lungs out seems like a very good choice to me ! Hoping for some acrobatic movements a la Jedi Knight series. (wall-run/jump,..) Oh, and devs stated a while ago Banshee would block shots with the weapons.. not sure if still valid of course. Striking Scorpions: done properly, I hope someone to make "will it blend" videos with the chainsword.
Yeah, it really depends if the class is done well and like I want it Warlock with a Spear in melee and some nice powers to enhance myself. I have something like a Jedi in mind^^ Or a Warlock with just cool Destructive Powers. I fear we won't get them though, atleast in the beginning. It will end up being more supporty. Strikingscorpion depends very much on the mechanics, but if that works out I love the Archetyp and the Design (look) of Striking scorpions. Firedragons do not intrigue me that much. It just seems to straightforward Darkreapers will be fun at times, but I am not reeeally excited for them. Maybe depending on the implementation, but I am not sure how i would want them. I mean if they can combine High dps long range and a somewhat good defense (heavy armor) I would be for it, but that just sounds OP.^^ Direavengers if they can have a Sword and Catapult. Mostly because they look cool with the Sword I am looking forward to swooping hawks, a good flight and grenade mechanic will be needed. Definitly hyped for Banshees^^ But it will be a fine balance between: Can't get in combat and always get in combat.
My mates and I would really love to see warp spiders but in the meantime we'll likely enjoy swooping hawks.
It has probably already been mentioned, but I see a severe lack of Warlocks on your list! That and Wraithguard, which I will spawn every time I get the chance! Otherwise Swooping Hawk, Banshees, and Scorpions. I think the mechanics for all of them will be great and Flying, Agility and Stealth are really some of my favourite things. That said, if a Warp Spider is ever released..........
Oh yeah, clearly Warpspiders if they were here I would probably play nothing else On that Note Ranger would be pretty high too.
I am currently debating whether to play Chaos or Eldar. If the warlock is fun to play and they bring in the ranger class definitely will play Eldar. If they don't I'm going for the Aspiring Sorcerer in Chaos.
I've always wanted to do this View: https://youtu.be/08XsAR1TsbY?t=21s in a videogame. Needless to say I will be looking forward to playing as a banshee with an executioner.
