Aircaste Combatants...?
Ok i have picked up 6 Aircaste models and a lot of greenstuff and plasticard. My idea here is an aircaste combatant.. The idea was spawned by The Linkinpark Video "Points of Authority" and i have decided to model a few. I'll post updated pics when i get them started but as for now any ideas or otherwise?

They'd look good packing pulse rifles...
Completely unfluffy though. :-\ |

Re: Aircaste Combatants...?
The kick of the rifle would rip their arms off!

Re: Aircaste Combatants...?
from what i understood of pulse technology the kick would be minimal even in a rifle.. but i was going to probably just give them thinned down carbines.. no need for a big bulky weapon.. (and i know a drone works just as well) but i say a small squad of 6-8 with sustained flight would be great for some quick strikes to confuse and distract (maybe pin) and would be hard to hit.. give them grenades and the ability to barrage with them (once) allowing some recon, percision strikes..who knows..
I just think they'd looks wicked.. just got my aircaste i ordered a while back off forgeword.. ill just use these and save the others for my manta crew.. posting pics step by step when done..

Re: Aircaste Combatants...?
chop down some carbines, and rough up their armour a bit. they crashed, and i would assume they would have some light rifles with them. the question is weather to call them pulse rifles and a markerlight, or call them carbines. or make them objective counters
