Stormtroopers disembark from a Valkyrie

This picture is from a recent game.

My Orks had just shot down the Valkyrie (a lucky shot from a twin-linked Big Shoota) and the Stormtroopers were lucky to get out alive!

The crashed Valkyrie then provided cover for both sides.

Downed Valkyrie

Forge World have announced a new piece of scenery, a downed Valkyrie flyer.

This large scenery piece would make a great objective to fight over in games of 40K, or perhaps even in a scenario where the surviviors of the crash-landing have to avoid capture and fight their way out of enemy held territory! (Yes, I get excited by new models. Did you not know that by now?) This Valkyrie has certainly taken quite a pounding, with the fuselage riddled with bullet holes and several huge holes in the remains of the port wing. The interior is still fully detailed but half-filled with dirt after the forced landing.

I really like the downed Valkyrie, though I would have thought the front of the craft would have been more damaged in the “crash”.

I also like the fact at £36 it is half the price of an undamaged flyer.
