sounds interesting. would like to see what all it has.
for 3 extra shots then a normal ion cannon, you loose one ap.
by the 1-3 does that mean you can take them in units of 1 to 3. cause that would be neat. bunch of fusion ones (fusion collider and fusion blaster) with target lock. drone in the front for tanking shots.
im liking these guys. have always loved stealth suit.

the shadow suits seem to fill some of the same role that the hazard suits fill. with some fusion and higher toughness then normal suit. sucks they may be elites also. was hoping for a fast attack slot.
but i really like them i hope they are good.
read on one site they may have the ability that once per game before something shoots they can make it snap shot at them. very salty rumor tho. and if they come in units of three does that mean each one can do it or is it for the unit. we will see i guess lol

ghostkeel rules. Seem pretty awesome.
I may want three or so. lol
the drones give stealth unless you have stealth(which the ghost has) then they give shourded. and over 12 inches away you get double the cover save.
oh and if you fire ignore cover at them each one can make you snap shot at the unit once per battle. it does say the bearer can do it not the unit. but it works on the unit. so a unit of three can make that hell turkey snap shot on them for 3 turns. or any ap3 or better ignore cover.
and with more drone then guys grav only works on a 4+ since the drones have that save.

I wonder how that’ll work with flame weapons… As they don’t roll to hit and have ignore cover as an added bonus to being a flamer but aren’t stated as ignore cover. It’d keep them from ever getting targeted by a Typhon though, you can bet on that one, lol. Against anything blast ignore cover that’s as hateful as regular invisibility.

the rule isnt, if you have ignore cover. Its if you target them in the shooting phase they are make a unit targeting them snap shot against them.
sorry i said it weird as in "oh you going to target me with ignore cover eh."
but yes, its like well do i fire the typhon at them or not. if you do then they will make you snap shot and it wont work. but if i dont then they will still have it for later.
or make them waist it on other things then the typhon instant kills them. i think it will be very tactical.

That's a good point.
Also yes what does "fire team" mean so many questions.

Can we start guessing on cost? It's designated as smaller than a riptide, so I'm thinking 80-90$

nice protection against vindicators as well given the T5 is prone to the daemonprince instagib problem...
seems like a nice fluffy riptide alternative for a stealth style list. Nine seems fun...lol
I bet it's about 90$

Rumours I have seen was 90.
I would like three with all fusion. 420 points base plus upgrades. Maybe fnp. If it's the codex still.
There is also a Cadre pack on GW with 3 hammerheads with railguns and a sky ray.
Not sure if that will be a formation or a squad you can take in the new codex.
Imagen rail guns with sky fire.

Someone speculated that fire team will let an ic join the unit even though there is a mc in the unit.
I'm not sure. From the pics it may not say in the white dwarf. So we may have to wait until the codex to find out
