Spikey Bits » It FLIES- New FW Kharybdis Assault Claw Rules
That’s right, the Kharybdis FLIES!
Forge World just released it’s experimental rules for the new Kharybdis Assault Claw, and once it lands it can become a flyer! Pretty neat rules that make it about the same points as a Land Raider, but it can carry 20 Space Marines (and fly)!
In all honesty, this is the most interesting kit I’ve seen Forge World make in a awhile.

Employed by many Legions as their primary ship-to-ship assault craft, the Kharybdis is a monstrous drop pod capable of carrying large assault forces through the void and mounting significant firepower to blast a path through defending small craft. As a fully operational dropship, Kharybdis assault claws also serve as orbit-to-surface transports, a role that allows them to use the firepower of their storm launchers and melta cutters to scour clean their chosen landing zone before disembarking their deadly cargo. Some aggressive commanders employ the Kharybdis as an effective tank hunter, ramming enemy armour in daring low-altitude attack runs. Complete multi-part resin kit designed by Will Hayes. This model is available to pre-order now and will be despatched from the 3rd of January.
