The Longstrike Crossbows seem to be a powerhouse in their own right coming in at a 24″ Range, 3+ To Wound, -2 Rend, and 2 Damage. There’s also ways to get an extra attack with these guys making them a formidable foe on the battlefield.

Raining death upon the enemy from afar, Vanguard-Raptors armed with longstrike crossbows are marksmen with few equals. Poised in well-chosen vantage points they wait with bolts loaded, reading the ebb and flow of battle until the perfect prey appears. When it comes their retribution is swift, loosing deadly missiles to despatch even the most resilient targets.

This multi-part plastic kit contains the parts necessary to assemble 3 Vanguard-Raptors with Longstrike Crossbows. One model can be assembled as a Raptor-Prime – this model features a unique shoulder pad and helmet crest sculpted with a raptor motif, and carries an Aetherwing on his arm.

Additionally, this kit makes 3 Aetherwings, and the Vanguard-Raptors can optionally be assembled with Hurricane Crossbows.

This kit contains 71 components, and is supplied with a transfer sheet and 3 Citadel 60x35mm Oval bases (for the Vanguard-Raptors with Longstrike Crossbows), 3 Citadel 40mm Round bases (for the Vanguard-Raptors with Hurricane Crossbows), and 3 Citadel 32mm Round bases (for the Aetherwings).
