Stormwing formation info

Hey guys, today the Stormwing formation rules were released. Heres some of the info, courtesy of Natfka's blog. Info follows below:

 (source originally from Natfka's blog)

"Adeptus Astartes Storm Wing
The formation consists of 2 Storm Talons and a Storm Raven.

 

Data Lattice: As long as their is one storm talon alive, the formations Stormraven Gunship has the strafing special rule, which adds +1BS to shooting at ground targets, and adds pinning.
 

The next special rule, just allows the both Storm Talons to escort the Stormraven at the same time, resulting in one reserver roll, etc."

Might not seem that great for some of you out there, but the fact that this gives the ability to only roll ONE reserve roll to be able to bring 3 flyers to the table simultaneously is huge. That is alot to deal with target-wise in one turn, plus the stormraven gets the buff of BS5 against all ground targets, which while not huge, definitely means you won't be missing your shots much at all with all the twin linked the thing has. 

I'll definitely be bringing this formation to try out at least once. :)
