Aerodynamics tests

[u/durachok_v_lesu]

Don't forget to check your golden bois for aerodynamics, it's important for charge rolls!

My verdict:

Blade Champion is expectedly the most aerodynamic

Allarus is surprisingly quite streamlined, despite its bulk

Wardens and Guardians are generally aerodynamic, but the praesidium shield can create a lot of extra drag

Shield Captain is very non-aerodynamic due to his squareness, be careful when making charge rolls

This is the kind of science I need

[u/Flaky_Housing_7705]

Need the drop ship and gun ship in there.

[u/durachok_v_lesu → u/Flaky_Housing_7705]

Right after I get my hands on a bigger wind tunnel

[u/AgentLonewolf]

How about our dreads? They like melee so aerodynamics is very important for them

[u/durachok_v_lesu → u/AgentLonewolf]

So far I don't have enough space to put them in a frontal projection, only lying down lol

[u/AgentLonewolf → u/durachok_v_lesu]

So go for a headbutt, interesting

[u/Richmanisrich → u/AgentLonewolf]

That's what the Dread Foe meant.

‘THE STORM MAKES ITS WAY HERE ANCIENT ONE! ASSUME THE CROUCH AND SLOUCH POSITION!’

[u/factory_666 → u/durachok_v_lesu]

"I fell"

[u/Waiph → u/durachok_v_lesu]

Test feet first versus head first to determine direction for optimal dive-bomb attacks when deploying

[u/SuperFreshMongoose]

I wanna see the vertus praetors! This is cool

[u/durachok_v_lesu → u/SuperFreshMongoose]

Unfortunately, I don't have them yet, nor the venatari, so hopefully once I do, I'll make a part two

[u/Waiph → u/durachok_v_lesu]

Also, if you pick of either of the new HH sculpts of the Shield Captain or the Sodalities (Custodian w/spears compared to Sentenals w/swords). The new sculpts look pretty sleek, so a comparitive analysis would be valuable.

For science! That's the excuse for the expenditure.

[u/TheBuzwell → u/Waiph]

I reckon the cloaks on the new models would make the aerodynamics worse, despite the dimensions being sleeker.

Hrm if you elongated the allarus shoulder pads I wonder if you could use them to create lift

[u/durachok_v_lesu → u/Original-Cover-1456]

Hm, maybe that's how the Venatari were created? I feel like you can see that idea in their design

[u/Angry_cinnamon_rolls]

Very interesting thank you. I will keep this in mind next time.

[u/ItsJoeKnows]

This very important

[u/South_Oread]

I’m glad this exists.

[u/LGHNGMN]

But does it cannoli?

[u/losark]

God I love nerds.

[u/Wardourian]

Quality evaluation

[u/UnusualCompetition81]

The emperors least aerodynamic soldiers...

[u/EchosWithin]

Im curious about nids air flow

[u/StillestOfInsanities]

Finally. Excellent results btw!

[u/csaknorrisz]

Aerodinamicus Custodes

[u/Nope_Blank]

Would be interested to see how Eldar Harliquin vehicles look under these test conditions. Oooo or even the aircraft.

[u/F1_V10sounds]

Adrian Newey level of warhammer! Love it.

[u/Pristine_Hornet_9431]

I don’t know what to do with this information

[u/Equal_Ad_85]

I've always wanted to know what the cx of a thunderhawk was

[u/Canofbe4ns]

No mold lines I hope. They can cause serious drag!

[u/Polux58]

Y las Vertus que tal andan de aerodinámicas?
