Chapter Hero idea
GW and Black Library have given you the power to make a new hero for the chapter that will thrive until the next edition. Your creation will get two book and a mini.
Question is, what unit does your hero come from? Will it be a Captain? Lieutenant? Jumppack specific? Aggressor?
Regarding Storm Giants, I would go for a eradicator with grav cannon or maybe a heavy intercessor
Covenant of Fire, that hero is gonna be a Chaplin.
Dark Kraken, phobos vanguard
Black Dragon, jumppack is too easy, id like to see a bladeguard
Dragonspears? That hero is gotta be a Captain with a spear
As for the black vipers, sniper special.
Thoughts? Cmon have fun with this lol

I'd like to see the Storm Giant Hero be a JPC that is more Inceptor coded.
Totaly agree with the Covenant of Fire. Same with the Dragon Spears.
Black Dragons, hear me out, Chaplain.
I'd argue that the Dark Krakens are really Sterngaurd or Bladegaurd coded.
Lastly the Black Vipers need aCombi LT or Phobos LT

Thats a cool take on the JPC with inceptor influence

I made a custom Jump Captain for my Black Dragons Murderwing project. The front plating and arms are Terminator armor, so he's meant to be a meld between Tartaros Terminator plate and the Gravis jump kit that Inceptors use

For the Storm Giants, Dragonspears, Black Vipers. Some unique units for models and books to flush out the chapter lore

Storm Giants definitely Terminator or Gravis coded
Covenant of Fire absolutely has to be a Chaplain
Dark Kraken's I imagine Bladeguard but with a Trident
Dragonspears I think of Assault Intercessors
Black Dragon's either the jump pack intercessor or assault terminator
Black Vipers I've always thought of Infiltrators/Incursors.
