== Ætos Dios == [[File:Forgeworld-horus-heresy-imperial-fists-thunderhawk-aetos-dios-22.jpg|300px|right|thumb|[[Rogal Dorn|"Sorry Pert, my flying fortress has aerial superiority while your]] [[Baneblade#Tormentor|Tormentor]] [[Rogal Dorn|is a sitting duck. That's a fact!"]]]] Also known as the AEtos Dios because people can't type Æ. The ChÆtos Dioritos (named after one of the personifications of Zeus) is a modified Thunderhawk exclusive to the [[Imperial Fists]] [[Primarch]], [[Rogal Dorn]]. This flying rape-engine was first conceived following several [[Fail|failed]] attempts on Rogal Dorn's life following the outbreak of the [[Horus Heresy]]. Magos Telluria constructed for Dorn a unique, heavily-customized personal Thunderhawk gunship to both convey him in battle and to shield him as he conducted missions in the defense of Terra. It is quite befitting that Rogal would have his own personal jet plane fit for a Primarch to oppose [[Perturabo]]'s personal rolling bunker. It is also befitting that a Primarch's personal transport is the one big enough to carry three dreadnaughts, because we all know he wouldn't fit inside a [[Stormraven]]. The Ætos Dios differs from the bog-standard Thunderhawk, by being equipped with a Turbo-Laser instead of the [[Thunderhawk Cannon]] and a single Titan Void Shield. [[Awesome|Making it a flying Titan.]] In terms of tabletop the Ætos Dios is usable in games of 3000+ points as a dedicated transport. It has the IWND special rule and a 4+ invulnerable save against all missile attacks. It's also CHEAPER than a Thunderhawk with the same equipment by more than 100 points despite having extra toys. It can ALSO carry 40 models rather than the standard 30.
