So, uh, is GamesWorkshop or forgeworld ever going to make the pieces needed for the missing vehicle/battlesuit gear?

Let me rephrase that:
Is there a representable piece for each support system?

So what's missing? Target Lock and Targeting Array use the same bit, same with the Drone Controller and Multi-tracker. The Positional Relay, Command and Control Node, CIB and AFP are in the Commander box. So.. Vectored Thrusters and Stabilization Systems?

Oh? The Targeting array is same as Target lock and DC and MT are the same. I never knew that. I guess that's the answer I was looking for. I believe that the Broadsides have a** (Advanced stabilization system. I didn't realize what I spelled until I read it over)
The only non-represented piece is the vectored retro thrusters.

I saw/read it somewhere on conversions used to convey the wargear visually, they didn't look that great in my opinion.

I saw that on the GW website. The conversions were ok, not the greatest.

No, their almost totally useless, and them being FW models, I can't use them freely in any game other then apocalypse.

See, I really wish people would stop spreading that particular untruth. Forgeworld is a part of GW, and their models and rules are completely official. By courtesy to your opponent, you should let them know your using Forgeworld stuff, but they can't refuse to play on the the grounds that it's 'unofficial.' The only FW things you can't use in regular games are superheavies. Frankly, if you've shelled out the cash for the Imperial Armor books & Forgeworld models, I have no problem with you using those units.

rl cash is most obvious obstacle for getting IA stuff from FW

Does a Tiger Shark count as a super heavy?
I plan on buying on and using it soon, so long as it is allowed.

That's the one with the twin railheads right? I think it does count as a super heavy.

Damn. I have to check that out. If not, i'm SO getting it. If so, then what about the baracudda?
That's a lot smaller. I wouldn't think that it's a super heavy.

Barracuda is a Heavy, Tigershark is a Superheavy last I checked. However, while Forgeworld models and rules may be legit, better make sure you have the actual rulebook with you. Also, despite the fact that Forgeworld okay to field, you might run into people grumbling about the fact that you have a flier in your list. Fliers can be impossible to deal with for some armies, and the attack run rules are alot harder on your opponents than Apocalypse's flier rules.
