Cheers bro...make me better! <br /><br />@Chumb - I know that by removing the versatility of the unit I can strip it to 195 points, saving enough for a SHP to ride in a Razorback giving FNP to most of my troops... but how much does the HG squad lose in terms of its effectiveness due to only having 3 meltas? <br /><br />@TKE - How/what would you come to differently? Conclusion, unit set up? <br /><br />I'm really appreciating the community support guys, cheers.Venerable Brotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07216367267460059729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742113396089797587.post-43022598258901942992010-04-12T01:02:52.927+01:002010-04-12T01:02:52.927+01:00I like that analysis - and I agree with the conclu...I like that analysis - and I agree with the conclusion, even if I would come at a bit differently.TheKing Elessarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04981821487098781957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742113396089797587.post-88599025654764498512010-04-11T19:44:19.759+01:002010-04-11T19:44:19.759+01:00I like HG more as SHP and melta platforms, they...I like HG more as SHP and melta platforms, they're pretty cheap when kitted minimally.Chumbalayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15543857960730597490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742113396089797587.post-87828319104382472052010-04-11T19:09:41.969+01:002010-04-11T19:09:41.969+01:00Another point with regards to mobility.

HG will have 18", so you have the option of assaulting a more appropriate foe.<br /><br />Mobility inside and outside of the transport needs to be considered, especially when not in an assault vehicle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
