Troop upgrades and weapons

[Exoskeleton]

Since IG are weak as hell I once lost almost all troops when some guy dropped that chaos thing on me....whats it called I forgot...that shit the Sorcerer has...his basic spell....and Ig died like flies.

[BMANN1019]

What, doombolt? Yes, ig are very weak, which is exactly why i have priests with the squads on the front line. I also shove commissars with the groups that have the launchers. With the Summary Execution ability, they start lobbing out grenades like hell, which keeps enemy troops pinned to the ground, while the front squad can deal out the majority of the damage. And if the front line starts getting attacked, i just use fanaticism to keep them alive.

Nice tactic ,Im not retarded.Who does not priests and commisars is ....well............insane ? Just dont forget that this tactic can be fucked up by any enemy artilery weapon.Basilisks do good,whirlwind especially,defilers so so.....and Fire Prisms pwn them.:lol::lol:I laughed my ass out.

[BMANN1019]

Oh, i know, but it's not like i wouldn't have my own tanks to deal with them. Oh, and here's an interesting question. For the HW team, what do you guys usually pick, las cannon or the auto gun?

And too screw the artillery, or any vehicle, just use Curse of the Machine Spirit, and they won't last long enough to do any serious damage.

before 1.2
actually a priest + harlequin could have killed a monolith together.
But not anymore, since the new curse only stops the units.

I pick las cannon for my HWTs.Everybody thinks they are good vs vehicles only but they do fair(ok) damage to inf too.Fast rate of fire is good.

[Dude in a box]

One of the best combinations to have on a marine squad is 2 flamers and 3 plasma, they have similar range and it works wonders against most infantry units, morale or not

Carefull, before 1.2, they did more dmg to infantry...

[chapter-master-ultrius]

grenade launchers, earth shaker cannon(on the bas),inferno cannon(on the hell hound) and the mighty bane for ig.

What ? Are you blind or retarded ? Grenade launchers do jack to everything except builders maybe.

STFU YOU NOOB !
