Megalodon Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I've been using combi-flamers on my champs for the last 5 games I've played. I've found them to be a great utility! 2 melta shots and a flamer template just prior to an assault really helps swing the fight in your favor! Has any one been using combi-weapons on their champs?

walpurgisnacht Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Because I thought it was fluffy I gave my old Iron Warrior Champs combi-bolters to throw another round in shooting. Squad of 8 bolter csm backed up with heavy bolter and Champ included. lotsa shots=massacre...sometimes. Most folks waste points on champions because they can or want to eat up points. Yes, I concur that having 3 assault weapons to utilize in an aggressive action is bueno, muy bueno. Hope you also spent points on keeping that gilded warrior elite force safe to range of execution. Yes, that's right. Your minis will be strategically replaced in the carrying case, this is a given. Now the true query is thus:How much glory was accomplished? If your divine wind squad can eliminate more than they are worth, good show my good man. If not, well, I guess it is back to the sketch pad. Currently, I am guilty as charged of converting to BL cult and possessed. The must have for me is the PM champ with fist pointing :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166943-combi-weapon-champs/#findComment-1966699 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night Stalker Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Why not buy havocs and use 2xflamer 2xmeltagun instead ? In 5 man squad ? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166943-combi-weapon-champs/#findComment-1966764 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dràyhèn Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I agree with Jeske, never enough points for them. Otherwise I'd use. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166943-combi-weapon-champs/#findComment-1966856 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I run a havoc squad in a rhino. -4xflamers -1xcombi-flamer on the rhino -1xcombi-flamer with the champ Toasty! Against guard, orks, nids or anything else with a poor armor save, its awesome. Actually, not bad against power armor either.

Zhukov Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Dont use them here either, not enough points for it indeed. But even if I had enough points I would probably change my list so I dont have enough point after that.

Megalodon Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Thanks for the comments! I do understand the not having the points issue, I had to reconfigure my list slightly to fit them in.

CelestialSon Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I always pack the combi flamer. It's a small investment, and when it works, it really works.

Corpse. Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Combi-Melta and flamer always worked on my rhinos when I made use of them. Prime reason being that they tank shock where they want to go. Pushing models out of the way (and snuggling them together) then overshadow them with a teardrop.
