Chengar Qordath Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 If he's riding in a stormraven then the assault cannon is a better choice; the autocannon is more suited to sitting in the back of the field and firing at long range.

Aidoneus Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I'll echo that the 2x psy-autocannon (psifileman) version is the best you can get when sitting back at range and acting as fire support. If, on the other hand, you're planning to hitch a ride on a storm raven, you absolutely want one arm to be a Doomfist. Dreadnoughts make very good support CC units, especially if they're on the front lines anyway. To go along with the shorter range, I think the psycannon (i.e. assault cannon with psybolts) is the better option. That's because, when range isn't a factor, you're essentially trading 1 strength and twin-linking for 2 extra shots and rending, which I think is a good deal.

adamv6 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I have used a VenDread with Assault Cannon in my last 3 games, and with the addition of PsyBolts, he is also a half decent armour popper. He has taken out 2 rhinos, a Sentinel and Dreadnought. I am still not sure about the 2nd weapon, and have used a missile launcher twice and a doomfist once. Neither so far have given me much advantage.
