Noctus Cornix Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 It could be if say you made a predator Destructor for pure anti-infantry fire but otherwise, no. Its really just not worth it.

Minsc Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 On dakka-preds (Autocannon, Heavy Bolters, Havoc Launcher and possibly a combi-bolter) it's worth it. On other tanks? No, not so much.

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Possibly on a vindicator? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264589-warpflame-gargoyles/#findComment-3224028 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minsc Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Possibly on a vindicator? Will usually fire on something where Soul Blaze rarely/won't matter.

--eFTy--> Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 May be worth it on the defiler, IF you have the 5 points to spare. But often there'll be something else more useful in a list, like a pintle bolter on the lascannon predators, or meltabombs on bike/raptor champion etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264589-warpflame-gargoyles/#findComment-3224484 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zyl- Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 No matter how much dakka, you can still only place 1 marker on 1 unit per turn with any given unit since we can't split fire. I would say that if you have 5 extra points it'll likely get you a few kills, but as others have said, there are better options.

techsoldaten Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I have taken it on Rhinos with Havoc Launchers in 2 games now. I could go either way with it, the Soul Blaze killed a couple SMs but did nothing against Tau. Mechanically, it's d3 additional bolter shots that ignore cover until it extinguishes. I wounded one Salamander and his unit took 2 more wounds over the next 2 rounds. There were other shots that hit other units without doing anything.

Killax Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Not worth it. Use that extra points on more Meltabombs and Flamers. Cheers, Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264589-warpflame-gargoyles/#findComment-3224726 Share on other sites More sharing options...
