Emperors Immortals Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 The listing seems to suggest its only for full Ecto builds, that is the head ecto is only available as an upgrade to teh dual ecto loadout. So, can I take an ecto headed dakka fiend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, can I take an ecto headed dakka fiend? Thats my understanding. Tactically, I don't think its a good idea with the difference in range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 The listing says Options May take additional Ecto So I would go with yes, it is plausible. Whether or not it is suggested, well try it out and let us know how it goes. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastor Krieg Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 "Additional" would mean you have to have "primary", "regular" ecto first, to take "more" ("additional", "in addition to previous ecto"). I would say nope, you can't mix those two weapons. That's an expansion for a plasmafiend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev. Tiberius Jackhammer Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 If you check p.86 of the 'dex, it showcases a Hades Autocannon Forgefiend with an Ectoplas mouth, so it looks like the designers at least intended for it to be possible.

This guy's not wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonah Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 It's not a terrible idea, you can use it to pop transports early in the game then start destroying troops in the mid-late game. The Hades Cannon is a pretty good gun to shoot at Paladins and the like because it doubles them out. It's nice to hand your opponent dices saying "These ones ignore your armour, and these ones will double you out..." :cuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurglez Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 My basic config is the twin hades, and if I can spare 25 points then I go for the plasma head. While the ranges don't mesh as well, the str does :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
