Plague Champion

[paraelix]

Trying to decide a load out for my dual Plasma Plague Marine squads. Previous editions I always run power fists, but now I'm thinking the best option would be to run either;

Bolter, Power Axe, Plague Knife Meltabombs or

Combi-Plas, Bolt Pistol, Plague Knife, Meltabombs

 

What are people's thoughts? 15pts for the combi option and 20 for the axe... And I'm equipping 3 squads...

Eh, I was going to go for fists or axes, but then I started to play and I realized just how annoying and frustrating forced challenges are. :/

Now my champs go naked.

I use a power axe and I haven't regretted it yet. high strength AP2 attacks, plus an additional attack. Not to mention, if you want to go first, you can always use your plague knife. So, I'd run combi-plas, power axe, plague knife.

For a plasma squad, a combi plasma is enough for me. If the squad is equipped with meltaguns, then a combi melta and a power weapon (axe most likely).

 

Combi weapons on champions are great vs MC characters, as they can get you a boon roll if you're lucky :)
