Brother Pelle Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Hello Wolf Brothers! I had recently bought the Thunderwolf Cavalry and I had already build two of them (One with Thunderhammer and one with Storm Shield). Now I'm tried to decide if I should give the last one with plasma pistol (giving them ability to crack vehicle or units with +2 saves). But because I lack experienced playing with them, I want to check if is real good or bad idea to equip them with plasma pistols.

Wulfebane Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Both. It's situational and preference. Some people never leave home without 'em, etc. I personally only like plasma pistols on my ICs so they can take the occasional Precision Shot, but otherwise I find plasma pistols too expensive for the amount of times you'll use them. Especially with TWC, since ideally they're in melee 4 out of 5 turns. However, when in doubt, magnetize.

Squark Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Plasma Pistols? Blech. They only belong on characters, frankly. For AP 2, you'll want a powerfist instead.

Reichfaust Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I am definitely of two minds about Plasma on TWC. On the one hand, two wounds means you'll never kill yourself on the first failed Gets Hot roll. On the other hand, your T5 makes you harder to hurt than other MEQs, why give away wounds? I say give it a try and see what you think. On a single Thunderwolf it's probably not going to swing things one way or another too much, in all honesty.

Brother Pelle Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 Ok, I have finally decided to add plasma pistols. I know that single plasma pistol may not be very much, so I had planned add another TWC with plasma pistol to increase it firepower in the future.
