marvmoogy Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hi all, I'm wondering how to model my mini's and hoping you can help! :) I'm building up the 3rd company and have built up 3 of the 6 tactical squads as follows: 1) Missile launcher, flamer. Sergeant with bolt pistol and chainsword. 2) Plasma cannon, plasma gun. Sergeant with plasma pistol and power weapon. 3) Plasma cannon, plasma gun. Sergeant with plasma pistol and chainsword. I'm building another 2 squads tonight, one of which is partially made up. 4) Lascannon. Sergeant with power sword and plasma pistol. The question is - what special weapon would you put in the lascannon squad and for the fifth squad, which heavy weapon / special weapon / sergeant wargear would you use? Cheers all!

Avon Rekaes Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I would put a Plasma Gun in the Las squad. Another loadout could be Heavy Bolter, Flamer, and Sgt with plasma pistol and power sword, for maximum efficiency against hoards.

tomsev Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 surely the sarg for anti horde would be either just a combi flamer or combi flamer lightning claw for rerolling wounds...

cypherthefallenangel Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I have changed most of my tac's sgt. weapons to combis. Also missile launchers are a good multi purpose heavy weapon. Frags for hordes, krack for vehicles(and bikes), and flaks for fliers. Also take some meltas you seem to have enough plasma.

march10k Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I have a ML/Flamer one, a MM/M one, and four plas/plas ones...and a dozen assorted sergeants...it seems like the only squads that ever hit the table are plas/plas, and the sergeants are almost always boltpistol and power sword. So...I'd recommend plasma cannon, plasma gun, and power sword with bolt pistol. Or maybe a combi-plas on the sergeant, paired with a powerfist or lightning claw...but that's expensive! My plas/plas/PW squad is 185 points, down a good 20 points since last codex!

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I'm rebuilding my power armour army. That said, my setup will be roughly: Rhino squads: Sgt with combi flamer/melta, melta/flamer, missile. This mean if the squad has melta the sgt will have combiflamer and vice versa. Jack of all trades so to speak. Footslogging squads: sgt with combi plasma, plasmagun, missile. Since I go for combi's, melee weapons will not be used to keep things as cheap as possible. Just my 2 cents. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272828-greenwing-wargear/#findComment-3329036 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Sheol Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 i am building the 5th company and the loadout of the tactical squads is... 1st + 2nd - ML PG sgt with PP/CS (multi porpouse) 3rd - LC PG sgt with CS/CP (LR AT) 2nd - MM M sgt with CS/PP/MB (fast AT on rhino) 4th - ML F vet sgt with LC/CF (to split in two CS, one to be CC oriented and the second one to be shooty) 6th - HPG PG sgt with PP/CS (this is the one from DV and i want it cause it's fluffy) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272828-greenwing-wargear/#findComment-3329070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabbadoo Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I actually set up my squads based on the special weapons they have, as follows: T1: flamer; vet. sgt. w/power weapon; heavy bolter (alternate missile launcher) T2: flamer; vet. sgt. w/power weapon; heavy bolter (alternate missile launcher) T3: meltagun, vet. sgt. w/powerfist; multi-melta (alternate missile launcher) T4: meltagun, vet. sgt. w/powerfist; multi-melta (alternate missile launcher) T5: plasma gun, sgt. w/bolter; plasma cannon (alternate lascannon) T6: plasma gun, sgt. w/bolter; plasma cannon (alternate lascannon) I had so many extra marines and heavy weapons that I have alternates for the heavy weapons in both my Tactical Squads and Devastator Squads. Being able to mix and match is great. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272828-greenwing-wargear/#findComment-3329533 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJedi Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Any ideas for the Assault Squad Sergeant? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272828-greenwing-wargear/#findComment-3329614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Any ideas for the Assault Squad Sergeant? Combi weapon. Probably combi-flamer. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272828-greenwing-wargear/#findComment-3329662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Immolator Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Any ideas for the Assault Squad Sergeant? Combi weapon. Probably combi-flamer. Probably this, considering that the only use they see these days is as a torch squad.

march10k Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 ~shrug~ That's more use than they've seen in a long time...but I run my squad with no upgrades but a power sword in friendly matches...really fun unit, but not insanely competitive in WAAC-land.
