Okay, I have been thinking about doing a Greenwing list.  Wanted to take a Command squad and using a SoD with the squad replace their pistols with boltguns.  Then I noticed I can just give them all Storm Shields.  Does this mean they can have Boltguns and Storm Shields to be a firing line of 3+ INV?

 

If I can take them as a semi-hardened gun-line it would make a big difference in how I place people.  20 shots (non-moving) with near-terminator resilience is pretty amazing IMO.  If anyone has tried it I would love some input.

The problem is that even with storm shields they only have T4 and 1 W and will fall to massed fire, so you're just sinking more points into them and with banner they are not cheap.. I would probably only bother putting a couple of storm shields one on the banner itself.

Chepaest way to increase their survivality is to simply put them behind a Rhino. For 35 points you get 3HP before anyone can shoot your banner. With a little bit of luck it will get wrecked and not exploded and you will get a LoS blocker in the midfield which will help to protect your Command Squad. Rhino is very easy to destroy but at least you are don't sink 250 points into LR.
