Scouts with sniper rifles

Recommended Posts

I haven't really been a part of this for a few years, but my friend just bought me some scouts with sniper rifles and some paints as a surprise.

 

Are they of any worth/use? Or should I exchange them for something else? Because if I remember rightly, I would never have bought them myself when I had my army before.

 

Does anybody else use them?

 

Thanks :D

I think they have their uses - particularly if you want a cheap scoring unit to fill in some leftover points (90 points).

 

I feel they are a bit more effective and flexible than a 5 man tactical squad for sitting on an objective, particularly if you can get them in cover with camo cloaks for a 3+ coversave.

 

Sit them behind an aegis defence line with a quad gun and missile launcher and you have a very annoying unit.

 

PInning is also a very strong ability in 6th edition giving the shooting meta
