Default Re: Heavy Weapons to Squad Size - Opinions?

Thanks for the feedback, it's good to hear others views on the matter.

As I said I can see the purpose of combat squads (this isn't a rant against them by any means) and that they are incredibly good - I recently 5th'ed (combination of educated guessing/predictions) my Marine list to see what it would look like and it is alot better from a gaming point of view to the current 'dream' list, but alot more generic. I just, and still don't, see why it was necissary to implement the rule for heavy weapons/squad size (then again I never really faced 'cheese' lists that exploited it to the extent of those yu guys describe) and even from a fluff approach it doesn't work. I don't know, I'll wait 'till 5th and decide what to do then (as my 5th list is so similar to the 'dream' list marines may be back on the cards for my return army)
