Two words: heavy flamers. You don't need to get close enough to assault, heavy flamers wound Fire Warriors on a 2+, and deny both their armor saves and any cover save they might get from huddling near their fish. Personally, Devilfish tactics have never really bothered me. When playing against Tau, what really gets under my skin are the damn move-shoot-move battlesuits. The only answer to them is taking something fast enough to chase them down. |
