i think the fun of using deamonhosts is the unreliability and randomness that they have.
stormtroopers are definatly kinda useless without special weapons. i like them with meltaguns or grenade launchers.
a heavy weapon platoon with lascannons might actually be cheaper than sentinals. not sure. |
well, inducted guard can't take heavy weapon platoons sadly, so sentinels and/or platoon command squads are the only option for the anti-tank guns...
i personally prefer plasmas or meltas on storm troopers as those are the real 'urty guns that benifit the most from the stormies better BS.
also, plasma guns aren't quite as risky to use as you have a 50/50 chance of surviving any over-heating mishaps!
as for the deathcults, they're great when you slap all 3 into the same squad at once! that's a total of 12 power weapon attacks on the charge - hopefully enough to deal with smaller meq squads like devastators or command squads... (just avoid base-to-base contact with the IC leading it!)
cheers!
