 P.E.'s = Dead terminators!
P.E.'s are pretty under rated but they do need a little practice to get the best out of them. Careful deployment is key as once the battle starts they become automonous charging headlong a the nearest enemy unit.
Firstly, they are NOT dreadnoughts. Toe to toe a dreadnought will tear them apart and your points will be wasted but they are very effective against the bane of a WH player, terminators.
When I use P.E.'s I'll band them together in a unit rather than field them independantly. This way you can incur a loss whilst covering the ground between your lines and your opponent's.
When they do engage they have the potential to wipe out units at a time, firstly from the heavy flamer fire and then from the potential attacks they can inflict during CC.
I like them although don't use them as often as I'd like these days mainly due to the fact I like fielding pure SoB armies but they can tip the balance in your favour when taking on tougher, stronger or heavier armoured opponents.
The Mini's are pretty good too with a lot of scope to customise and pose. |
