but they cause pinning and always wound stuff on a 4+ or better...
still, you cant always plump for scouts with shotguns as a cheap infiltrating unit. assault 2 weapons are godly in such small games - even S3 weapons. plus, you can still charge into combat.
the big selling point of scouts is that they come with infiltrate! so 5 scouts even with just bolt pistols & ccw's will only set you back 65 pts. the same number of tactical marines will cost you 90 pts... those 25 pts can mean alot in such small games!
cheers!
