i use it for the melta-team. sister superior, 1 normal sister, 4 sisters with melta guns. immolator w/extra armour, smoke, and twin linked multi-melta's. get em within 6'' and any gun line is an instant slag heap.
you can also use the same setup but with 4 flamers in the squad and a twin linked heavy flamer on the immolator.
if you have retributors, they are also good to use with an immolator transport. that keeps you from using a heavy weapons slot and gives your heavy weapons troopers a taxi. 5 heavy bolters, 1 twin linked, is enough to ruin anyones day. |
How does the immolator on Retributors keep them from being heavy support?
Also, if you take retributors, an immolator really is a no-no. You've only got 1 meat bag in the mix (2 if you sacrifice the superior first like a dolt) before your heavy weapons are being ate into. If you really must give them a transport, do yourself a favor and make it a rhino. Otherwise, the retributor squad will go up in flames quickly.
Besides, you paid precious points on those heavy weapons.. why leave them so open to enemy fire?
