Default Re: If used correctly, how good are the Arcos?

i've played a sister's army for 2 years. and i will stand by my arco's 100%. i personally find them to be a great CC addition to an army that is a little weak in that area. yes it sucks when you roll a six to move but, if you look at statistics it only really affects 1 out of 3 games. since with there movement you can usually have them engaged after the first extra move. there also great in my opinion since they have power attacks, great initiative and an awesome looking model. in the past i have had them kill terminator squads before they can strike and power armor squads hate them as well. course i'm also a big fan of the pentient engine for many of the same reasons. if you have a few points and need a CC unit the arco's are the way to go. sister repentia are also nice but they are guranteed to get 86'd before they do any real good. that's just my opinion.
