Default Re: how do you use your commissars

commissars, brilliant units in the fluff, and for 50pts not bad at all.
When i used to play guard i used my comissar in small games. say between 400pts and 1000pts. he came in really handy, in the smaller games i would attach him to an armoured fist squad, and give him a powerfist and the sgt of the sqd an honorifica imerpialis, yes i know its 25pts down the crapper the second i fail a LD check, but more often than not he passed, meaning, should i get into combat I'd have two fairly hard units in combat that could turn the tide with power weapons.
its a strat that dosent always work, but i enjoy using it, just because i find the image of the commissar shooting a guy with a honorifica funny.

If the Death company dreado had not contested in the turn 7, the game would have been a draw
