Re: [BTSS] Starting out

I sometimes use combi's on all Superiors. I haven't used multi-melta on Infantry. I don't have any models built. They are certainly better under 6th edition rules.

Heavy Flamers are expensive points-wise, but they are pretty good. It's a tough call to say whether they are worth it with the new list.

Unfortunately there isn't any cost effective way to do that these days, beyond lucking into a bid on ebay. You definitely need to get two ten girl squads of Battle Sisters (plus Rhinos, natch)Â and pair em up with your already painted up Living Saint, so you can test the army on the tabletop as you go.
