He's not necessarily trolling, whitedragon.

He just doesn't appear to understand that normal devastators are distinctly average, and giving them the extra bodies makes them worse. (as they become more expensive for no real gain).

Oh, and that he does not understand that Long Fangs are one of the best units in the game. ridiculously cheap, and can split fire. What more do you want really.

And yeah if combat squadding didn't give extra kill points it would be completely broken.

Really?Combat Squads are 2 KP?

What would you use other than Long Fangs in a Space Wolves army to shoot at tanks and MCs?

Yeah that is a good question... I mean sure plasma and melta but you need to shoot at range o_O

uhhh... that leader is the least useful of them all. I'd rather lose the ability to split fire than lose a ML.

Split a ten man unit into combat squads,2 AT weapons in 1,2 anti-infantry in the other.The can split fire like LF,but the differences are
1)In order to get a kill point,your opponent must kill all 10,make both squads fall back and end the game or make them end off board.
)They can be deployed in 2 different positions with diiferent fields of vision
3)The sergeant can make 1 guy +1BS instead of shooting.Give him a bolt pistol and PW and he can be a back-up close combat item for facing outflankers and deepstrikers.


The LF are superior in terms of points and can take an extra heavy weapon.

!!! Oh no, a Space Marine Sarge with a power weapon! OH NO GUYS! My outflanking genestealers are coming up against a bunch of space marines, but they have a POWER WEAPON SARGE?!?!? oh, ! Run away! Run awaaaaaayyy!

And yes, superior very much in points and how many missiles i can bring to the table for so few points. I think I might take some Typhoons too to help out with that








hahahahaha Sarge with a powerweapon in a squad of devs... totally going to dissuade my outflanking CC troops, ahhhh thats a good one

lol your arguments about combat squading devs comes across rather poorly when you don't even know that combat squads are worth a KP each.

Longfangs are just superior imo, Most lists now are spamming AV 11-12 transports. Krak Missle spam eats them up, some thing with Monsterous critters, and they'll ignore most FNP

Essentially aim them at everything other than AV14
unless that's the only thing left to shoot at
