And most often, including in major tournaments, it's counted as a 4+.


And Meganobz have a couple other nice things, too, such as being able to Sweeping Advance, ride in any Orky vehicle, include Stikkbombz (useless in 5th, but really, really nice in 4th), and don't discount the twin-linked Shootas they've got. That's 2 re-rollable Str. 4 ap5 shots there. I think I actually may have killed more models with my 5 Meganobz shooting than with their Powerklaws.

And back to the topic {or at least a tangent therof} at hand, you shouldn't think of Meganobz as Terminator equivalents, but more like Grey Knight Paladins with fewer limitations in exchange for no invuln save.

They're basically 2 wound, 2+ armour, Powerfist and Storm Bolter, Str4, T4, WS4 beatsticks that aren't hindered by all the special rules of TDA. Granted, I think they should have had the option of a Painboy (and thus cybork and FnP) but it'd have to be more expensive than the equivalent on regular Nobz.

It's okay Insaniak, we all like you despite your obvious insanity.
