MANz are ded killy, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. But either run them in a small unit of 3-4 as a coterie for your Warboss, or run multiple 10 MANz units- and always put them in a Wagon. If the wagon gets wrecked or destroyed, try and get them into terrain, since they basically ignore it. They can be faster than you'd think, rolling 2d6 and taking the highest, with Run, Consolidate and Assault moves. But use them as a hammer, concetrating on empty vehicles and non-powerweapon units first, because they'll wreck those.

If you could bear to give up your Boss or your Big Mek, try getting Grotsnik and giving them Cybork. Then you basically have a bunch of Paladins running around.

I'm afraid Rubicant's got it right on this one, King. You can only diversify up to 3 MANz- they only have two options for Kombi-weapons. If only you could buy a Big Shoota for them, though...
