I have heard a lot of bad stuff about the destroyers but almost every time I use them they do great. What I do is have heavy and light destroyers on the flanks of my army and use the cover to move around then when I have good opening I take it. What is your opinion about them.

**Shake Zoola**

They arent as good as they used to be.

Losing a shot and switching from jetbikes to jump infantry hurt them alot. Now they are slower and not able to lay down as much firepower. That and the fact that they compete with scarabs and wraiths for slots.

I do like the fact you can hide heavies in with lights now though.

I think they got a role change. Why? They're now jump infantry. Jump infantry can deep strike. I see them as a unit that can deep strike in to take out static heavy weapon units, like Long Fangs and Lootas.

Because of the current RP mechanisms I think the key is bring them big. 5 regular Destroyers or 3 HDs and 2 Ds provide enough fire power to reliably take out there preferred target (whether it be a vehicle or MeQ), and are resilient enough to stick around deep into games.
