So, I'm looking at the Nomad TAGs and ponders why they're priced as they are...
The Lizard can have (in addition to it's MULTI HMG) a Heavy Flamer for 88 points or a Heavy GL for 96 points.
For two points more than the Flamethrower version, the Szalamandra has +3 BTS and the Hyper-awesome magnetic cannon. To me this feels even better than the GL Lizard for 6 points less... why?
And then there's the Iguana. For 15 points less than the Flamethrower Lizard, and 17 points less than the Szalamandra, it comes with a MULTI HMG and a Heavy Flamethrower, one less wounds and two less in armor... but when it dies, it ejects a HMG-wielding HI... And as a bonus, it's also a repeater for your Hacker needs.

So... is it just me, or are the TAGs better the cheaper they become? I would prefer the Iguana over the other two any day, and the Szalamandra over the HGL Lizard. I don't even think I would ever pay for the HGL Lizard.
Or am I missing something that makes the expensiver TAGs worth it?
