One Canoptek Scarab in a Swarm

In my last game I used sanguinary guard equipped with 5 infernus pistols. They were very effective at dispatching some very ugly armor (enemy was IG & orcs). But I'm now wondering if honor guard would have been a better choice, seeing as I could have more tank killer weaponry at a better price. Thoughts?

Stern Iron Priest with Thrall Bodyguard

This should probably go in tactics but while honour guard can make a tank buster squad with jump packs for cheaper then the mentioned sanguinary guard, they will not have the same ability to mow through units.

Definitely voting for the honour guard, they bring a priest with them and their melta has 6''/12'' range. Now the fact I would bring them with plasmaguns and use assault marines or right now attack bikes as the meltas is for another thread.

Dour Wolf Priest with Iron Wolf Amulet

If you're trying to take out armour, Honour Guard are the better option. Infernus Pistols are cool but have a seriously limited range, so the CC/armour trade-off makes it worthwhile if that's all you're looking for anyway.

Pistols? For shame, power fists are the way to go.
It's like having terminators who trade 5+ invul for jump pack.
What's not to love about that?
