Why would you take Stealth Suits?

Crisis Suits?

Riptide Suits?



Isn't the Riptide superior to the other two? Am I wrong in saying that the only reason not to take a Riptide is because you don't have the points? or real money to get one, two or three?

They each fill different roles in the army. The Riptide is a solid choice, but crisis suits provide more diverse firepower and can be customized to fill gaps in the rest of your army. Stealth suits are relatively cheap, have the ability to outflank/infiltrate, and provide good anti-infantry firepower for late game objective denying in the enemy's backfield. Your elite choices need to be balanced against everything else your bringing.

Rip Tide: Long-range Str7 AP2 and str8-9 AP2 large blast weaponary. Line-holder.

Stealth Suits: Survivable suits, infiltrating support slots (I.e. position relay on back board edge).

Crisis: Equip weapons to suit taste & needs. Flexible in small or larger squads. Weapons Platform. Drone platform.
