They also make a awesome laser dot sight for a bolt gun or some other manly weapon. I use on on my marines all the time. Or as a tracer round for bigger guns to shoot at.

*clicks fingers* so thats what they're for, targeting for their tanks. Wonder why they need so many for that?

You get a reroll to hit ,by every 50th lasgun on target?

You need several tanks of las guns to get a re roll. But they would be useful for painting targets with fire.

Victims may get paranoia when Tau markerlight is on them. Realize what massive imperial markerlight does!

I've got it! Lasguns are a terror weapon. Think about it, laser dot sights are usually suck to really big and nasty guns, so they see all the guard firing laser dots at them they may think that they actually have alot more biggger guns and that if they take aim the lasgun (now believed by the enemy to be the marker for a large and nasty bolter or something) makes them run off before they get fired upon.

Yeah, win by scare everyone only ld-test matters

Yeah, with every 10 lasguns it's minus 1 to your Ld.

So if a whole army aims at you, thet means *Counts on fingers* a -100 ld test... anyone can pass that!

Your mighty army got a ld value over +100 ?
Or Hoping that a negative roll turns positive because you use a computer to add/substract and your
opponent misses what you type in ?




I think, anyone forced to this ld test will pass the border of the game-table with his army.

Of course in order to take a Ld test you must lose 25% of your men due to shooting. It may not work unless they be grots because the lasgun wounds them on 3+....

in my nefuws hands that wood be a killing weapon never saw any one trow that many 5-6's and he was jusing my dise ( de kid is 10 and beats mee in macragge )

That happens. With My Daemon Prince i rolled 4 1's for its armour save, from ork shootas.

Dark Crusade-Kill a Marine Squad before they reach me.

Good one... maybe if they had the backup of a baneblade. IG can't do over 4,000 damage before marines (who have a longer range) reach them.
Abnett exaggerates in his novels... sif a lasgun can take down a dreadnought. Orks I can understand, as they have crap-all armour.

I did once read about a las gun blowing off a marines arm, i cant remember which novel however.... They are stupidly over powered in the novels.

One of these days they'll be taking down Titans and the Chaos Gods...

Titan got damage already from the biggest brother of the lasgun :
MLC 96",TK,ap 2,heavy3,blast,macroweapon.


Hey you just revealed the greatest secret of all: The chaos gods will get shot down by
lasguns at their last day.

Lasguns give off light, which is the enemy of dark, dark is generally evil. So it could happen!

I just like the idea of the Guardsmen not wetting themselves and running away for long enough to actually shoot the Chaos Gods

If you see the good the raw might turns you into a lump of jelly or something.

Would be more powerful than a lasgun, so it'd be ok in the end

Or if your blind, then you cant see it.

Guard didn't "run away",they regroup.

The future is bright,when every guardsmen uses syncron his "markerlight".

Not if they are under half strength they dont.

Who not "regroups" get shot by the "man in black".

Yes but the Man in Black will not notice the squad run away behind him, he will still face the great enemy.

His only purpose is duty and to call in the morale of the IG hes attached.He never forgets any "runners behind".

Yes he will hunt them down, unless the Catachan get him first.

You suggest accidents:

He stumbled and fell in his sabre/ walked straight over this mine/ throw himself into this bullet to save us/ and such?

Aye things like that, his las pistol was out of ammo and that guant was really close to his head, it was too late we are all really upset, arnt we men?
