Trying to decide if taking grenade launchers is worth it over an extra plasma talon now that they no longer have -1 toughness option...any thoughts?

It can let the BK get their rending strikes in before standard marines and hit them easier on CC which is nice. With Sam it basically makes him I6 with an AP2 power sword which is sweet. But the loss of rad sucks a bunch. I'd only take it if you find yourself in combat a lot, that's where it shines.

I find im jinking them all the time now too so cant even use the blast option anyway. Might just keep it on one squad and the rest just take talons.

its a niche weapon that has its uses but nothing to truly write home about, id say no.
