Building up 6 black knights for use alongside my DW knights (+IC) in a landraider, a bit of greenwing and a venerable dreadnaught.

My question is, is it worth it to make a grenade launcher biker?

I would assume use the stasis bomb for -1WS and I then go in with the DW knights or just attach with the black knights themselves


in your experience playing, is it worth it to sacrifice the longer range plasma for that debuff chance and other goodness from grenade launchers


thank you

Yes, worth it if you go against WS4 or WS3. The latter makes you hit on 3's, the latter makes them hit back on 5's.

Thanks for that. I searched for it just to make sure i didnt do a similar topic but alas...

The way they described it so if i hit just one unit on the edges due to scatter etc then the WHOLE UNIT has -1ws and -1 I?

Has anyone used then effectively and have a firsthand experience to share?

Yep that's right, just got to hit 'em.

I've used RW, and had them used on me. What was posted up in the other thread was spot on, you really only need one launcher per BK squad. They are too valuable to leave beind though.

Awesome so i just have to hit a model with the blast and the whole unit gets it.

Thanks
