So I've been playing for some time now and I've tried plenty of company command squad load outs.

I know the usual one is x4 melta or plasma as this is what I usually do.

What other options are out there. I've been playing pretty fluffy lately so I've had the regimental banner and vox in the squad.
What should the other two guys be kitted with or should I leave them as expendable bodies.
The unit will probably be advancing up the board with a hoard of bodies followed by leman russes so a heavy weapon is out of the question.
Are there any relics anyone would consider? I usually just go with the wrath of cadia pistol.

All comments and suggestions are welcome!

I usually run a vox because i swear by them. In my CCS I am happy to run anything from 2 snipers, lascannon and a boltgun on the commander, or full meltas in chimera

If they're going to be in a Chimera the best tactic is usually to give 2 of them either plasma or melta and leave the other two as body shields since there's only 2 fire points on a Chimera anyways.

If you're set on kitting them out though, you could give the 2 remaining vets flamers so they can overwatch with them if the enemy charges your chimera. People forget all the time that you can overwatch out of fire points if a transport is charged. It's not an expensive use of points, but IMO there's better uses for those points.

Yea either way they will either advance in a chimera or ruck it up the board on foot with plenty of other bodies around.

My sit back ccs has a lascannon in it. I usually use that to try and pick certain big targets out with it.

I'm just trying to see what loadouts people go by for a ccs that's going to advance up the board.

I liked the relic that grants a preferred enemy bubble but I feel that as it doubles the ccs's value it will make them a big fee magnet.
