Hey so I have been working on a new kitbashed helbrute for my black legion csm army, and I know I want it to be melee focused as most of mu army is shooty, but Im not sure the best weapons to give it.

Currently I am considering doing a powerfist with a flamer built in, and a power scourge on the other hand, is this worth the points? Or am I better off with another loadout.

My one game with a proxy did well VS Eldar Howling Banshees but looking for something good for general melee combat to protect my bigger guns, or act as a distraction for my chain axe terminators.

Best distraction loadout is the most simple one. Fist and scourge. They cost 110, move fast enough to be a threat, and put out 6 fist attacks and 3 scourge attacks on the charge making them incredibly nasty. I dont even bother with guns on mine.

Good to know Im on the right track then
