You can get into range with the templet by either outflanking, or your scout move before turn one. The way i run my Baals is if I go first deploy and scout, go second outflank.

Also one thing the FSC has over the Assault cannon regardless of who your facing is you can hit more than 4 people, and you auto hit versus having to shot the twin linked AC.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1694469.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1694469.page GMT Baal pred
If you go with the Flamestorm, try to use the scout move if the terrain is favorable or if you are going first.

Yes, the Flamestorm can hit more than 4, but trust me, opponents spread out when that thing is near. Having the Azz Cannon twinlinked means you almost always hit with 4. And keep in mind that with Rending the Azz can penetrate armor 12 and the Flamestorm cannot.

Both are good, just depends on your opponent. Flamestorm can put some real fear into MEQ, particularly bikes, but Azz is probably the most flexibile.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1695244.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1695244.page GMT Baal pred AC turret is the best option.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1695541.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1695541.page GMT Baal pred

You can't use Flamestorm Cannons as side sponsons on a baal predator. Only as the main cannon itself.

I don't like the heavy flamers as side sponsons at all. I'd probably only ever run heavy bolters only because I can see myself having the opportunity to use them more often than I could if I was using a heavy flamer in it's place.

Unless of course I'm fighting against say, the green tide or a swarm of nids'.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1695872.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1695872.page GMT Baal pred I use them to give fire support.
They are perfect for this task, move 12'' and fire the assault cannon or move 6'' and shoot also the heavy bolters.
Flamers are too short ranged for my purposes.
What flamers can do can also be done by the Assault units. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1696879.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1696879.page GMT Baal pred
Lately I've been considering the Flamestorm Cannon/Sponson Heavy Bolters option but it serves a bit of a different role than I need for my current list. If I change the list up a bit then I might give them a shot.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1696940.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/301931/1696940.page GMT
