It's actually 140pts for a squad of 6 with missile launchers. Still pretty cheap though.

And split fire is a handy ability, but it doesn't get used all that much. Long Fangs are a high-priority target, and the first casualty they suffer should always be the Squad Leader.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3168816.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3168816.page GMT Re:would this work?Long fangs MCs.

In practice, Long Fangs are the usual primary antitank and anti-MC tool for Space Wolves, and missile launchers give them an excellent and inexpensive way to kill those targets. they also give the option to Frag the crud out of bunched-up infantry units, such as ones in the crater of an Exploded transport.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3169744.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3169744.page GMT would this work?Long fangs

Ok fair point.







And that's if there is a crater and they all fit.Missile launchers are what's known as a jack of all trades but master of none.There are more powerful AT weapons,and better anti-infantry.But they are cheap and reliable.When I can't pick a weapon,it's the ML that has my back.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3169925.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3169925.page GMT would this work?Long fangs OP trolling?

10 man dev squad with 4 Heavy Weapons split into two combat squads is better than 6 Long fangs with 5 heavy weapons and a squad leader?

The only advantage the devs have is having more bodies (but at a price!)

Split a ten man unit into combat squads,2 AT weapons in 1,2 anti-infantry in the other.The can split fire like LF,but the differences are
1)In order to get a kill point,your opponent must kill all 10,make both squads fall back and end the game or make them end off board.
)They can be deployed in 2 different positions with diiferent fields of vision
3)The sergeant can make 1 guy +1BS instead of shooting.Give him a bolt pistol and PW and he can be a back-up close combat item for facing outflankers and deepstrikers.


The LF are superior in terms of points and can take an extra heavy weapon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3173792.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3173792.page GMT Re:would this work?Long fangs

While all of these things do improve the relative strength of the 10 man Dev squad as compared to Long Fangs, the critical difference is that 6 Long Fangs with 5 Missile Launchers costs 140, while 10 (Vanilla) Devs with 4 weapons cost at least 220, and has one less heavy weapon. Unless points are truely not scare relative to FOC slots, the Long Fangs are a far superior unit. The tactical advantages enjoyed by the Dev squad cannot possibly be worth 80 points against all-comers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174079.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174079.page GMT would this work?Long fangs ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174102.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174102.page GMT Re:would this work?Long fangs

Each combat squad is worth a kill point.

Also, as someone else pointed out, you could almost get two squads of long fangs with 5 missile launchers for the price of one 10 man squad of devastators. Heck, if you made the squads identical, IE, 5 long fangs with 2 missiles and 5 more long fangs with two missiles, you could have the exact same thing as the devastators, and be able to fire at 4 targets vs 2.

Seriously, you are trolling.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174183.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174183.page GMT Re:would this work?Long fangs
He just doesn't appear to understand that normal devastators are distinctly average, and giving them the extra bodies makes them worse. (as they become more expensive for no real gain).

Oh, and that he does not understand that Long Fangs are one of the best units in the game. ridiculously cheap, and can split fire. What more do you want really.

And yeah if combat squadding didn't give extra kill points it would be completely broken.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174223.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174223.page GMT Re:would this work?Long fangs KP?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174865.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/387937/3174865.page GMT Re:would this work?Long fangs

And yes, superior very much in points and how many missiles i can bring to the table for so few points. I think I might take some Typhoons too to help out with that
