Wow thanks for the quick reply. So Command Squads are best sat in a Chimera then to keep them safe? Haven't played with this army yet but bought stacks of stuff today and wondering how to kit them out etc to use as Allies first.


That's one way to do it. But having only one or two vehicles isn't great either unless most of your army is also meched up.

You can always hide the squad in the blob in a pseudo-blob, or just behind them, or behind terrain tossing out orders.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788854.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788854.page GMT Can a Platoon Command Squad join a Infantry Squad? PCS on a home objective off somewhere, or I give them 4 flamers and put them in a Flyer.

The latter tactic can be devastating, you can either drop them in front a rather annoying or squishy enemy unit like Pathfinders or Dark Reapers, and burn them to a crisp. 4 flamer templates generates aloooot of wounds, usually more than the opponent can save.

You can also put them on an objective far from your lines, hopefully in cover, and the flamers are great against assaults and can push off enemy scoring units.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788861.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788861.page GMT Can a Platoon Command Squad join a Infantry Squad? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788923.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788923.page GMT Can a Platoon Command Squad join a Infantry Squad? gtg a lot.

Well, I will point out that the Commissar does enhance the unit's leadership which is important for passing orders.

I do agree that generally the Priest is better, but the Commissar isn't useless.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788951.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788951.page GMT Can a Platoon Command Squad join a Infantry Squad? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788969.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593123/6788969.page GMT Can a Platoon Command Squad join a Infantry Squad?
