I have two CML's, both are not yet glued and I'm having trouble deciding whether to put them on two Termies with SB or on one TH/SS and give another to a SB Termie.

I guess this boils down to whether it's better for the CML to be placed with a SB for maximum firepower,

or

to place it with a TH/SS model so that Assault DW still pack a punch from a distance.

I run Termies in 3 ways (excluding Belial's 10-man DW unit)

5-Man Deathwing Terminators:

1. 1-2 TH/SS + SB + CML/AC
2. 5 TH/SS + CML or 4 TH/SS + AC
3. 4 SB + 1 Heavy weapon (usually either AC or CML)

Magnetizing is not an option, so please rule that out.

Thoughts, anyone?

Both model-wise and tactic-wise.

Option #2 with all TH/SS isn't bad either as it gives them a bit of firepower upon arrival. But considering it's a pure CC unit, once they get stuck in assault you're not firing the CML.

On a SB model you get to fire both weapons which is nice in terms of maximizing dakka.

Not sure why you're dead set against magnetizing since termies lend themselves very well to it, that would be your best option. Otherwise I'd say option 1 would probably be best and fits the fluff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7585518.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7585518.page GMT Quick question: Cyclone Missile Launchers SB+CML model, then.
And I'm against magnetizing 'cause I don't have the right tools for it.. Plus it's nearly impossible to get magnets the right size where I live.
Thank you very much, phoenix darkus!

And where exactly do you see that???

The only restriction from the faq is for a model to take dual LCs or TH/SS they must replace the SB/PF combo; which prevents the sergeant from taking a TH/SS or dual LCs.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7587209.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7587209.page GMT Quick question: Cyclone Missile Launchers

That's how they worded it? So does that mean it's impossible to have a 5-Man Squad TH/SS now?

As for the "not being able to TH/SS + CML", I highly doubt so... Taking that away from us seems a bit.. dickish. It's hard enough as it is for us to be at par with our more competitive Battle Brothers.
Taking the firepower out of our units will really take toll on our armies.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7587408.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7587408.page GMT Re:Quick question: Cyclone Missile Launchers DW sergeants with TH/SS. Anyone who disagrees is not worth your time.

As per the latest DA FAQ, a model with a TH/SS cannot take a Cyclone Missile Launcher.

Time to go to the opticians I think. Total fiction.

OP: personally I like to put my CML on a SB and CF guy. Make him the tool box of the squad.

Yeah, I guess I read that wrong - it has the effect of preventing the Sgt from taking a TH/SS. Which is totally bizarre, I don't why they would make that change (when I glanced through it, my first thought was that it was to get rid of the hammernator+cyclone missile launcher option).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7588201.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/635389/7588201.page GMT
