Can anyone advise how good, if at all, grav cannon devastators are at the anti-vehicle role?

As Martel said, SHV really don't care too much about them since they can't be Immobilized.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8676785.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8676785.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8676787.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8676787.page GMT dev squad in a pod with a Caperact TDA captain to give them S&P. If you are playing something like a gladius where you need the captain and devs anyway.

Captain can help tank wounds as well. Grav cannon devs are probably as expensive as you can get for a 1W PA model.

(Practically anyway. I’m sure you could hemorrhage more points if you put your mind to it just to make an example)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8676794.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8676794.page GMT
FYI I use them as an area denial tool from behind an Aegis. They sit there and dare you to approach my deployment zone. If I really get desperate they'll move up but I've found them to be happiest playing Goalie near any objectives on my side of the board. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8679034.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/691963/8679034.page GMT
I know that it might seem like an odd idea, but I only put one grav cannon in my 5-man, rhino mounted units. That way, each grav cannon is individually protected by 3 hull points and 4 ablative wounds. In a battle company, with 6 tactical squads and 2 devastators, that's a viable strategy (for me, only 5-6 of those will get the single cannon). Less practical without all the free rhinos. But when they're all spread out, it works great at mitigating the impact of incoming damage on your ability to do damage.
