So for those that haven't seen the rules yet... click here.
I need some help trying to figure out the point to these guys.
Squad Donatus: Assuming that the frag cannon is around the same points as a plasma cannon, this 5 man squad is 10 points more expensive than a standard 5-man sternguard with the same wargear. These 10 points get you Stubborn on your vet Sergeant, precision shots on ONE boltgun, FNP on ONE guy, and 2 CCW on one guy.
Ortan Cassius: +5 points for special ammo in the bolt pistol.
Edryc Setorax: +1 point for Stealth. Otherwise he has Raven Guard tactics.
Antor Delassio: +1 point for absolutely nothing that I can see. BA tactics included.
Jensus Natorian: +5 points for special ammo in the bolt pistol.
Garran Barantar: The only Cheap purchase I can find. -15 points if you consider the master craft on both weapons, AND the fact that he gets a second gun. However, he has no special rules to FIRE both.
Jetek Suberei: +4 points for Special Issue Ammo on the bike's bolters, and a TeleHomer.
Kill Team Cassius: WHY. Why would anyone want a large unit where the bikes and jump packs are slowed down by the Terminator and Heavy Weapon? Is the rerollng 1s that important?
*note: Edryc, Antor, Garran, and Jetek are Characters, but NOT Independent Characters. Therefore, they're going to die fast outside of the Kill Team formation.
