Guardian heavy weapons

Hello all,

I have recantly had a disscussion/argument with a Gw staff member about Guardian heavy weapon platforms, i think they are good and add a much needed boost in fire power to the squads but this guy in Gw said the complete oppopsite.

I quote "they rubbish and to expensive for what they do, they cant even embark in Wave serpants". Is he wrong? or do some of you budding players out there agree? I on the other hand do not think they are to expensive and with the option to embark transports along with the squad, i think they make for great objective sitters.

Your oppinions if you please.

The old Codex didn't allow embarked platforms, plus they were optional. New codex they are mandatory so they may embark.

Take Scatter Lasers. With BS of 3 you need a high rate of fire to actually achieve much with them.

My rule of thumb is:

Transport Dire Avengers
Footslog Guardians

Well I run 40 of them with 4 Scatters Lasers and they took me to Ard Boyz 2nd round two years in a row. They are hard to beat for 95 points.
