what do you guys think are the best options for loading out your vypers.
Personally with the BS3 i would usually ruleout 1 shot weapons. My preference would be to go with either dual shuriken cannons or scatterlaser. These both cost the same and are pretty cheap. The first can blitz out from behind cover to blast away at the enemy and hopefully not be too tempting a target to shoot back at. If they do shoot it then at least its not your aspects being shot up.
If you go with the scatterlaser then its all about keeping out of the 24 range of bolters etc so you can annoying the enemy whilst hopefully not taking too much fire in return.
The first i think works better in a serpent/falcon rush army, whilst the second works in a more traditional eldar force.
The third option for me would be to take 2 with Starcannon. Although its been nerfed since 3rd it can still be worth having a few starcannons on the table in case termies, oblits, Mc's turn up. taking 2 means you should get a couple of hits when you need too and they are worth guiding if the oppertunity arises.
