Multi-laser VS Heavy Bolter? (40K)

Post by Aaron »

So for you other Guard players out there, how did you choose whether to equip your Chimera with either the turret multi-laser or turret HB?

I'm looking at the stats:

Multi-laser: Range 36" S 6 AP 6 Heavy 3

Heavy Bolter: Range 36" S 5 AP 4 Heavy 3

Seems that the HB would be a better choice because of the AP. Am I missing something?

Aye, the bolter wins out for me.

Pretty much. The multi-laser rocks in DH, but not so much in the boardgame.

For TT, you want the Heavy Bolter. For DH, you want the Multi-laser.
