Grey hunter WGL loadout questions

Recommended Posts

I have been toying with different options for the WGLs in my grey hunters squads, and several other people on this forum keep suggesting the PF+meltabombs combo. I put this setup in my army list, but then started thinking, and I started wondering if PF+meltabombs is the best combo for WGLs. With the 5th ed rules about assaulting a vehicle, all hits are now on the rear armor in CC, so wouldn’t a powerfist just take care of that issue? I dont see the logic behind having both a powerfist and meltabombs, if this is a good option, could someone enlighten me as to why?

The bombs are great against LR's ect. I personally like running Power Weps + melta bombs occasionally or LCs and bombs depending on the squad makeup. But if you have someone in TDA just go straight to the CF (only 2 more pts than a fist +bombs).

If he's got a Powerfist or Thunderhammer, then he doesn't need the Meltabombs; the marginal advantage isn't worth the cost. If you give him a Power Weapon, however, and there are no other Power Fists in the unit, then you would maybe want Meltabombs to ensure that you have something that can deal with Dreadnoughts/Walkers in close combat.
