Primaris Aggressors

[crimsonhand]

Has anyone used the Aggressors? 
I was looking them over and I'm just not sure on their abilities, if they are worth it over say Centurions 

[Bremon]

I haven't used them but have read enough favourable reviews of the dakka version that I'd like to buy some. The flamer ones seem like a one trick pony. Centurions are a non-starter for me so I'd think Aggressors are much more economical/efficient.

I haven't used a lot of the new Primaris stuff yet. I bought the Dark Imperium starter and I am slowly working my way through painting that before I add anything else.

We already had a thread about it. Nothing has changed since then. It pains me to admit, but they are garbage. For aggressive play, Assault Cents are generally better. For shooty play, Aggressors win. I wouldn't run either, as multi-damage weapons are common and you pay too much for these models. A singke Hemlock or Reaper unit will delete them, same as Plasma or Aurocannons. It also does not help that Aggressors are so squishy. They are also a bit anti-synergetic. You pay for Fists and Bolters. They csn run and shoot without penalty and have a short range, but need to stand still for better shooting.

 

In short, as with the whole Primaris release, GW done goofed. This is not me hating Primaris though, I still play them. Just criticising GW for very poor rules.
