Halfpint100 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Yes you need a heavy bolter or a heavy flamer on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duz_ Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 From memory the kit only comes with a HB although the codex allows for heavy flamers too. You could magnetise it easy enough to switch as needed. Personally I prefer the HB as a cheap and cheery option Guardsman Bob 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicodemus Doloroso Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 In the old days my heavy flamer equipped Basilisk caught a few opponents off guard and caused much rage when a weapon destroyed was rolled and they thought the Basilisk was totally neutralized without it’s Earthshaker. Then it rolled up and cooked some tightly packed unawares infantry. It wouldn’t have the same shock effect now but could still work with a weakened bassie since damage would not impact the HF.

Withershadow Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Heavy flamers are too expensive for that. If it was an even swap for heavy bolters, then sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Yep, the heavy flamer is still a good hull weapon for Bassies but unfortunately not so much for the price tag. Shame I built mine before I started with magnets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
