Decimator worth it in a DG army

Greetings all plague bros.

 

I'm trying to decide whether or not to include a decimator in my list and which loadout I should take or works best. I'm loving now it has the helbrute keyword which helps a ton with DG.

 

I run pallid hard DG and run it as they are meant to be, lots of heavies

CC Decimator is great value for its point cost. It has an Invul Save (though no DR) and it’s Flamers do 2 damage.

The question is do you have other stuff to support it so that it doesn’t get focused on?

 

If ranged, the Helbrute (because of Fire Frenzy), Predators, Haulers or Crawlers would be better.

I was planning on using my own Decimater woth my Deathguard. I'm not sure about it either.

 

Originally I ordered it with dual Soul burner Petards. However before I even received the product, GW upped the cost of the Soulburner substantially. Now I just don't know.

 

But I tried one or two games with a close combat arm, and a soulburner to get those mortal wounds rolling. The problem I found is peole are so afraid of it, it gets a LOT of attention. I've never made it into CC with it. Maybe one turn of shooting, then dead.

 

It's also right about 200 points, so I really don't know if it's worth it. Hence it remains unpainted, and unclaimed by my Death Guard, nor my Red Corsairs. :(

Has anyone tried the c-beam cannon? They look pretty brutal. As you can’t move and fire them you may as well take 2 @150, with a lord near by for rerolls that is some serious long range hurt they can put out. And that is what Death Guard are lacking. Edited by DaisyDuke
