Exilyth Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Suppose you had 40 points leftover, which of the following would you rather take: a Locus 5 Acolytes with hand flamers a squad of 10 brood brothers and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) Acolytes. In range, they'll generate 17/18 hits, whereas the brood brothers are just 19 shots at rapid range, or 9/10 hits. And going forward, the acolytes are choppier in combat too (16 S4 hits against 12 S3 hits). The brood brothers bring more wounds, but I find that if people need to remove a squad of ten, they usually can anyway. And both can sit on objectives if necessary. Not used a locus yet, so can't comment there. Also, acolytes look more cultish, and are top models. This is all through the lens of my own Cult force, currently set up for a lot of Four-Armed Emperor ambushing shenanigans, so acolytes fit that better for me.
