Well, S6 does mean we wound GEQ on a 2+ (with a re-roll) so with D6 autohits you could kit out 4 Trueborn or Scourges for anti-GEQ duty and expect them to kill ~10 GEQ per turn. I'm just really afraid that GW will think "A flamer with S6? Wow, this is powerful, better make it expensive". Which is why I am more in favour of S3 with re-rolling wounds and a cheaper price. I'm really not against S6, but realistically I don't think we would get that for a reasonable price. | |

| about the splinter cannon a quick and easy fix would be give AP-1 and D2. That would be a nice addition to any warrior unit. And, maybe, assault 3? we sorely lack d2 weapons. | |
