| Theoretically for me the bastion is a chance for mandrakes to hang out (and thus create a suitably shadowy/daemony piece of terrain) within 12" of my deployment zone. This means that my haemie raider can scoot up, drop off the WWP Haemie who can walk up and join the bastion - provide the pain token (for baleblasts) and open the WWP (it starts in base contact with the building doesn't it?) operate one of the guns. The unit now has 2+ cover/5++ and FnP and units arriving from the WWP should have a little bit of cover by walking behind the bastion - having a talos or 2 nearby should put off certain enemy units from trying to assault that building now...  Alternatively a defense line will do the same thing to a lesser effect and if you were to take a Hamie Ancient (probably not worth it IMHO) then you can operate those guns with BS5 and hit on a 2+ | |
