But now you know, so you have something to look forward to in your next game. It will be some tasty surprise for your opponent (assuming they didn't already know you were doing it wrong) the first time you Jump-shoot-jump at 24".

Only real dissadvatage is getting the double rapid fire shots when something deep strikes next to you.

Any thoughts??
I'm not sure where you are coming from.

Twinlinked plasma, multitracker is 59pts.
Plasma, fusion, multitracker is 63pts.
Twinlinked plasma, fusion, hardwired multitracker is 81pts.
  • Twinlinked plasma kills the same number of W1 T4 2+ or worse models as a plasma, fusion, multi within 12".
  • It kills more outside 12".
  • Because it is cheaper, it is also still better again W1 T5 2+ or worse models.
  • The only time the plasma, fusion, multi is better is when you shoot at vehicles, when you shoot at T4 W2+ models, and when you shoot at T6+.

Even though the twinlinked plasma, fusion, hardwired multi costs the most, it also kills the most for its points. It is best on a commander for the IC benefit (and the fact that it is 15pts for an extra BS that makes him kill even more for his points).
