Heavy intercessors not being a heavy tactical squad with an assortment of heavy weapons to choose from is such a miss for me tell me they wouldnt looks awsome with plasma cannons

I love heavy intercessors, but i wish they didn't need 3 requisites for their ability to activate. 1. Be on the objective 2. Have Control of the Objective 3. Be attacked by damage 1 weapons.

I'm a little excited to run anvil siege with 15-20 heavy intercessors into the new mission deck but haven't gotten to play any games yet. Still working out how I want to package them, giving 10 a 6+ FNP seems like it could be fun.

Regular intercessors with a librarian can be tricky to shift and hes only a 65pt add on. Assault dudes with a chaplain can punch up a little. I just wish the heavy guys had a choice of ammo or something to make them interesting...

honestly with the impending bye for grey hunters and blood claws, it is amazing to see them both shine in the current missions. been taking both and not looking back. but you have to slap ulric in with the bloodclaws to make them worth it.

Definitely, Ulrik makes them shine, my only concern at that point is lack of AP

Heavy Intercessors have an elite troop statline except their weapons are very underwhelming. They could be so good if they had a little more damage.

I think Greyhunters are by far the best choice. The reason is the Terminator Pack Leader with a Powerfist and Cyclone Missile. In Champions of Russ they are Characters that shoot Missiles and could fulfill Sagas for 115.

I genuinely think Heavy Intercessors would be solid by increasing their damage +1 on objectives and get rid of their defensive ability. It could also apply to any leader attached to them. And makes Halving damage enemies sad. 😂
