Remember guys, Mosc is looking for how you base your infantry, not just a list of what you have. If there's a clear pattern of where people put the heavies on Warriors and Thunderers it'll help determine the stats for units.
Ok. I'm going to base mine according to the description from the SM squat book (Warlords).
Warriors:
Their description read "...They are formed from standard combat squads armed with lasguns and side arms, with one squat in every five-man squad carrying a heavy weapon such as missile launcher or heavy bolter..."
So basically I'll do 1 heavy weapons guy and 4 regular with lasguns.
Thunderers:
Are described as being special in that way that the whole unit consisted of (only) heavy weapon guys ("...either a heavy bolter, missile launcher or a lascannon..."). So I'm looking at either the whole unit with just heavies, probably 4 (to save minis), or 2 lasgun guys and 3 with heavy weapons. The latter because thunderers actually used to have 3 attacks which was better than even devastators who only had 2 attacks. Which btw is something I think we should represent in their EA stats. I remember all my gaming buddies were really afraid of my thunderers and usually made them a priority target, but that's really for another thread
Berserkers
Well obviously berserkers.
