Plasma Blastguns are evil when used correctly. I've lost so many Eldar and Chaos vehicles, and super heavies, over the years to Warhounds equipped with Plasma Blastguns that it's not funny. They are very dangerous in the hands of a canny opponent.
Hi!
No doubt. That's why I decided to make the alternate rules on the other thread. Plasma cannons and destructors are supposed to be BETTER than the blastgun, but aren't. The blastgun is supposed to be the short ranged "poor mans" plasma weapon, suited for warhounds hunting super heavies and other tough targets and like you I have seen them reap utter destruction over the years.
I just wanted other plasma weapons to be equally feared and more importantly worth the points. I think the alternate rules will stimulate more use of them, although they are still expensive and use lots of plasma.
