Pacts have changed, you roll before you shoot somif you die from pact damage you can't shoot

Plague marines got decent flamers

[@calonfire]

The flamer strat ignores cover, that's the important bit

[@Xynth25]

For Veterans of the Long War, a gunline unit of Plague Marines is probably the best unit for the auto 6 shots on Torrent weapons, they get access to up to 2 heavy flamers and 2 regular flamers. The other interesting option I see is Terminators, if you pop the strat to give then Ignores Cover, the auto 6 on Torrent probably pushes you to take Heavy Flamers over the Autocannons on them.

I've watched each codex analysis on CZcams and i think I've enjoyed this one the most. I waited a couple of years to see the Iron Warriors detachment. And after all that, I may just be playing armored assault with Renegade Raiders. It's hard to say how a Legion *should* be playing. They're always leaving something out, and in the case of IW it's shooting buffs. Where are they??
