I was looking at some various marine codex's i have available, more specifically Belial since I have just started playing my DW. I refer to his point cost. 130 for a WS5 model with TH/SS. This kit cost around 160 for SW and BA. Sure you're down a WS, but careful placing in a unit and charging and he can avoid the better fighter of the recent codex, but is still nothing to scoff at.

I haven' got to the other weapon combos's but at his cost he seems a bargain to me. And troop termies you can equip however you choose for the most part, well that's the gravy.

What do y'all think?
