Im having trouble finalizing a list and it boils down to one issue.
I have a slot in my Heavy support. Currently i have 1 Mawloc and a unit of Biovores but i dont know whats going in that last one. Its definitely between either an Exocrine or a Second Mawloc so please no suggestions of Carnifex Mobs (id like to but cant find the points), Trygons (not much of a fan) or Tyrannofexes (I think the Exocrine out-shoots it).
The questions is which to go with? The list is currently pencilled in with an Exocrine so if i do change to a second Mawloc i have 40 points to play with but both give me a good AP2 Pie Plate on a sturdy body but...
Mawloc
+Pie Plate ignores Cover and hits Twice
+Comes from reserve so cant be taken out before it does its damage
+Can redeploy across the board quickly
-Is stuck in reserve, so may be late to show up.
-Misshap CAN work in my favour but will cost me a Mawloc from time to time but at least AFTER its done its damage.
-Isnt that special when its actually on the board.
Exocine
+More powerfull blast
+Large body to hide other units behind (Venomthropes)
+Starts on the Board so gets to work as soon as its in range
-Only medium range gun and poor Ballistic Skill if Mobile
-Can be focussed on and removed before it gets to do any damage
-Doesnt ignore cover so can be ineffective on heavy Cover boards.
Anything ive missed?
Id just like to get some opinions other than my own because im literally coin tossing right now.
