obviously still romors but sounds logical, hurts the versatility of missile launchers a bit since its either the ground options OR FLAKK

it comes to AA missile launchers in the new codex .. I do not know, and this refers to the type of the missile destroyers or to those mentioned above.
Devastators can upgrade to take flakk missiles at +5 points per model, replaces Krak and Frag options.

so +5 Points to lose Versatility.  Ya bloody crap I will get along without Flakk if it means having to pay 20 points a model just for anti-air.

Actually, with Vanilla Marines, it's not that horrible....  As long as you're allowed to take for some of your Missile Launchers (as opposed to being required to take them for all), you can still Combat Squad them and have the 2 squads specialize against Flyers and non-Flyers.

A bit of a pain, being not as versatile as they can be, but not impossible to get around.

was thinking around the same thing and to be honest its not that bad, even if theres no flyers it still a str 7 shot that needs a 6 to hit. Yeah good chance they wont do much, but they still got the option of shooting light armor tanks when there are no flyers out
