So as a brand new guard player, can someone tell me if mortars are shit HW teams? I've heard it said that autocannons are the best of all the worlds unless you need actual anti-armor. I ask because the thought of a mortar platoon makes me hard.
When I say brand new, I haven't even finished reading the rule book yet, and none of my models have even been primed.
Nathan Kelly
Mortars are shit because you can find stronger, more reliable, and approximately as cheap pieplates and cupcakes elsewhere. Autocannons are pretty much the only choice in Heavy Weapons teams.
If you want to indulge your mortar fetish, look to Wyverns specifically, but also the other artillery such as Basalisks and Griffons (As well as their stationary counterparts).

It's not a mortar specific fetish so much as I would say it's an indirect fire fetish. I acquired a basilisk from someone I know who have a lot of IG stuff but only plays filthy xenos. Does artillery have a place in most lists?
Zachary Richardson
So long as it's supported by blobs of guardsmen or ranks of tanks, artillery really shines. S9 AP3 Ordinance will eat everything short of 2+ armor save and AV14 alive, and even those units will feel pressured.
Wyverns excel at removing any infantry hiding in cover, which works great against everything you'd be wasting your time firing the Basilisk at.
Downsides include; minimum range requirements, Open topped chimera chassis, and target priority
Logan Martinez
With psykers, they're all good choices other than HBs. Prescience and Bring it Down turns 3-lascannon teams into monsters that WILL disable a vehicle that they shoot at.

where do you guys store all your minis when you are not using them?
