Haven't tried it yet but on paper I'm a big fan of slotting a Phobos Captain in with these guys in the Vanguard detachment. Getting a 2nd use of the +1 BS/+1 AP strat each turn and the good redeploy ability are attractive, and there's an enhancement that works like the Sgt's ability so you could put Las Fusils on all 3 eliminators. Effectively getting fire and fade can help protect these guys or let you double-move onto an objective.

It is a GW commentary on the rules@@Calvin_Coolage - so yeah, it is basically saying that is how the rule should be used.

Had them with a Phobos Librarian and Anvil Siege, with the +1 to wound they can threaten some tougher vehicles and monsters and the lone op + infiltration means you might not even have to move them from where you deploy them. Specially if you position something in a way that can easily fire back at whatever gets into the 12' range for shooting them. Maybe not THE best investment, but something fun that can make use of the Anvil detachment ability.

I’m running 2 units (2 las and instigator in each) alongside infiltrators and another infiltrating unit (often an assassin) - when the new scout. I’d releases for kill team I might shake that up, but the 2 eliminator teams have been doing good work for the points and I really rate their turn of speed when it’s needed

I've been dancing around with Eliminators and a Vindicare, something I want to try eventually is a Spectrus Kill Team with 2 Eliminators, 2 Suppressors, and a Incursor packed with a Phobos Librarian. Seems like a fun combo to have, just a redeploying brick of decent damage output that either can't be shot or is slightly harder to hit, plus there's always the Helix Gauntlet to add a bit more protection and worst comes to worse we have 5 spare bodies as meat shields

Ive made a Phobos only Raven Guard army after a few games I really feel these guys are the back bone of my 1k point army ( 1x Las fusil & Bolt carbine, 1 x Bolt sniper & Bolt carbine) I’m currently making a 2k army and adding in a 3rd squad of these (Las fusil & bolt carbine) to pack a punch. Once my opponent kills these though my army really has lost its bite.

I find Deathwatch buffs can really make the difference with these guys, especially where Las Fusils are concerned. Your Lethal Hits round can help them punch above their weight class if you need somethin' big taken out. Sustained hits gives you a better chance at landing Devastating Wounds. Stick a couple of Bolt Snipers in a Spectrus Squad and they also get access to DW ammo Stratagems. Precision Weapons with Anti-Infantry 2+ are nothing to sniff at.

I'm currently running Deathwatch in the crusade being run by my wargamming club. I've got 3 teams of eliminators with Las fusils in my list to give me some much needed anti-tank fire power. And I gotta say, I absolutely love these guys. They are able to do surprising amounts of damage to hard targets, are very cheap, and they have an extremely low threat profile. I mean, it's just three dudes. They have stealth, cover and are probably out of your range. Why would you bother focusing them when you have a 13 man kill team knocking on your door.

Probably running my (heavaly converted) eliminators as a legends scout sniper squad most of the time instead. Same 75 pts, for 4 scout sniper rifles and a missile launcher, with a psudo long operative special rule. I just like the idea of feilding 5 models instead of 3, and the special rule is fun :) If I can afford it pts wise then sure, running 2 eliminator squads instead for the extra power works to though.

Thanks for the video

I took a unit with a phobos captain because I wanted to test out his shenanigans in a game. I also gave him the vanguard ability that allowed them to move shoot move. It worked nicely. It also wasn't an ultra competitive game. But a unit of 3 las fusils and the captain was actually pretty dangerous to the elites he brought. I wish they would change the rule to say any unit with an instigator combine gives them the ability so you didn't have to spend points if you have a captain leading them.

I run mine in an Impulsor, but I don't do the double shoot cheese. They're still fun ad solid shooting.

Without special rule interactions, you can not (dis)embark out of or Or into vehicles during the shooting phase. It only allowed normally during the movement phase as part of your movement for the turn. (Or the vehicle is destroyed)

I feel like the eliminators are going to be slept on in the anvil detachment. 1cp to give them reroll wounds or crit hits on 5+ with sustained 1 if they’re stationary. Rerolling could really help them punch up against vehicles, or sustained could get that one or two extra hits with precision which just might be enough to kill that character. I fully plan on taking them in my deathwatch with this detachment, I don’t really care if it’s competitive or not, it just seems like a blast to play as an unyielding gun line.

Phobos lists unite! I'll be running 2 squads of Eliminators, one Las the other bolt. I'll be running hella Infiltrators and a small squad of Incursors. THEN I take an equal amount of Reivers to my Infiltrators.

Anvil fun: 2x elims remain stationary so get +1h/w and dev Ws. Then they move to get in an impulsor which also remained stationary. Total 8 lasfusil shots with +1 h/w. Will come up 1 game in 10 but hilarious if you can pull it off 😂

So could you do the trick with ratling snipers too? They have a move shoot move like the eliminators do

I use 2 squads in each army in 2k points 1 with normal snipers 1 with las fusil they do amazing everytime tried scouts and vindicare and they just do so much more

I play DEldar, and these guys tear my HQs apart.

Las fusils go great in ironstorm!

Very frustrating that GW keeps using monopole versions in box sets. I picked up the vanguard task force for the suppressors a while back - the eliminator came with only bolt sniper rifle - and no carbine for the SGT - and not even a good fit for the Las fusil bitz I picked up off ebay.

yesterday my 6 elims were pinned down and boutta get charged by a korn berserker squad, but my enemy forgot about climbing down walls, so my redemptor saved them while the elims proceeded to slowly kill angron throughout the game and winning it for me

Doesn’t it say in the rules that a unit cannot embark in a transport the same turn it disembarks? I could be wrong though. Either way great video as always

To be honest I think the eliminator squad has it easier now as before. The absence of the sniper scout squad is just it.

I'm a Deathwatch player, and I would've loved to use these in a Spectrus Kill Team, but ever since Gee Dubs confirmed that we can't use the Infiltrate keyword with the Kill Team's redeploy ability, it's a lot less attractive. I'd rather run these as a standard squad with Las Fusils and have them sit on a balcony in a tall building for the entire match, in order to utilize their devastating wounds ability in combination with Special Issue Ammo stratagems.

But the same rule to a vet player and someone that has seen it in action they see it a completely different way!?! So I’ll ask, so does that mean that if your “snipers” (these 3 guys) move at all in the game they lose those orders for the whole game? Or let’s just say they only move in the first round to get a better spot and you just got to the 3rd, 4th round….. do they still not have those keywords anymore? If they don’t, then they better have something that allows them to be put down out of the deployment zone!?! If not, that makes no sense!!!
