I just got 2 heavy weapons sqauds for christmas and am using them as suport for my HQ. One of them is going to be an anti-tank sqaud and I can't decide if I want lascanons or missle launchers.

I use lascannons just because of the extra strength. Also nice for taking out terminators as well. Missile launchers are more versatile given that they can be used against horde armies. But the thing is guard have a hard time hitting anything anyway, it would only add to your frustration if you had a hard time penetrating armour having managed to hit your target.

The ML is a good general purpose weapon but if your gonna kill tanks then take the Las cannons.

I play way too many horde armies so I tend to favor the Missle launcher myself.. even if I didnt though I would still take it over the lascannon due to its versitility, and the fact that I take a ton of plamsa to make up for my lack of mobile firepower .. in the end take what you think will help you the most though..

I like hvy bolters and Las cannons for my choice of hvy weapons. My friend uses Auto cannons and missile launchers.
I would say not to build them yet and just use the bases until you figure out what you want to play after using them in a few games.

But if he wants a dedicated AT team attached to his HQ then he's better off taking LC's.
I have a AT team armed with LC's and a FS team armed with AC's attached to my HQ. This gives me a good fire base. My troop squads have ML's as it makes them more versatile.

Nice Choice ... I'm Particular to lascannons myself Though I find Autocannons are nice Anti-Personal too ... especially on a Hydra .. - Evil Innocent Grin -
