Wow, this is all just really bad. I'm thinking though, Steam Tank at least has 10 Wounds, not 2x3 for the same points, despite T6 will still have the same chances at being wounded at range... however, after taking down half the wounds, it's just a question of time till it pops.
I'm guessing two of each is my best bet.

Once again, SHOOT THEM (hellblaster) Waywatchers have a 30" range, and fire 10 shots. Helblaster has 24" range. Whether or not I start, I will not be firing at Waywatchers in the first round. So they have one or two rounds to pick away at my Helblaster. 10 shots => 20 shots (multi-shot), long range at a BS of 5 means they hit with a 6. Statiscially on average, that's three and a half wound rolls. Do those go against my crew? (T3) or the Machine? (T7) It’s 1 shot per WW. So if your opponent is running 10 yes that’s correct. MSU is 5 for them. 20ppm too, so like that’s expensive brother. |

Also remember dude, it’s a 6 turn game max. They can’t and won’t be shooting at the same stuff indefinitely. You WILL cause them wounds and WILL force action by putting cav or other stuff right in their faces. Plus, it’s a rare choice, they can’t take all that many in the grand scheme.
I hear you on the damage shooting can do. Especially in a Battle for the Pass situation, they can be just devastating by backing up a couple inches and firing, rinse/repeat the next turn too.
Stealing this from the USMC… do this my man “locate, close with and destroy the enemy by fire and maneuver, or repel the enemy assault by fire and close combat.”
Get up in their faces quickly, run them down, fire upon them, hit them with magic missiles.

Well… maybe not 6 max in some games actually, but you take my meaning I’m sure
