i have the hellion models and quite like them however they just don't seem to live up to the fluff written about them

i have used them twice a while ago and both times they died horrifically

6 asaulted 2 necron scarabs and the scarabs killed them all so for me they have gone into the "absolute garbage do not ever use" pile
i was wondering if anyone had had any success with them.

I didn't vote since I don't own any hellion models and don't have the experience to critique. I am leaning in favor of them. They seem to be fast, their hellglaives can be used as both splinter rifle and close combat weapon in the same turn, which makes for +1 extra attack, add CC drugs and support with another unit. They might actually work. Then again, I haven't used them yet.

PS. I've only fought small take & Hold skirmishes where I sided up with Space Marines against Necrons and Tau. My Kabal did so-so against the Necrons and the Archon kicked butt! But he arrived too late in the game. DE units should be teamed with other units to support each other. Except for Talos, Wyches, and maybe Hellions, DE have no business in CC. Now, let me get off my soapbox.
