    Other than limited physical models, is there any reason you’d ever want to take less than max unit size if you still have to pay points for the max size?

    I guess to fit some units into poorly optimized transports? Any other reason now?

    I’ve definitely taken max-1 unit sizes in the past, when my list comes out to like 2,025 points lmao.

      It’s still a transport thing, but not a poorly optimised transport thing: You can fit 2 meganobz and an 8-man burna squad with 7 Burnas and only one Spanna in a Trukk. The extra burna and extra spanna might not matter much compared to having a second unit in the transport. (This is effected by the fact that spannas have been somehwat a downside of a mandatory upgrade - now that weapons are free I’m not sure how much a second kmb and a burna is worth vs the meganobz.)
