My question is whether Tesla is worth it on the 7-man unit (in bold). The other 3 units with StormTeks are obviously better with Gauss since they have to get within Rapid fire range for the Stormtek to be in range, plus all the guns in the squad can take out vehicles.
My dilemma about the 7-man unit is that I plan to get their unit out of the Scythe in a way that puts Imotekh within 1" of an enemy so that he can use his Staff (sort of like a mini, 1 turn Death Ray). With the Immortals so close, I would think that double shots from Gauss would be better, even though better AP would not matter (since I will obviously be targeting a unit with 2+ or 3+ saves).
However, the Tesla gives me the opportunity to move away from the rest of the army should I vaporize my initial target.
Thoughts?
