More expensive than a Razorback! Lol.
Worthwhile for definite on your HQ choice, just don't see the benefit on the other two. 5 IG guys are not gonna last long under any decent firepower, even with FNP.
A couple of melta guns instead could pop a vehicle that wins you the game, although i'd probably keep the special weapons in the command squad light as i'd personally rather keep them at back giving out orders.
More firepower than a razorback though, packs a multilaser and heavy bolter as standard, and can have 5 models fire out of top hatch. I could always drop the special weapons altogether and take the 90 point special character upgrade, gives out 4 orders a turn, rather than 2, with a bigger command range. Thats a lot of twin-linked heavy weapons and rerolled cover saves a turn......
Might just give them a plasma gun then, and leave it at that. Will be taking the company standard though, and a vox operator, and will probably advance the HQ command up with the infantry to claim objectives later in the game, the extra orders and the company standard should help them finish off the straglers in an enemy force, along with all the firepower and support weapons i've managed to fit in
