	Flash Gitz aren't a very popular choice, almost always losing out to Lootas for a player's Heavy Support slot. And up until 7th Edition, it wasn't hard to see why; Lootas reliably put out more Dakka from further away at a higher S value than a Flash Git for fewer points. 7th Ed gave the Gits a much needed buff, taking them from "assault 1, buy an upgrade for assault 2" to just "assault 3 at all times". The most interesting thing that Flash Gits have always had was the fact that [[Snazzgun\|Snazzguns]] change their AP value each time they shoot by the roll of a d6; this means half the time they rip MEQs apart like so many 'roided-up pinatas.

	Now in 8th they lost Assault weapons for Heavy 3 and have BS 4+ (3+ on the Kaptin). That's honestly pretty amazing, because it means if they stay put they’re actually as good at shooting as Grots. Unfortunately they’re still hampered by relatively short range.		Now in 8th they lost Assault weapons for Heavy 3 and have BS 4+ (3+ on the Kaptin).

	If you’re dead set on bringing them, bring a unit of 5 in a [[Trukk]] with [[Kaptin_badrukk\|Badrukk]] and an [[Grot#Battlefield_Roles\|Ammo Runt]]. You get 5 re-rolls to hit in addition to Badrukk allowing re-rolls of 1 to hit. And then on a 6 they have a chance to shoot again at the nearest unit. Note that this is subject to 8E’s weird perceptions and assumptions about “nearest unit." In other words, you have to shoot at the nearest unit, but if you can’t actually see them ([[Genestealers]] on the other side of a building) the shot is wasted; it doesn’t just go to the nearest unit within LOS.

			Unlike [[Lootas]], who will happily pinch suitably killy guns from other races, Flash Gitz focus their attention on getting enough [[Teef]] to pay the [[Mekboy]]z for the [[/k/\|fanciest kustom Shootas they can manage]]. The requirement of wealth is one of the reasons why most Flash Gitz initially tend to belong to the Bad Moonz.

Their Nobz on the other hand, are rich enough to also afford [['Eavy Armour]].

	Because of their extravagant lifestyle, Flash Git mobs will often take their place among bands of [[Freebooterz]]. Fighting as mercenaries allows successful Gitz to accumulate vast sums of wealth in a short space of time. Even better, they can gleefully spend it all on themselves without a [[Warboss]] around to take his cut. With teef galore flowing into their coffers, successful mobs of Flash Gitz will soon be riding through the void in their very own [[Kill Kroozer]] while wielding the kind of firearms that Deathskulls [[Lootas]] can only dream of stealing. Flash Gitz sport profusions of piercings, jewelry, furs, glyph-plates, brightly colored pirate garb and outlandish [[Hats\|hats]]. Even their [[Grot]] minions traipse around with gold-buttoned frock coats while bragging loudly of their masters' wealth. All of this showy nonsense does absolutely nothing to hide the hulking, muscular bulk and bestial lethality of the Flash Gitz themselves.

	Because of their extravagant lifestyle, Flash Git mobs will often take their place among bands of [[Freebooterz]]. Fighting as mercenaries allows successful Gitz to accumulate vast sums of wealth in a short space of time. Even better, they can gleefully spend it all on themselves without a [[Warboss]] around to take his cut. With teef galore flowing into their coffers, successful mobs of Flash Gitz will soon be riding through the void in their very own [[Kill Kroozer]] while wielding the kind of firearms that Deathskulls [[Lootas]] can only dream of stealing. Flash Gitz sport profusions of piercings, jewelry, furs, glyph-plates, brightly colored pirate garb and outlandish [[Hats\|hats]]. Even their [[Grot]] minions traipse around with gold-buttoned frock coats while bragging loudly of their masters' wealth. All of this showy nonsense does absolutely nothing to hide the hulking, muscular bulk and bestial lethality of the Flash Gitz themselves.
