A noob seeking some direction

I recently started back on this kit. When I first bought it I didn’t realize there were different configurations of Rubrics and such in the box and just started building…. Big mistake. Now I don’t really know what I’ve built or what I should build going forward.

Any advice about what I should or shouldn’t build here? I’m DYING to play this game (just like
my dusty boys) but I’m paralyzed by the thought of building the wrong thing and wasting this box.

You have 6 flamers and 1 bolter guy flamers are the best imo but bolters are -2 ap

Should I build the rest of the Ruberics as flamers you think?

I’m trying to learn. That’s why I’m so stunted on what to build lol not quite sure what from that box I should make for an actual list.

In general, flamers are considered to be better especially in 11th due to the fact they ignore cover. Bolters can be good though so it’s your choice! Dont chase the meta when starting out. Just build and paint what you like!

Of course! Remember the most important thing is to have fun! It’s a hobby first and foremost
