They're excellent against Psykers etc too. D6 attacks means a reasonable
expectation of 3 hits - that's only 1/8 chance of survival for a
hero/save character. Use them for removing Psykers before your main
assault. Or taking out LRs.

you take them, he takes them out. If you don't, watch your Synapse
Creatures go Boom.
