What's the final verdict on E-Webs?

I like upgrade that allows E-Webs to become suppressive. Has anyone tinkered with a nice speed 1 list for Imperials? I'd love to get Papa P, Vader, E-Webs, and Snows to just slowly creep along and dole out suppression.

I have 5 squads of snowtroopers and don't use my other Empire troops any more. I find that they are not, in fact, slow. This is because of their free shot after moving. They can move-shoot-move, which covers more distance than a normal stormtrooper or rebel squad that just does a regular move-shoot. They can also aim-move-shoot, move-shoot-dodge, move-move-shoot, etc. etc. It doesn't seem like it would, but that free shot after moving actually makes them very speedy.

I just thought of another thing about them. Replacing my bikes with several e-webs may allow me to reach "competitive" numbers of activations in my all-snow Imperial army. Hmm...
