Steady crazy horse.
If all the nipples are rounded chances are the brake cylinders will need re furbishing as well....as obviously no one has bled the system for ages!! Your best bet is to remove brake cylinders and then, with them in a vice its nice and easy to get at them to have real go at the nipples. I have used heat and it does work but you will then have to fit new seals etc.
As has also been said these are your brakes...never great on a Landie at the best of times so if they lose efficiency you are really buggered! BIte the bullet and have the system torn down and re build it.

Because the brakes don't work?
Next time you heat em up take the pistons out first, stuff a wet rag into them and away you go
